Rose City Physical Therapy
AlterG in Portland
Recover Faster. Train Smarter. Move Without Limits.
At Rose City Physical Therapy in Portland, OR, we offer advanced rehabilitation with the AlterG® Anti-Gravity Treadmill. This cutting-edge technology uses NASA-developed differential air pressure to reduce your body weight while walking or running, making recovery easier, safer, and more effective.
Whether you’re healing from surgery, managing chronic pain, or training as an athlete, AlterG therapy helps you move without the stress and strain of full body weight.
What Is AlterG?
The AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill is a revolutionary rehabilitation and performance tool that:
- Reduces body weight impact by up to 80%
- Promotes faster recovery from injury or surgery
- Allows pain-free movement and exercise
- Improves mobility, strength, and endurance
By precisely controlling body weight load, AlterG makes it possible to walk or run earlier, safer, and longer than with traditional rehab methods.
Who Benefits From AlterG Therapy?
