All,

I am looking for suggestions for an unweighting device (adult, over a

treadmill). Please advise.

Alter-G Treadmill is a very effective piece of equipment. Might be more than

what you are looking for but they are fantastic.

Mark,

We use the LiteGait, which can be used over the treadmill as well as over

ground.

That LiteGait is the best dollar-value of all of the systems in my opinion. So

much so that I used to teach continuing education for them. Give Dr. Amir Seif

a call, they are great about getting groups of interested clinicians together,

shipping out the equipment, and doing an inservice.
