Point of contact Michele Devine, Contract Specialist, e-mail: michele.g.devine.ctr@us.army.mil The following verbiage is directly from the Justification and Approval for sole source and is posted in accordance with FAR 5.102(a)(6). The Alter G is the only anti-gravity treadmill that uses an advanced pressure regulation system. AlterG owns all rights and patents to anti-gravity treadmills. The technology was developed at NASA and further developed by Alter G for medical rehabilitation. Users can choose to reduce their effective body weight by as much as 80% (in as small as 1% increments). AlterG offers the only treadmill that uses differential air pressure to incrementally and progressively permit patients with lower extremity injuries to exercise in a stress free anti-gravity environment. The AlterG anti-gravity treadmill supports full range motion for upper and lower body, keeps patients in place, maintains lateral support preventing falls associated with rehabilitation. AlterG anti-gravity rehabilitative exercise treadmill equipment considerably lowers the stress on healing leg muscles, tendons, and hips typically seen with normal treadmills.
