Gravity Fit

Revolutionizing Core Stability and Posture

GravityFit is an innovative exercise and rehabilitation system designed to enhance core stability, posture, and functional movement. Developed based on principles of biomechanics and neuroscience, GravityFit utilizes specialized equipment and exercises to activate and strengthen the deep muscle systems responsible for maintaining optimal posture and alignment. 

The system emphasizes the importance of gravity as a natural form of resistance, encouraging the body to align and stabilize against it. GravityFit exercises are designed to be integrated into everyday activities, making it a practical and effective approach to improving core strength and posture. 

Key components of the GravityFit system include: 

GravityFit TPro

A versatile tool that provides feedback and resistance to help users engage their core muscles, improve posture, and enhance proprioception. 

  • GravityFit Ribcage Anchor:

    Designed to stabilize the ribcage, promoting proper spinal alignment and efficient breathing patterns. 

  • GravityFit Spine Ball

    Used to activate the deep spinal muscles, improving segmental stability and functional movement. 

G-suit

The GravityFit G-Suit is a full body suit designed to enhance core stability, posture, and functional movement through the application of axial load (compression) to the body.

The G-Suit uses principles of biomechanics and neuroscience to activate deep muscle systems that are crucial for maintaining optimal posture and alignment.

Here’s how we utilize GravityFit

At KNOSIS Physiotherapy & Wellness, GravityFit is seamlessly integrated into our physical therapy sessions to provide comprehensive and effective treatment for a variety of conditions.  

Assessment and Baseline Measurement 

  • Initial assessment to identify postural imbalances and core stability deficits. 

  • Baseline measurements to track progress and tailor the treatment plan. 

  

Core Activation and Strengthening

  • Use of the GravityFit TPro to engage and strengthen deep core muscles. 

  • Exercises targeting the transverse abdominis, multifidus, and pelvic floor muscles to enhance core stability. 

  

Postural Correction and Alignment

  • GravityFit Ribcage Anchor exercises to stabilize the ribcage and improve spinal alignment. 

  • Techniques to promote proper posture and reduce strain on the musculoskeletal system. 

  

Functional Movement Training

  • Incorporation of GravityFit Spine Ball exercises to activate deep spinal muscles and improve segmental stability. 

  • Functional exercises that integrate core stability and postural control into everyday movements. 

  

Breathing Pattern Optimization 

  • Exercises to enhance diaphragmatic breathing and improve respiratory efficiency. 

  • Techniques to coordinate breath with movement, promoting relaxation and reducing tension. 

  

Progressive Training and Adaptation

  • Gradual progression of exercises to challenge and advance patients' core stability and postural control. 

  • Adaptation of GravityFit exercises to suit individual needs and rehabilitation goals. 

  

Ongoing Monitoring and Adjustment

  • Regular reassessment to monitor progress and make necessary adjustments to the treatment plan. 

  • Continuous feedback and support to ensure optimal outcomes and long-term benefits. 

  

By incorporating GravityFit into our physical therapy sessions, KNOSIS PT provides patients with a powerful tool to improve their core strength, posture, and overall functional movement, leading to better health and enhanced quality of life.
