Journey Forward adds anti-gravity treadmill

Canton’s non-profit spinal cord care organization, Journey Forward, has just invested in a state-of-the-art AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill for their patient care.

AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmills use patented NASA technology that allows for precise partial weight-bearing running, unweighing up to 80 percent of your body weight. Simply put, it’s like walking (or running) on the moon.

These rehabilitation treadmills offer a revolutionary approach to rehab, allowing those recovering from injuries or surgery, those who are non-mobile, and those with neurological conditions to rehabilitate safely. Those without the use of their lower extremities can be manipulated by a PT technician, allowing for exercise and muscle movement they normally wouldn’t be able to attain.

Journey Forward is located at 755 Dedham Street in Canton. For more information about the organization and its unique exercise program, go to www.journey-forward.org.
