ALTERG VIA

The AlterG Via Anti-Gravity Treadmill™ opens new and innovative data-driven physical therapy and training possibilities. Now, you can take your recovery and fitness to the next level.

The Via Anti-Gravity Treadmill™ delivers physical rehab and training benefits you can’t get any other way. Combining patented, NASA Differential Air Pressure (DAP) technology, an intuitive touchscreen interface, real-time gait analytics (OPTIONAL), and live video monitoring (STANDARD), Via enables body weight supported walking, running, and closed-kinetic chain exercise like never before.

Premier Anti-Gravity Treadmill for pain-free physical rehab and training.
Uses air to comfortably and precisely unweight (using air)to as little as 20% of body weight in 1% increments.
Reduces impact and gravitational forces without compromising natural biomechanics.
Integrates gait analytics and live digital video monitoring for data-driven improvement.

 

 

measure the effects of gravitational loading and unloading while providing simple, direct visual feedback on gait symmetry and pain levels – helping clinicians to see the direct effects of unweighting and make corrections in real time.

• Weight Bearing Symmetry: Improves weight shifting and reduces risk of pain and joint stress from overuse of the unaffected leg.
• Step Length Symmetry: Improves symmetry to help increase walking speed, encourage more efficient gait, and reduce fall risk.
• Stance Time Symmetry: Helps users correct asymmetries to normalize stance time and allow for proper swing phase of gait.
• Cadence: Cadence improvements can lead to faster gait, better mobility, and improved health.
• Pain Recording: Correlating gait mechanics and unweighting with patient-reported pain scores helps to establish optimal parameters for therapy.

 

 

Via incorporates Live Video Monitoring to help users see and understand gait anomalies they may not feel. Now you can quickly identify and control the effects of unweighting on gait to achieve specific rehab and training goals.

• Showing patient gait asymmetries
• Enable on the fly correction to gait and stride
• Monitor front Camera Views
• Analyze: prevent bad habits or future injuries by correcting in real - time

The AlterG Assistant makes it easy to maximize your time and productivity with pre-programmed, fully automated therapy sessions and simple tools for developing your own library of user-customized experiences.

Why AlterG gait treadmill

• Patients and athletes move unrestricted and pain free
• Real time gait analytics and live video feedback
• Fall safe environment
• Gait and balance allows normal gait

Orthopedics: Earlier weight-bearing exercise while protecting sensitive healing tissues

Neurological: Support motor learning in a safe environment

Sports Performance: Limit downtime by training through injuries and enabling a return to sport in better condition, earlier post surgery training, provide objective data to measure progress and enhance motivation.
