Extensor: The Physio App

Hello Product Hunters 👋 We're really excited to be here for our first launch! Extensor is aiming to improve physio patients home exercise adherence, getting clients involved in their recovery with 100% personalised HEPs and ultimately speeding up recovery. ⭐ Personalise your home exercise plans Written instructions or stock videos are not the answer, when each of your patients need personalised treatment to achieve optimal results. With Extensor you can record patients doing their exercise in the practice, so that they don't forget what you asked them to do and can follow their own example. ⭐ Patient exercise videos Patients can track their progress in their companion app. When it's time to complete an exercise, they can review the example video you made together and then record themselves completing the exercise. ⭐ Home exercise review Check that your patients are doing their exercises - and doing them right. You can review videos recorded by your patients and give feedback in your own time. Studies show that non-adherence to home exercise programmes is as high as 50-65% for general muscoskeletal conditions. Your patients' lives are busier than ever, so it's no surprise to hear that they don't have time for their exercises or aren't be able to fit the exercise programme into their daily routine or work schedule. Some just plain forget. For others the challenge might be a motivational one and they don't believe in their own abilities enough to understand that they can achieve results by completing their programme. These challenges can be even greater for patients that are less physically active or lack social support. Patients who exercise between sessions are likely to recover faster, and less likely to re-injure themselves. Home exercise programmes (HEPs) are an opportunity for patients to take control of their own recovery; motivating them and helping them to feel more involved in their treatment. The HEP therefore acts as an extension of the treatment you provide; helping patients to help themselves and maintain the improvements they've made while under your care. It is also a way of allowing continuity between visits, and can reduce the number of sessions required. Each of your patients have unique needs, but there are some things you can do to help all of them improve their home exercise adherence. ✔ Provide patients with clear verbal instructions and videos of themselves performing the prescribed exercises ✔ Allow patients to record their home exercises so that the therapist can review them and make sure they are being performed optimally ✔ Involve your patients in the treatment process and motivate them to take responsibility for their recovery 🙏 We would love to hear your thoughts and feedback! 🎁 For supporting us on Product Hunt, here's 20% off: iOS: https://apps.apple.com/redeem/?c...
