Hi everyone, co-creators of Physio Health here! Working long hours in front of a laptop made us built this digital coach - to fit in mini stretches and meditation exercises to help us reset and gift ourselves a healthy break!
We then added a small social network and a rewards network for extra motivation to get us moving. So as you run, cycle, walk, complete healthy reminders you get points you can spend on the WellMiles rewards network – like airmiles but for wellness. You can also track and like your friend’s healthy activities.
Our team is quiet diverse with physiotherapists, yoga instructors, psychologists, gamers. We are all crazy about solving this question of how to get people moving.
Please comment and let us know what parts you find helpful and what else could help motivate you individually. We really need your help!
Product Hunt members can download the “Physio Health” app on iOS. Sign up using access code: HUNTNOW.
Let us know if you have questions!
Really interesting concept, I'm an avid Apple Watch user and love the idea of gaining rewards other than taking care of my health. Why did you choose to take into account only steps and walking/running? Any plans on supporting the rest of workouts included with the workout app? I row indoors everyday and currently I wouldn't get any "WellMiles" for these workouts.
@piero_ruiz Thank you! Yes our walking and running integrations are only a start. We wanted to be able to gift the points to relatively more trackable activities. We want to increase our integrations - so hopefully yes. Please keep us posted
@piero_ruiz We are trying to figure out how to reward self reported data.. Are there any apps where you log your workouts so that we can communicate with that app with an api, pull the data and give rewards?

@firdevs You can fetch Active Energy directly from the Health App via a background query from HealthKit, pretty much the same way the Activity app reads workouts you did with apps such as Strava or Freeletics. This way you can read the workouts done by apps that integrate directly with Health without having to worry about compatibility issues down the line.
Congratulations on the launch! Are you going to support MyFitnessPal? I've used the Physioh app and it's pretty awesome but I find that since I'm so locked into MyFitnessPal (been a power user for 3+ years) as a way of meal planning, creating exercise schedules, tracking daily macronutrients, as well as, using the social network for getting advice on cutting and bulking, it makes it hard to track calories in/calories out. I do see myself doing the reminders from Physioh but I'd like to actually put those activities into MyFitnessPal as way of tracking how many calories I'm burning on these strides, stretches, as well as, the amount of water I'm drinking on a day over day basis.
@jbueza Thank you Jaime! I used myfitnesspal too for some time. Not sure if you'll burn ton of calories from meditation but it will help bring mind and body balance.
@jbueza thanks for the feedback Jaime! We are planning to integrate with MyFitnessPal to give you points if you are hitting your calorie goals on their platform.. We will think about giving them calories burnt data for doing our exercises..
Hey PH!
Physio Health is an app that delivers 1-2 minute meditation and yoga exercises you can do during the day to de-stress and break up prolonged periods of sitting.
They integrate with Fitbit, Jawbone, Apple Health, Google Fit, Strava, Runkeeper and Swarm to give you points for running, cycling, walking and checking into the gym and doing their mini exercises.
You can spend the points on prizes that range from discounts on electronics to cleaning services.
Physio Health is on iOS and it’s free for Product Hunt users with the code HUNTNOW.
@ray_sturm we have enjoy.com so you can get $50 off your apple tv or jawbone up or get $30 off handy house cleaning or discounts at gym studios. They are in the rewards tab :)
