Alter G Treadmill Therapy
This innovative rehabilitation solution uses NASA-derived technology to reduce body weight impact during treadmill exercise. By unloading stress on joints and muscles, patients achieve faster recovery from injuries like hamstring tears and knee fractures while maintaining cardiovascular fitness. The technology supports both rehabilitation and performance enhancement through adjustable weight-bearing parameters.
Orthopedic Rehabilitation
Specialized treatment for musculoskeletal injuries and post-surgical recovery combines manual therapy with functional movement patterns. Certified ASTYM providers address soft tissue restrictions while developing customized exercise programs to restore mobility after joint replacements, fractures, and ligament damage through evidence-based rehabilitation protocols.
Sports Medicine
Comprehensive care for sports-related injuries incorporates gait analysis, bike fitting, and performance training. The program addresses acute injuries and chronic conditions affecting athletes, utilizing Stride Smart technology for movement pattern analysis and developing sport-specific rehabilitation plans to prevent re-injury and enhance athletic performance.
Spine Treatment
Specialized spinal care applies Applied Functional Science principles to address back and neck pain through manual mobilization techniques. Treatment integrates movement-based assessments to identify compensatory patterns while developing functional exercise programs that improve posture, reduce nerve compression, and restore spinal mobility through non-invasive approaches.
Gait Analysis
Advanced 3D movement analysis identifies biomechanical inefficiencies affecting walking and running patterns. Using Stride Smart technology, specialists evaluate cadence, symmetry, and ground reaction forces to develop corrective exercise programs that improve mobility, reduce pain, and prevent injuries through optimized movement mechanics.
