A substrate treating method includes measuring an alignment state of a substrate placed on a hand of a transfer unit that transfers the substrate, transferring the substrate to a substrate alignment unit by the transfer unit when the alignment state of the substrate is faulty, aligning a location of the substrate by the substrate alignment unit, and temporarily correcting the location of the substrate before the substrate is loaded on the substrate alignment unit when it is measured in the measuring of the alignment state that the alignment state of the substrate exceeds a sensor reading range.
