"The Pioneer in strength training utilizing the Adeli Suit."


Intensive Suit Therapy
Fitness Training Programs  |  Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Our intense exercise program consists of a two-on-one ratio, a skilled professional and an assistant both trained in adaptive fitness therapy. Depending on the patient needs, the program is 3 - 4 week session with the patient being seen 5 days per week for 4 hours per day. The intense program focuses on strengthening & flexibility with the use of massage therapy, Adeli Suit "Intensive Suit therapy", universal exercise unit, and progressive resistance exercises. Programs are individualized for specific needs. This intense program is ideal for those who want to enhance & improve developmental & functional abilities (ex: balance & coordination, gait, etc.). Increasing intensity of physical fitness therapy for a short period of time shows improvement in functional measures, mild-to-moderate or severe motor deficits, for example, cerebral palsy and related disabilities.

Every day brings another success story at Allternative Gym.
History of the Adeli Suit Therapy  
  • Originated as a tool for cosmonauts to wear while in space, to prevent the unwanted effects of a reduced-gravity environment
  • Acts as an exoskeleton to provide continuous joint compression and proprioceptive input to the body while wearing
  • The input from the suit sends signals to the brain to facilitate a motor response from the CNS
  • This response reeducates specific muscles in new movement patterns while the body is in correct alignment to improve motor function
  • The bungees allow the body to be in correct postural alignment and provide continuous tactile stimulation to desired muscle groups
  • They also provide resistance to all muscle groups during movement for strengthening through their entire range of motion
Benefits of the Adeli Suit Therapy
