  • Improve strength, flexibility, and function

  • Restore mobility and independence
  • Prevent future injury or decline

Therapy may include targeted exercises, hands-on techniques, education, and guidance to support your recovery at home and beyond.

State-of-the-art Technology

Waverly Health Center’s therapists use the Alter G Anti-Gravity Treadmill to help patients regain mobility, develop strength and fitness, and increase range of motion and natural movement – all while minimizing stress on injuries. The Alter G treadmill comfortable supports the user and “unweights” them by as much as 80%.

The Alter G can be used for:

  • Rehab after an injury or surgery
  • Rehab after total joint replacement
  • Gait training and strengthening
  • Strengthening and conditioning in a fall-safe environment
  • Weight-loss programs
  • Injury prevention during sport specific conditioning and fitness improvement programs
