Texas Physical Therapy Specialists Helps Patients Recover With AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill
(San Marcos, TX – July 24, 2014)
Texas Physical Therapy Specialists’ (TexPTS) San Marcos clinic is pleased to announce the installation of the AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill, a revolutionary technology that is often used by professional athletes to continue training stress-free while recovering from injury.
The treadmill, which was installed at the clinic in July 2014, uses technology created by NASA to enable faster rehabilitation and safer conditioning while removing up to 80% of the weight normally included in these activities. The AlterG’s pressurized enclosure provides counterforce to a person’s weight, greatly reducing the impact force to the musculoskeletal system.
“We’re thrilled to be able to offer this cutting-edge technology to our patients,” said Dr. Chris Baker, DPT, DC, MS, DACBN, and San Marcos Clinic Director. “We constantly look for ways to get our patients back on the move more quickly and effectively and this treadmill certainly provides us with the opportunity to do so. We’ve received great feedback so far and look forward to seeing the continued progress our clients make with the help of the AlterG.”
Patients at TexPTS’ San Marcos clinic can expect to be seen within 24 hours of referral by an expert in injury prevention like Dr. Baker. To make an appointment at the clinic, located at 2550 Hunter Road, Suite 1104, call (512) 396-5122. Services at TexPTS’ San Marcos clinic include general orthopedics, sports medicine, and low back pain management.
