Alter G
Alter G is an advanced anti-gravity treadmill that lowers a person's body weight to reduce impact on their lower body. It is used by many elite sporting teams and orthopaedic surgeons to help speed up recovery from injury and surgery.
Spire Little Aston Hospital is the only place in the West Midlands to have an Alter G that is available for public use.
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy is a treatment form that involves shock waves being passed through the skin to the injured part of the body. This prompts the body to respond naturally by increasing blood circulation, the number of blood vessells and therefore metabolism in the injured tissue, and accelerates the healing process. It is used to treat a range of injuries including tennis elbow and shoulder pain and heel pain.
