Experience Faster Recovery with the AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill at Leading Edge Physiotherapy Landmark Kelowna

What Is the AlterG Treadmill?

The AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill is a revolutionary rehabilitation and training tool that uses NASA-developed differential air pressure technology to reduce the impact of running and walking. By precisely adjusting body weight support, patients can move naturally with less stress on joints, muscles, and healing tissues. At Leading Edge Physiotherapy Landmark we’re proud to be the only physiotherapy clinic in the Okanagan offering the AlterG treadmill to help patients recover faster, safer, and with more confidence.

Benefits of Training on the AlterG Treadmill

1. Accelerated Injury Recovery

Whether you’re recovering from a sports injury, post-surgery rehab, or chronic joint pain, the AlterG allows you to walk or run at a fraction of your body weight. This reduces pain and protects healing tissue while still keeping you active.

2. Pain-Free Mobility

Patients with arthritis, hip or knee replacements, or tendon injuries can move more comfortably. The AlterG provides a safe environment to rebuild strength and range of motion without the fear of falling or overloading painful joints.

3. Athletic Performance & Return to Sport

For runners and athletes, the AlterG is the ultimate tool to maintain fitness while rehabbing. By gradually increasing weight-bearing load, it allows athletes to safely progress toward full running, reducing downtime and speeding up the return-to-sport process.

4. Confidence & Safety

The supportive design gives patients confidence to move without fear of re-injury. It’s also an excellent option for seniors looking to stay active in a low-impact environment.

Who Can Benefit from the AlterG?

Post-surgical patients (ACL, hip, knee, ankle, foot surgeries or fractures)

Athletes recovering from stress fractures, sprains, or tendon injuries

Individuals with neurological conditions affecting mobility

People managing chronic pain, arthritis, or balance issues

Runners training through injuries who need low-impact running options.
