Full Press Release Details

Recently ReWalk Robotics™ announced the acquisition of AlterG ® Inc., a global industry leader in innovative rehabilitation technology and the makers of the AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill™. Using unique gravity-defying technology AlterG has been able to redefine what’s possible in physical rehabilitation and training. Their Anti-Gravity Treadmill systems augment physical deficits and increase mobility to improve orthopedic rehabilitation, the management of neurological and chronic conditions, active aging, and athletic performance. At ReWalk Robotics, we share a similar mission of enhancing quality of life for individuals with injury and disability through innovative technologies that enable mobility and wellness in rehabilitation and daily life. We are thrilled to add the AlterG products to the ReWalk family, uniting these two businesses creates a larger team that will allow us to better support all our customers, both in the clinic and at home.

What is an AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill?

Since 2005, the world-famous AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill has changed the way athletes and diverse patient populations rehabilitate and train. The AlterG features patented NASA -inspired Differential Air Pressure (DAP) technology, a precise air calibration system based on the user’s actual body weight. Apart from its normal treadmill functions, the AlterG also has a precision pressure-controlled chamber that gently lifts the patient by degrees, reduc ing gravitational load and body weight in precise 1% increments . This allows AlterG enables both patients and athletes to move in new ways with finely calibrated levels of support to improve stability and reduce pain during gait rehabilitation.

Who Does the AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill Help? The AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill can be found in over 4,000 facilities around the world and has helped millions safely and consistently reach their goals and achieve better outcomes. A wide variety of patient populations can benefit from the AlterG systems to recover mobility, improve wellness, and enhance physical performance, making these sol an excellent complementary product to contribute to ReWalk Robotics’ growing presence as the leader in making innovative rehabilitative technologies accessible to patients and clinicians. While AlterG’s Anti-Gravity Treadmill is perhaps most widely known as being a cornerstone in the training and recovery of elite athletes and a standard tool for supporting gait rehabilitation following orthopedic injury or surgery, , this technology has also become increasingly critical in supporting a broad range of clinical applications, including recovery and management of neurological disease or injury. Some ways AlterG can have a positive impact on NeuroRehabilitation outcomes include Enhanced motor learning and quicker access to endurance, strength and gait quality improvements through increased access to treatment volume Access to varied and increased training intensities due to a virtually fall-proof environment Improved patient tolerance and comfort during sessions Also in alignment with ReWalk’s historic focus on supporting clinical research and evidence-based practice, AlterG has compiled a growing body of research over its nearly two decades on the market, including protocols spanning orthopedics, sports medicine, neurological disease, chronic condition management, and much more.
