Ft. Bragg
  The physical therapy clinic at Fort Bragg was looking to purchase an unweighting system for their facility. They were not interested in harness systems because they are too restrictive and their patients need something they can get in and out of easily on their own. They have a pool for therapeutic use, but as the Major who is the head physical therapist pointed out, “Soldiers need to run.” The advantage of the G-Trainer for them was that it is easy to adjust weight in precise increments, and the comfort during use made the G-Trainer the easy choice for Fort Bragg. Soldiers are using the G-Trainer for everything from ankle to knee to spine injuries and post surgery care.
