It can be a roller coaster of an experience to go through the process of rehabilitation following injury or surgery (or both).  Danny is a client at Balance and he  has actually set up his own blog detailing his particular journey.

Kieron Dyer has joined the list of elite performers who are benefiting from the G-trainer. Dyer of West Ham United has recently begun using it as part of his long rehabilitation process following his broken leg during a football match in August 2007. So reports the Evening Standard tonight.

It has been introduced to him by his physiotherapist following a further setback of a stress fracture in his shin.

Balance brought the G-trainer in from the US the same week that Manchester United and Manchester City introduced the anti-gravity treadmill to their players for rehabilitation, strength and conditioning. Our aim is for all those who are not Premiership footballers to take advantage of all that this technology can offer those needing in jury rehabilitation and fitness.

  • Speed for all sports
  • Strength for all sports
  • Power for all sports
  • Running performance for every distance from 400 metres to marathon, ultra distance and triathlon.
  • Return to all sports after almost any lower limb injury
  • Return to running after almosy any lower limb operation
  • effective anaerobic intervals even for those who experience joint discomfort with impact
