Well guided workout with good results. I have been using the app consistently for a few months. I’m doing the “neck” workout. The workout is 5-8 exercises, guided by a rhythmic tone. I start the exercise and close my eyes to follow the tones. Becomes almost meditative for me. This is not a cardio workout- but focused on flexibility and targeted muscle strengthening for the neck and upper back. Includes educational readings. I find this to be a well constructed program that has helped me physically and gives information worth thinking about. Importantly- the program is working for me. My arthritic neck and shoulders hurt less and my range of motion has increased. I am staying with the program because it doesn’t take long, I’m feeling better, and I learned I can do something positive to minimize and manage my discomfort without reaching for the Tylenol 😀 About a year later: I stopped doing the Hinge program after a hip replacement limited my mobility for activity for a number of weeks. After 3 months I recognized that I missed the program - my old symptoms of stiffness and limited range of motion were creeping back into my neck and shoulders. Feeling better back on the program.

Staying healthy with Hinge Health. I am happy that this program had been offered to me after seeing a Orthopedic Doctor for my back pain. In December of last year I could barely walk. After 3 sessions of physical therapy, I was better and could walk much better, but I found it hard to stick with the 3 redundant exercises. I received an offer to participate in the Hinge Health program at no cost through my Health Insurance. I am so glad that I accepted the offer! I am exercising my back on a regular basis (at home, takes just a small amount of time, at a convenient time for me and my schedule, and at NO COST) I am mostly pain free every day. I have several exercises that I can do on my own without equipment when I start to feel back pain. I also have a consultant that checks in on me and my progress daily. She is there to offer support and always cheers me on when I complete the daily exercise program!

Far Exceeding Expectations!. Hinge Health was recommended to me for the chronic pain I have experienced in my right hand for almost two years. I did not expect that online therapy would make such a difference. Hinge Health was able to assess the area of pain, connect me with the appropriate exercises, give me accompanying articles that focus on where I’m at and what i’m going through, seek feedback about my current level of pain and allow me to connect with therapists who are knowledgeable and demonstrate care about me and my situation. I was given the opportunity to decide how frequently I would do the exercise program they recommended. I opted to do them 6 days a week and actually I’ve followed the program 7 days a week missing only one day. I recommend being All In for the best results, I am amazed at the pain relief and strength I’ve experienced. The exercises are totally doable, the video clips instruct how each exercise is to be done, they don’t take a lot of time, exercises are done in the comfort of your home and feedback is readily available. My hand pain and outlook are much improved since I started using Hinge Health.

Better than in person physical therapy. I hesitated to start this program because I have been to physical therapy three different times with little to no success. Previous therapist rushed me out of therapy leaving me to deal with pain and lack of mobility. With three sprained backs, two bad knees, and a lifelong list of small injuries. I had my doubts. But I saw immediate improvement with Hinge Therapy. I was able to sleep through the night for the first time in almost 2 years. My knees have stopped randomly swelling and I have not needed pain shots I am now able to go back to doing crunches and situps after not being able to do them for years. I am back to kickboxing and doing some yoga as well as boxing and I feel like I I have gained years on my life Hinge Therapy was one of the best things that ever happened to me and I am more than certain you will feel the same way.

Great for beginners and reminder to STRETCH. I started a program with Hinge Health to improve pain in my body. I’m fairly active so I set the reminders to be 5 days a week. They sent me everything I needed to do a full workout and yoga set at home. I strategically set my daily routine to what is usually my lunch time. I really like that it will text me to remind me to do the program and that makes me do it. I coupled this program with another short daily program I do so when the first alarm goes off, I put my game face on. The sensors they send you are very sensitive and the charge lasts a LONG time. Easy to set up and use hardware and the app is intuitive too. I like that it links my progress to my Cigna for points on my wellness program through work. That means I get a discount on health insurance after a certain amount of time on the program. I’ve had two “ health coaches” reach out to me for feedback and possible adjustments in the routines I’m getting. They are quick to respond by text and very friendly. I would recommend EVERYONE do this. Perfect program for ALL AGES.

So far they're the worst. I can't begin to explain how much this app/company has underwhelmed me. I spent a long time detailing my medical information and background only to have several exercises added to my "custom" workout that would further injury an orthopedic injury had I actually listened to them when they promised to have a PT develop my plan. So I'm at a few weeks now still without an actual medical professional doing a customs workout and even though I've warned them multiple times that their "customs plan" violates my doctor, my orthopedic surgeon, and in person physical therapist's medical advice they continue to persist with my "care manager" sending me text reminders to do my daily activity. This is happening even after I've told her the injuries will make me worse and I'm pending surgery and need non-weight bearing activities that only stretch my body. (There's tons of free apps that can do this for you.) regardless she just keeps offering to send me articles to read about how some exercises can be uncomfortable. I'm pretty sure their case managers aren't doctors and her proffered "articles" and well maybe I can do an appointment with the PT (after my program was done) all go against my doctor's advice. So my point is this isn't truly custom but since I'm not paying for this as my employer is, Im not demanding my money back at this time.

Ok, but.... The exercises are helpful but the app could use some improvements: -It doesn’t have landscape mode functionality. I prefer using it on my iPad ( propped up on keyboard in landscape mode) or connecting my device to a TV. Needing to twist my neck to look at it sideways leaves me ( literally) with pain in the neck. -Because I’m far older (nearly 60) and less flexible than many users ( thanks to decades of back problems), I find the difficulty levels progressing far faster than this old body can handle. I’d like to be able to reset levels so I can progress at a pace that’s realistic for me, by redoing earlier levels, rather than a pace that works for a 20 or 30-something year old. Same was true pre-Covid when I was traveling a lot and not able to do exercises or connect to WiFi while in remote parts of the world. Sometimes it’s necessary to go back and redo a few levels or, after a long gap, even the beginning to rebuild strength. Being able to restart at Level X ( resetting everything after level X) would be useful. Having only one exercise at each level in the library is not enough. Although the new Change function is helpful, it doesn’t make much sense when I change it to a Level 1 exercise and it tells me I’ve completed a Level 12 exercise. PS-never did get sensors that worked properly even after 3 shipments where they twice sent “replacement “ sensors for the wrong program. I finally gave up on those. Not sure they’re really necessary though.

Life changing with small steps. Hinge health came into my life about a year ago. I began the program along with other activities including physical therapy. Then last June I moved and messed up my ankle in the process. I could not or would not do much and I moved back to square—well, not 1 but square 2 or 3 for sure. I decided to revisit HH. I cannot say enough about the good support this app provides, all of the professional assistance, and the coaching. Daily reminders keep me mindful that if I can do nothing else I can squeeze in 10 min a day. I’m not going to escape without surgery, I feel. But if I can put it off at least 3 years I’ll be so grateful. It’s been a little over a year and my ankle is almost well. I’m also on a medication that is supposed to help my mood and my joints. I think it is working. Bottom line, though, I’m doing so much better because of the constancy of Hinge Health. One of the greatest uses of technology ever!!

Encouragement is amazing!. I have Rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia. I have been VERY pleased with this app. The exercises are short and really have helped with my posture and shoulder pain. The coaches are soooo encouraging! They will text you to check in and see how you are doing. You can be completely honest with them and they will help and encourage you. I have yet to be able to do all 3 sessions in a week and they say that even if I can make a goal to do one of the exercises 3x a week that that would be a great start if that is all I can do. If you need extra help, they have physical therapists that will help to personalize your exercises even more if the given exercises are not working for you. I also started using their Enso (like a tens unit without cords attached) and it is amazing!! I control it with my phone and It connects with the hinge app. It is maybe 1in x 1in and attaches to the patch. I use it at work, home, while driving, etc. it has given me a lot of pain relief. Next I will work on my back so I can gain ab strength to help support my back.

Worth the 15min. This was program was offered by my Employer to help manage pain and improve movement. WOW! I’m completely impressed by this program. I was diagnosed with Spondyloarthritis last year. I’ve experienced low pain for 5+ years a to have a name helps. But even better is this program, with targeted exercises helps improve my flexibility and strength which decreases my pain level. It takes me about 15 minutes to complete the daily exercises. Hinge even sent out a kit to help me be sure I was moving correctly. The kit included: 2 body sensors, with charging cords & block, a phone holder and a yoga mat. All free! I was also assigned a Health Coach and a Physical Therapist that I can text for guidance or questions or set up a virtual appointment. I completely suggest this program for anyone experiencing pain or ROM issues. You can choose from a variety of body parts to work on. Good luck ☺️

Best Back Care App. My employer provided this app as a way to get healthy for those of us who suffer pain associated with a back injury. I fall in this category. Over one and a half years ago, I began the app. The stretching and position holds really helped alleviate back pain but also improved flexibility (think being able to sit on floor with legs stretched out in front of you). My back issue (previous tailbone dislocation and 2 herniated disks in lumbar region) improved tremendously. It worked better than the epidural blocks and chiropractor treatments in about 12 weeks of stretching a few minutes each week. I was able to return to regular exercise and have lost about 11 lbs. Now I am an infrequent user but every time I do the Hinge Health stretches I think why not do it more! A tool that gives achievable goals and helps improve flexibility and balance. You will not be disappointed if you keep at it.

From daily hip pain to occasionally. I was to the point of having severe nightly hip pain, burning pain! I would wake up several times a night due to that burning hip pain. My insurance offered to pay my full pt bill, so i figured if they were going to pay in full, there must be something to it. Signed up with Hinge and started immediately. The exercises were never difficult or painful, in fact I first thought they wouldn’t do any good because they were so easy. Working a week, I noticed a substantial decrease in pain, and was able to get through the night without the burning hip pain. My hip still ached, daily, but no where near the pain I was having. I went from an intolerable pain, to a manageable pain of which I would not go for surgery. After a few months of exercising every other day, I felt pretty good and slowed the days of exercising down to 2-3 a week, well before I knew it, I was getting that burning pain again. Started back on the other day routine, and within a couple of sessions, I was back on track and pain level was minimal. I can’t recommend Hinge Health more!

Actually amazing. This got added to my job’s benefit package so I have no idea how much it costs, but it’s literally perfect for me. I have diagnosed anxiety disorder/bi polar/adhd so public isn’t a real option for me in most cases and I’ve been wanting to add some form of stretching/yoga/tai chi to my life. I’m definitely stronger and more flexible and it absolutely helps when I’m overwhelmed/stressed out. Which is every day. So I use it every day. I was really surprised when the equipment showed up, everything is really good quality and I got a nice yoga mat included for free. I love being able to get a surprisingly good workout in without being stressed out about the people around me or what I look like doing it or anything. You get a real live coach which is really nice, if actually TOO communicative for me unfortunately. She was very nice though and really encouraging. And like, they don’t mind if you talk about things lol So yeah, I love it.

Great app, needs considerations for exceptions. I have been using this app for over a month. Everything was going well and I had less pain and better mobility. I hit a small snag in my training and could not progress in my daily workouts. My PT told me to skip the daily playlists and go back to lower levels for a few days while healing. Sadly, the app does not take this into account. If you don’t use the daily playlist, you get no credit for your activity streaks or achievements. I wish that there was something in place to credit your daily work, even if it is not the daily playlists. Otherwise, I love this app and this program. EDIT: I found a way to change the levels on your daily playlist shortly after writing this review. Now my only minor wish is that that slider for your pain level would be a bit more precise. Maybe put numbers on it? SECOND EDIT: After taking time off due to a setback, I wanted a way to restart the program at day 1. The app does not account for this. *PLEASE* fix this! I’ve had a few people at HH give me ‘workarounds’ that don’t really help, so adding this feature would be incredibly useful.

Hinge Health is Excellent. I have been using the Hinge Health app for several months. I have been dealing with back issues on and off for thirteen years. Hinge Health is one of the best tools I have found to address my issues. Each user can set their own goals for frequency of the exercise and flexibility “playlists.” Three sessions a week is a recommended minimum target but I am shooting for 7 a week. Making it a daily practice keeps my back and lower body flexible and capable for my daily tasks. I also enjoy the routine as a good start to my day. The audio and visually guided exercises are varied and increase in challenge and intensity over time. Wearable monitors that are Bluetooth linked to the app assist in tracking pace and range of motion. It’s like having a trainer in the room with you. I hear almost daily from a coach - that is clearly not a bot but an actual human in touch with my progress. Following each session’s routines there is a reflection or thought piece that encourages mindfulness, resilience and a deeper understanding of the mind/body relationship in pain and injury recovery. These are very helpful and I would think especially so for people who are just starting a journey of recovery.

Knee pain resolved. I’ve had chronic knee pain for 15 years now, but that’s all in the past. I try to recommend this to everyone I know. I’m not sure it’d address actual damage to your body (need surgery for that) but if the issue is improper loading on your joints then this is a perfect app/program. Physical therapy in your living room. No need to go anywhere. I love it. My knee pain was as a result of a job I did that put a lot of strain on the joint. I had imbalanced muscles which pulled on the knee “lop sidedly” and I’m pretty sure I stretched some ligaments because of it. Could barely walk up/down stairs because of it. Hurt all the time. Doctor told me I needed to exercise to get my muscles stronger and able to do the job my ligaments used to do. But it hurt and I didn’t know what I was doing. Enter hinge health. Sensors on my legs helped me maintain good posture, and the exercises slowly ramp as you progress. My knee doesn’t hurt anymore, I still do the exercises at a casual rate to maintain the joint, but the issue is totally resolved. I’m in love.

Hinge Health. Hinge Health was a god send when it was mentioned and offered to me. It helped me to work on my hip through physical therapy type exercises online, and I was even partnered with a coach. It helped me to get tone, balance, and functional use back into my daily life. Hinge Health focused and layered it’s exercises for my specific situation. I have made improvements and have even gained strength and stamina back enough to return to the gym, as well as to hiking and basic everyday productivity. The greatest benefit for me has been avoiding hip surgery, and I credit Hinge Health for that accomplishment. My only complaint is that it has run out of new exercises since I have started as it only has 40 lessons and now just repeats the last lesson for me. The other comment is that they did an upgrade that wasn’t an upgrade, but rather seems like a down grade because the achievement and recording part that charted accomplishments have never been upgraded or back online again, even though it keeps saying it will be done soon, it never yet has been back, and it has been months. It was a motivating component that now is lacking. Overall, Hinge Health has been a very helpful program to me and I am very thankful for Hinge Health, and my Hinge Health coach.

Best After PT help. I came across Hinge Health while still on my companies health plan. I’ve suffered back issues since my early 20’s and I’m now 65. I’ve been thru PT multiple times, have been doing their exercises almost religiously for years and quite frankly wasn’t getting any improvement. Finally got some X-rays a yr ago and found I have a significant curve to my back now and a significant slipped disc. Now I know why I hurt so bad! Anyway…I decided to try Hinge Health with their motivational coach, nearly 30 weeks ago, and I get better relief from doing their exercises, than I did with going and paying for PT!! I highly recommend corporations integrate this with their health plans as a benefit for their employees. It would be even better if Hinge Health was available to the public for a small fee. Doing my daily, ever changing exercises (mo boredom here) have made my life so much better. Thank you for making my life more tolerable.

My New Normal. I started Hindge Health in 2022. At that time my back wasn’t in great shape. I had had a physical therapist tell me I had significantly lost a lot of my range of motion. I couldn’t afford to go through physical therapy twice a week nor could I take the time off work. I started Hindge Health hoping for a miracle and boy did I get one. I’ve learned so much about dealing with pain. I have almost no pain now. I was off the program for a few weeks due ti work demands. I put my back health on the back burner. I could tell a big decline in my mobility, stiffness and balance and the pain was starting to creep back into my daily activities. I’m back on the program and I hope I never stop practicing what I’ve learn. My coach Hyla has always been there in a non pushy way and I’m so grateful for her. This program really works trust me. I’ve since fallen and broken a vertebrae. It was severe enough to require surgery and I’m completely mended now. I am trying to get back into my routine with my exercises and other daily habits. I’m confident I will succeed.

It is better than going to PT. I have gone to physical therapy and down hinge health. In my opinion, hinge health is much more personal and custom than attending a physical therapy clinic. For me, it is very stressful to drive, interact with strangers, do exercises in front of other strangers in a large PT area. I think plhusical therapists are the nicest people, but I have GAD, and I hate going to any appointments. They take up a lot of mental, emotional, and physical energy as well as money and time. I like doing my hinge health in my pajamas at home. I can talk to my coach any time, and my coach is very nice. Even though I get stressed out by talking on the phone, it was not bad at all, and then after that we were able to talk via text and email mainly, so it is much less stress for me. She also gave me alternative exercises when I was struggling with one of the exercises. Overall, I think it’s a wonderful program and when I stick to it, my pain is much decreased.

Movement = Life. Fantastic App for improving quality of life! I started Hinge Health for knee pain and continued healing following knee surgery. The opportunity to message with my HH coach and physical therapist is awesome. We can adjust the workout whenever and how it’s needed. It’s truly a personalized plan. The education component is definitely a plus! I’ve learned so much about pain management and the benefits of movement. My perspective has shifted for the better and I find myself appreciating my body more and more. I feel the purpose and commitment of the whole HH team is truly to improve the quality of life for those who make use of all it offers. I’ve felt and seen very really improvement and HH has earned my commitment. The workouts require a reasonable amount of time making it easy to work into my busy day and I notice when I don’t. I’m so grateful to have discovered Hinge Health!

Small steps become big changes. I started using Hinge Health after neck and back pain began to limit my range and reduce my enjoyment of activities. The program started so slowly I thought, “this can’t really be helping me.” I have it a few weeks and started to notice increased range of motion, less pain, and more strength. I kept it going for several months and notice substantial improvements. I switched to an ankle program on the app after an Achilles rupture and repair and am seeing improvement in my healing. I will continue to use the app as long as I have access. The digital coach is convenient and persistent and the goals are reasonable and attainable. The movement guidance is a cool addition to check posture and make corrections. It’s like an AI personal trainer. I just wish I could do more than one body area at a time, like back and lower body on an alternating schedule. Thanks.

Great App - still on it even after 1 year. I had a severe Lowe back problem and almost about to go for a surgery for “Herianated L4 disk”. Joined this program for back and it proved really helpful. In 15 weeks of 5-day routine, I was able to feel so much better with my back; I even able to lift 5 Gal water bottle from car trunk to garage. This Hinge program is absolutely great and guaranteed to relieve back pain if done without quitting in the middle. From week 2 itself it proved to relieve the pain. The article are so good and highly motivating. I am impressed so much with the program and its benefits that I am keeping it doing even after reaching maximum level 40. I crossed 40 week continuous stretch and committed to keep doing in order to keep my back strong. One feature would make this app much more useful - “Switching sides in the routine should be announce clearly in spoken language instead of a small beep”

Makes you stronger. I’m using this to strengthen my back. Point based workouts allow you to work your way up to gradually more challenging workouts. My invitation to use this app came with two Bluetooth sensors that measure your movement and can tell you when to start and stop each exercise, and if you are doing the exercises correctly. You also get useful information about your body and how your pain system works. And you get matched with an online coach to help you along. I wish there we a way to add workouts for other parts of your body. I recently injured my shoulder and went to PT. I’m not at 100% so it would be nice if this app could give rotator cuff exercises. It would also be nice if you could reset yourself to a lower level If you suffer a setback/injury that prevents you from picking up where you left off. I was up at level 14 and then crashed on my bicycle and had to take 10 weeks off for my ribs and shoulder to partially heal. I took myself back to level 7 but I’m still accruing points, and the app just moved me to level 16 - there’s no way I could do the level 16 exercises. Just a few minor tweaks would make this an excellent app for providing exercise guidance. I really like that it remembers all the exercises - you just do what it tells you.

Helps loosen me up each morning. Hinge Health eases you into exercises in a gentle manner, but even the shortest exercise playlists help loosen the joints and muscles for the day when done in the morning. I love the communication with my health coach and the accessibility of my Physical Therapist. When I start to get stiff or feel pain throughout the day and can’t get away from my desk, I’ll do just a couple of the seated exercises and feel some relief until I’m able to get up and go for a walk. Many of the articles are helpful, too. In the beginning, I felt like they were just a ploy by the insurance companies to convince a person to avoid surgery, but now I feel like they were there to encourage me to keep going and not give up. They’ve also gotten much more concrete in the advice given, so I no longer groan when they pop up and instead, I actually seek out information that relates to my situation. You have to be committed to getting better so that you complete your playlists on a regular basis (at least 3 times per week, I’d say), but if you can add it to your morning or bedtime routine, it really will help reduce your pain.

Great but wish it would continue. The Hinge neck program has been great. I first thought that the easiness of the exercises was because they don’t know the degree of your injury or chronic pain, but it’s really just to get you moving and progressing. The exercises never really got too much harder but they certainly worked the supporting muscle groups so my neck and back feel stronger and my chronic pain is greatly reduced. The program has 40 levels and you can get through a level in a few days. I wish the levels advanced beyond 40 but my coach said you just need to go back and repeat some. This is less motivating than trying to complete a level. I suggest they offer a way to generate Levels 40+ that would mix and match exercises from levels 30-40 and then you just keep going as long as you want to. Otherwise, this has been a great program and I thank my employer for making this available for free.

Just another piece of paper in the mail. When I found out about hinge health, it was because I received a flyer in the mail. Almost threw it out until I decided to read it because it said free on it with my insurance company. I’m glad that I did read because I have been set up with a wonderful program that’s going to assist me with becoming stronger and hopefully having less pain and not having to have surgery, I love working with the staff to set up my exercise program to make me stronger. The feedback from the staff is always great. The articles that they give me to read are empowering. I am just glad that I did not throw that paper away. I called and salt help for knee pain, and as I have come to learn, wear and tear and deterioration of our knees is normal, whether we experience an accident or not with knees, we don’t have to be limited in our motions. We can become stronger and learn to live and move with less pain but it doesn’t have to be intense pain if we strengthen our muscles. I feel blessed to have a coach and work with a physical therapist to get into better knees. Awesome Program!

Great Results. Hinge Health has helped me reduce pain and regain function after a movement-related injury didn’t resolve on its own. The app has been an essential tool during that time and ongoing enhancements have proven useful. I had been been told by my physicians to expect joint replacement of a hip and knee within a year due to previously unrecognized osteoarthritis, but that anniversary is almost here and it doesn’t appear that will be happening anytime soon. The ongoing encouragement and practical advice from my HH coach has been highly beneficial and been supported by a designated physical therapist when needed. If a specific exercise was inaccessible to me with typical modifications, they were there with good suggestions that helped me eventually accomplish it. I have resumed many activities that had been curtailed, including some that had slipped away without me recognizing it. Being able to work in HH’s structured PT program for a sustained period vs. a short term more typical program has been key.

Love it. I had a back injury due to work for a year in a half. I have been just ok with pain and taking pain medication to get through the day when I return to work. My husband told me about Hinge which he was recommended by his job. He had done Hinge for a 6-12 month which help his neck and shoulder discomfort. When saw that it worked he signed me up through his job. I was skeptical and not sure what to do but the discomfort was unbearable so I a gave it try. It’s been 6 weeks and I am moving easier, sitting, standing and bending easier. Now….I do have tenderness but the article are very helpful after each session explaining about movement with pain and how to move to help with discomfort. I would recommend this to anyone with chronic pain because it works. Down side are the sensors. I use them during the sessions to targets the right moves to make. The difficulty in use is the connection and positioning. It makes your movement looks like you are not doing well…. even though if you are. It makes it seem as though you are moving well. The PT team are great I communicate my needs and they make adjustments to help the discomfort. The Hinge is great! Give it try what can you loss…do it because pain free.

Hinge app is phenomenal. I have been using Hinge in order to bring down the amount of back pain that I have. I think that it really has helped immensely and the person to person support that I receive is exemplary. Most people think that if you use an app that there is a chance that you won't have a "real" person to support you, but Hinge makes sure that there is always somebody there to make sure that we are feeling okay doing the current exercises and to be sure that we are getting everything that we need from the exercises that we have set for us. I also enjoy the articles that we have in our app. They can be very beneficial if we read them and take what we feel that we need from them. If you are looking for an app to help your body reduce the pain, try Hinge Health FOR SURE!! You've got nothing to lose but your pain!! Good luck and God bless!!!

Fabulous Program. Wrote the review below probably about a year ago and Hinge still has me going strong. Recently had a stroke (I am now a former smoker!) and Hinge has been so helpful in my recovery. I appreciate the fact that I can adjust my daily level of difficulty, depending on my capability that day. Have been all the way back down to level 1, but that is right where I needed to go. And my coaches are always there, every step of the way, cheering me on. This program has had a powerful impact on my life. I was a hot mess with my right hip, until I started this Hinge program. Boeing provided the service, Hinge provided a tablet, sensors, and straps. All I had to do was charge the sensors, logon to the tablet, select the Hinge app, and I was off and running (so to speak). This program has been incredibly helpful. When I started (a couple of years ago) I was hinging almost daily, but I am now hinging on an as needed basis. This has been a terrific program for me.

Leaps and bounds. I had been thinking about doing some kind of regular exercise for a while to help my back and ankle pain that are the result of mild scoliosis and psoriatic arthritis. After an intense bout of back pain I knew I had to do something or give up. I had received flyers in Hinge Health but never followed up - I didn’t know what it was. Well, it is a mild, app-driven exercise program targeted to GRADUALLY get your joints stronger. The exercises start slowly and easily and appeared to be tailored to your age and ability. I have been doing the exercises each week - at least three days a week (I usually do more) for a month and although I still have some very mild pain the difference between before and now is incredible. I wish I would have started sooner. I highly recommend Hinge Health. It had helped me so much! The articles are mostly interesting and the staff that you can send messages to respond well.

J Morgan. After cervical spine surgery, my therapy was due to start on March 12th 2020. Going to physical therapy wasn’t an option thanks to COVID-19, and I believe it really impacted my recovery. Hinge Health not only helped me as an alternative to PT, it was the reason I committed to exercising with regularity. It has provided me with the tools to help my neck and I rely on the stretches/exercises throughout the day even when I don’t use the app. But again - it was the catalyst that put me on the path to staying active, and for that I am beyond grateful. I’m more fit than I’ve been in the last 30 years, and I’m 50. Also - Coach Megan has been great not only with being so accessible with any questions I had regarding my neck regimen but also with providing me with routines to help with hip, lower back, core strength and others that I use on almost a daily basis. HH has improved my quality of life and has changed my lifestyle - thank you!

HINGE program /app. I have been suffering from chronic hip pain for a few months. My husband’s employer offered the Hinge program through the HINGE app. I reluctantly signed up for it. Nothing else I had tried seemed to be working. After using Hinge for it a couple of weeks. I did start noticing a little bit of a difference. Not quite there yet, but with the coach that they provide me to check in with periodically, some persistence & consistency doing the physical Therapy work outs provided. I am very optimistic. 😁 my optimism has served me well. I am really getting a lot out of this program. I can absolutely see the results.. It is definitely a program that requires consistency. But with a positive mindset and a good attitude, it has been a game changer. My remarks continue to hold fast. This program is wonderful and consistency is definitely required. I’m very glad I signed up for the HINGE program. I would like to add that my Coach Larissa is amazing!😊

Review from a 57 year old lady.. This program has giving me aValuable tool that I use daily to help me first of all get strong and second part stays dry. The more I put in to my exercises the more I get out of them. For example, gardening that used to be very hard for me because of my lower back pain, it still hurts just not as much and not as soon. I’m able to stay longer in the garden Garden I’m not as afraid of pain as much as I was before now I believe there’s things I can do to control the rate of pain. in my circumstance, I will be living with pain forever. However, I think I have a lot of influence on how much pain I will have. My coach has been a vital part of this, she seems to have figured out what I need physically and mindfully, and it’s been a positive influence through my whole journey. Never too pushy never disappoint it just gentle encouragement and understanding when I have fallen short my own set goals my coach is always there to answer questions.

Loving Care. Hinge Health is an excellent resource available to take care of yourself and make a difference in your health and longevity. My doctor was talking surgery. To me, surgery is a last resort. Insurance provided the opportunity to participate in Hinge Health physical therapy as a starting alternative. Knowing that physical therapy can make a huge difference I signed up. Hinge Health provided an excellent solution and I can participate fully right here at home. HH provided targeted physical therapy in an easy to follow format that allows me work at my own pace while strengthening and rebuilding weak areas. With HH, I have eliminated 95% of the pain associated with my condition and am becoming stronger daily, thus nullifying some of the underlying factors that contributed to my initial problem. Building up your strength slowly, with the help of your coach and the exercises customized to your needs can make all the difference long term. HH provides everything you need including your own online coach to cheer you on and monitor your progress. I have been using this program, sometimes not as much as I should, and recently realized that I have achieved some core strengths and abilities that I have never been able to do, even when I was younger and in top shape. Challenge yourself and give yourself the gift of targeted, loving care. The work you put in is worth every minute. The pay off is a stronger you. Maybe even stronger than ever!

Has no idea help was possible!. My neck was hard to use. Hard to lift my head from a looking downward position and had to help lift it up with my hand. In much constant debilitating pain, I took medicine regularly for relief and to function. It was hard to look side to side, look overhead, sit, and stand. After about ten weeks on the program my skepticism ended when I was able to more freely lift my head and then within a few more weeks I was amazingly functioning with better movement, strength, and confidence. I have been on the program now for at least eighteen months and hardly ever need medication. My pain stays manageable when I stay consistent with completing my playlists. This is the perfect program for the busy person, and it delivers true and lasting results. The quality of my life has improved greatly with my Hinge Health experience. I’m grateful beyond measure!

Hinge Health Success. I have come. Long way in this program. I can remember all of my frustration, negative attitude, high emotions, depression and disbelief. I was certain I was not going to get better and that I would have to make a decision about having surgery. But despite all my pushback and lack of interest due to the pain I was feeling daily, I starting to see it all pay off. This program has kept me focused, even when I wanted to give up, I always came back, opened my toolbox and started the exercises again. Each time I was getting a little better, despite feeling that nagging pain. I am now at a point to where I can call that pain discomfort. The exercise program has helped me to recondition my body, muscles and joints while decreasing the amount of pain I felt. It took some time to get used to the exercises, and staying the course with them. Now. I’m just so glad that I did. The coaches and therapists assisted me and designed my program according to my complaints. It is working tremendously. I’m glad to have made it this far. I tell my coworkers about HingeHealth for their pain and discomfort. It works!

Highly recommend. I started PT via Hinge Health after finishing my in person PT. I was not feeling 100%, constantly in pain but intensity was very low. I was skeptical in the beginning but video instruction are very helpful. Sensors are helpful but you can decide not to use them. After 6 weeks of stretching, my pain was nonexistent. I liked the program because of the personal coach. They will check your progress, keep in touch and send you encouragement. Coach also advised and adjusted/added different stretches depending on my input. After finishing my first session, I have started another session with them. I had video conferences with the Physical therapist and decided to start a new regiment to help me strengthen myself. I am celebrating my five month anniversary with them. Anyone who is on fence about online PT should give it a try, 15-20 minutes a day, words of encouragement , It’s worth it

Your private physiotherapy at home. The app is really well made. It has a detailed explanation of individual exercise and has cues of how long you have to carry a particular step. It helps with your choice of stress levels so it works with you to give the exact level of exercise that you need. You can also comment on how you are doing and individual mentors assigned to you will help you answer your questions and help you through your training. I would have never gone to a physiotherapist for consultation as it would take half of your day to get there and work with them. This app has made it possible to get the consultation at home and you can do it at your own convenience. Only issue I have found in the app is sometimes the sounds do not work for random sessions and then you have to look at the phone screen to see how long you are supposed to hold a position. Thanks again for all your help and support!

Love this program!. This opportunity came very unexpectedly in the mail so I decided to check into it not sure what to expect thinking I had nothing to lose. I’ve had chronic daily headaches and neck stiffness for more years than I can count so it has just become part of me, but I am just so tired of never getting relief. I can honestly say the program and the incredible support (shout out to the coaches) I am receiving has made this a welcome part of my life every day. I have only missed a couple of sessions for the past month or longer and look forward to this. I do wholeheartedly believe I am making progress and the effort isn’t too much honestly. I would say give it a try! Also the articles I read after each “session” are empowering and give me the opportunity to think about changing how I feel about pain. I am thankful for this gift!

Having a partner along the way!. The Hinge Health app and program are a wonderful way to just spend a few minutes a few times a week to work on those nagging pains. I have spent the last nine months methodically moving through the guided program with the help of the Hinge Health coaches and therapists. The coaches are there in the background monitoring your weekly activities and providing encouragement. They are always available for consultation if needed. They help with adjusting your program and making sure you are able to stay on track. The app is a constant companion in delivering the guided program. The app also provides a weekly wellness articles to help answer common pain questions and to dismiss many myths around exercise. Best of all, when you have completed the program, you continue to have access to all the exercises in the program and the articles.

Hinge Health is Holistic Healing That Works!. I fell on my knee years ago and wasn’t able to put any pressure on it at all…none. I found out about it and decided to give it a try. A little over 6 months in, I‘m able to put pressure on it! I’m not completely back to 100% yet, but I’m not completely done with my training either. I get a virtual health coach that reaches out and checks in with me. If I’m struggling with an exercise they help me with modifications until I can find one that will work for ME. I can do the lessons when I want to, wherever I want to. They send a travel kit with sensors to record your range of motion and provide feedback, as well as resistance bands, and a yoga mat. The education provided after each exercise is enlightening, reassuring, and inspiring. The virtual support group is WONDERFUL, and there is even a virtual physical therapist available that I can schedule an appointment with if needed. This program works, and it’s sustainable. I’m stronger and have muscle definition now, that I never have before. I sleep better at night and have more confidence to do things that I haven’t been able to do in years. Thank you Hinge Health!

Great app. This app is amazing! While it’s me at to help folks with severe back pain and issues I was not in that category. My issue was general tightness and discomfort in my back which I could not stretch away. The app with the guided workouts that progress as you do the work has been great for me. My back feels much better and I have been introduced to some new things like balance exercises. That’s something I never did before and frankly i struggled the first time it asked me to do a wood pecker but little by little I have improved on those meaning my balance and posture are better. There is a coach assigned to you for motivation and questions. This can be great for people that need it. The work is usually under 15 minutes so very easy to work into your schedule There are also great articles on everything well being like meditation. Lastly the app itself works great on all my devices so no issues there.

My back pain is all but gone. I had dealt with lower back pain for years. I herniated a disc and have degenerative disc in my L5. I sit at a computer for my job. While I would get up and walk around a bit to help the pain was always there. I just figured this is just how it is going to be. I received an email offering the hinge program. I thought why not. I love that not only did it give you suggested exercises and stretches, you also check in by logging your pain, and then there are short articles about managing your pain and other helpful things. The best part has got to be a couple months into the program I realized that I had gone several days without even noticing the pain. I had increased my core strength and supporting muscles as I diligently completed my exercises 3 times a week. (That was my goal) I can honestly say that hinge has changed my life. I recommend it to all of my coworkers and have told my doctors about it! Hinge is amazing.

Tiny steady improvement. I had knee pain every day, which lead to ankle pain and then hip and back pain as I compensated for the troublesome knee. My insurance sent an email and then a brochure about Hinge, so I applied. A few weeks later my insurance was approved and I committed to spending 3 days and 10 minutes a day to improving my knee. I did the program every day for months and slowly and steadily I had more confidence in my knee’s ability to carry me through the day. First there was less pain and now with pain so infrequent that it isn’t worth mentioning. My coach is very helpful. Exercises I struggled with were replaced and reintroduced slowly. The program changes exercises after a certain amount of points earned so you don’t get tired of one routine. The sensors and video representation of the exercises keep you on track for proper form. I have run with my dogs and walked up hill and played golf and badminton. Theses are things I thought were in my past when I started on steroid shots in my back. The program has all my confidence.

Impressive, motivation & modification. I have always known I needed to do daily PT exercises on my own to help my pain and balance but, I was never motivated to do them, never could remember what to do and afraid I would do them wrong causing more pain. This app has motivated me to daily stretches every morning with a reminder text, planned program and with the sensors, I am more confident that I am doing them correctly. Plus I know there are therapists monitoring me. They send me feedback and communicate with me weekly via texts and emails. I also sent them feedback when the side bends were causing me pain flareups and they were able to substitute that exercise with another that does not cause pain. I also enjoy reading the various topics on healthy habits and retraining my brain. There are also many member chat groups that I have joined for advice from other members on a variety of topics like diet and recipe ideas. I am very impressed with this program and thank my insurance company for introducing me to Hinge. And I thank Hinge for making this an easy motivator to keep me moving. Use it or lose it!

Life-changing. After 3 reconstructive knee surgeries, I eventually became bone-on-bone with severe arthritis. My orthopedic surgeon told me I couldn’t do any weight bearing activities, weightlifting or even swimming. His advice for treatment was to wait till the pain got so bad I could not stand it and then he’d do a knee replacement. I was 38. Within a few months of starting Hinge, I had increased flexibility, was doing weight bearing exercises without pain and my daily pain was noticeably less. After 6 months, there was drastic improvement in mobility, strength and pain reduction. I have tried many different PT programs and exercises but there is something about the way this program is designed that led to different results. Even after falling off and not maintaining my therapy rhythm for a period, my pain never returned to what it was and I maintained much of my flexibility. But I’m back on the wagon again bc it literally has changed my life. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Excellent Hinge Health Exercise Program. I am a 63-year-old male. Former national champion, weightlifter and power lifter. I am also a law-enforcement officer. I have had numerous surgeries, knee issues, spine issues, but it has never stopped me from getting into the gym. In the past couple of years, my knee issues have degraded my ability to do some of the things that I love to do. Hinge Health came along as a result of my spouses healthcare program, and I decided to embrace it just to see what could happen. I can say honestly that I believe the various programs the Hinge Health professionals have designed for me have been very beneficial and I believe are a serious component to the fact that my pain level has gone from a constant seven or eight to an occasional two. I admire the fact that they have actual live human beings at the end of the phone line, and are exceptionally responsive about designing & offering alternatives to some of the program movements. I highly recommend this program.

Still going strong….. It’s amazing with Hinge Health I can’t believe just how great I feel after stretching. Prior to this I would jump out of bed and start doing manual labor and constantly in pain. Now that I find the time to spend 15 minutes a day before lifting heavy equipment I find I have so much more energy. I remember when I was going to a physical therapist I always feel younger because I always had more range of motion. With Hinge Health I am taking control and I am doing my exercises at least three days per week. Thanks to the amazing staff that follows my progress and chimes in every time I have a question. I have created a motto for them. Good better best never let it rest until the good is better and the better is best. On a sidenote as a result of not feeling the pain and doing more exercises I was able to loss 25 pounds since I started with hinge I want to give them credit for that as well.

Pain free in a few months. When I started the Hinge Health program I would have major knee pain after bike riding and significant pain almost every day. It was difficult going down steps and the pain would keep me awake at night. After a few weeks of following the program the pain would come and go. When it was there it was less sever. Eventually the pain at night went away. Pain showed up in new places and my coach recommended exercises to address that. After a few months l became pain free. I enjoyed a week of skiing in Lake Tahoe and had no pain at all. Going up and down steps gives me no pain at all. I mountain bike with greater intensity than ever and have no pain after. Without a doubt this program works. Exercise is the answer. My coach has helped keep me motivated and I am grateful for my coach, Diane and for the Hinge Health program.

It helped a lot with my ligament teared knee pain. It was a great way to get my leg and knee to be functional normally after my long lasted pain due to ligament tear in my past. Overall i was feeling i am not doing anything other than walking with my leg which had ligament tear and i often feel my legs look like chicken legs but now after continues exercises using hinge my legs are moulded and getting to perfect healthy condition. I can’t wait to continue further on this and i never had to do any heavy leg workouts to have my legs look healthy and in good shape. It was a bit of wait and motivation required and took about 4-6 weeks continues efforts to get to an understanding that it is working for me. So don’t loose your hopes until you do it at-least 4-5 days a week and 6 weeks then analyse your hinge program what it did for that whole time.

Skeptical at first, but not anymore. At first, I just signed up because my health insurance offered it for free and they sent me a yoga mat bands, and a stand for my phone which made things so much easier. The exercises seemed really easy at first and by the second third and fourth week, they gradually got a little bit harder, but not undoable, I am starting to see results just in what I can do outside in the garden with bending over and squatting down. Give it a try it’s really easy and only takes about 15 minutes every morning. You can also speak directly with a physical therapist, which makes it great when you have an exercise that you think might be too much for you, and there are modifications that you can do to make it a little bit easier. The videos to show you how to do The exercises are fantastic.

Best therapy for a healthier back!. I was having chronic pain in my lower back, and was limiting myself from enjoying doing many things for a while. The chiropractor couldn’t help me enough, and doctors were mentioning medication. I decided to respond to the Hinge Health postcard I received in the mail, and since then, it’s a complete metamorphosis! I find myself doing my exercises regularly, and enjoying the challenge. I am in touch with the team who monitors the progression. I provide feedback on some of the movements that are challenging, and get a modified routine that fits what I need to work on. I would recommend it to anyone who really wants to see great improvements in their body, mind, and attitude about where their body can take them!

HingeHEALTH App. I am all about alternative healing approaches for my chronic osteoarthritis (both knees, shoulders, elbows, etc). I want to avoid the Total Joint Replacement(s) surgeries that western medical professionals promptly recommend once the term Chronic Pain is mentioned. Hinge Health’s app for knee pain has been in my toolbox since the start of Covid lockdown. As a result I have been able to improve not only my joint health - but also maintain improved mental health. The 1:1 coaching and ability to spend time with DPM’s and DPT’s (within the app’s videoconferencing feature) to gain their expert medical opinions is beyond compare. After decades of uncertainty about accepting TKR surgery as the only outcome, I finally feel peace around “my teams” agreement with what WE determine as the next move. p.s., I’d love to work for HingeHEALTH!!!

A life saver. I have been using Hinge Health since the summer of 2020. I used it to help me with my neck pain and frequent loss of feeling in my fingers. I was consistently using the program (3-4x/week) for the first 40 levels and then was able to taper down to 1-3x a week depending on my discomfort level. I would highly recommend to anyone that has pain. Going to physical therapy helped for a bit but it was not an end all because the pain would come back. Being able to do it at home (even work) is wonderful and the articles that come every once in awhile are short and sweet and help in how our brain and body deal with pain and other helpful articles. Thank you Hinge Health

fine if you believe anecdotal data and can be brainwashed. The exercises are okay- sometimes the sensors are not correct and can’t tell that I am standing up. One exercise had incorrect directions. But my real problem is with the “Education” portion of the program. The articles are based on anecdotal data and are designed to brainwash you into thinking that your pain is just in your head and not important enough for you to miss work. So by gaslighting you into thinking your arthritis isn’t real, you can stay at work and damage your body further. I already had one joint replacement at a young age, and because I didn’t know what was happening, my posture and range of motion deteriorated because I didn’t seek help right away. This app would have told me I was imagining things and I didn’t need to get a replacement, I just needed to read these articles and move a little each day. *My* anecdotal data says otherwise. Too bad Hinge Health is just interested in keeping you at work rather than really educating you about what is happening with your body and what each exercise can do to help. I know what happened to me and trying to rewrite history is ridiculous. Maybe they should have considered that some of us understand cognitive behavior therapy and might recognize the tricks they were trying to pull. In fact, if they had more training in it, their app might be more successful.

Getting better!. My neighbor and I talked in January about our New Years resolutions. We both experience daily neck or back pain. Listing mine I started to say I wanted to be free of pain. I had to “do something.” He told me he had just started Hinge and how he was improving his range of motion and getting a lot out of it. He said Hinge inspires him to do a bit more stretching after doing the short exercises from the program. Every time I see him now I thank him. Pain was the first thing I thought about every day. Neck pain was making every day tasks harder to do. The simple exercises help ease the pain and get things moving. When I am hurting, my tendency was to lay down with a heating pad and ibuprofen! Hinge exercises and the self care article following it, really have made a difference. The coach check in makes me accountable.

Three weeks in, it’s a great program. You know the problem with exercise regimens, you need to be motivated to actually do it. Hinge Health makes it easy to get started with easy exercises that only take a few minutes a day, then gradually increasing time and complexity. You are paired with a coach who communicates via text, so it’s almost like having a personal accountability buddy. The coach also helps adjust exercises that might be too difficult. The sensors are optional but help you to know that you are doing the exercises correctly and it points out any imbalances in your body (I can stretch further to my right side than my left). Overall I think it’s a great program, though admittedly after 3 weeks I cannot say it has changed my life. But I have high hopes!

Aging body. I joined the Hinge Health program because I have so many aches and pains now that I past 50. The program is free and is just an amazing program. It starts out extremely manageable if you are willing. The exercises are given to you for what you specifically want to work on and is also adaptable. When my knees started feeling better and I could then feel how much my shoulders were really bothering me, I just sent them a message asking to add in shoulder pain exercises. You don’t have to wait days for an answer either. They are very punctual in their responses. Usually within 10 minutes. It really comes in handy especially if you have questions. They also send you resistance bands, led sensors, and a yoga mat to get you started. AMAZING program to keep your body moving!!! Thank you Hinge!!

One of my new favorite benefits through work. I learned that my company began offering Hinge Health this past year as I was awaiting hip surgery. After surgery, my doctor had prescribed only 4 weeks of optional in-person PT. My insurance was billed over $600/session! I decided to do Hinge Along side the prescribed PT and found the recommended exercises very similar. I decided to continue on with Hinge after the 4 weeks was up. I’m six months post-op now and feel the Hinge app helped me stay motivated and consistent in my exercises. I’m pretty well back to normal now and feel the Hinge program has contributed to that progress! Short playlists, ability to customize, biofeedback with sensors, and reminders, all make it very effective. Highly recommend!

Works well for me. I’ve been fortunate to experience the positive results of this program. I tried a number of therapies short of surgery for a neck/shoulder injury I suffered 5 years ago. The playlist approach is engaging and have found the results to be great. My pain was at a level that impacted my sleep and sitting at a computer unbearable at times. Hinge Health playlists have strengthened my neck/shoulder muscles and increased flexibility overall. Over time, my pain level has decreased to a point where most days I am now pain free. I did not expect HH would have this level of impact but I am grateful it did. The supporting library of daily articles, written by the HH team help keep things on track for me and to take more time for self care.

Little stretch routine means a lot. From the very first day I started the hinge stretch routine I could feel a different in my body, I was stretching! Something I barely do although I workout most day of the week for the past 8 years. I didn’t realize I wasn’t stretching enough and the impact it has in my hole body. It feels so good! I have to say that when my back doesn’t like the exercise and I feel uncomfortable, I get discouraged but as one of the doctor from hinge thought me; It is normal to feel discomfort. The communication between the trainer and doctors is pretty neat. They are always on top of you if they notice you haven’t use the app in days. I am so grateful I have the chance to use this hinge program. Thank you so much to everyone that is involved in such a great idea.

SI joint, back and hip pain. I started the hinge program approximately 3+ months ago. It was painful to walk and move. I felt like I was 100 years old. In the beginning, my progress seem to me to be slow, but I stuck to it and persevered because I knew it was going to take some time. Little by little things started improving. The articles really helped because they made me aware of what my body was going through. It made me pay attention to my movements and how my body was reacting to those movements. The constant monitoring, encouragement and feedback from the therapist is phenomenal. Now I am virtually pain-free and getting stronger day by day. I love this program and would recommend it to anybody who is living in constant pain and wants to heal their body without meds or surgery.

So helpful!. If you want to get right to your workout without a trip to the gym, you can do these exercises at home. ( in 11-15 min. time frames). You choose the days of the week you want to commit to, working within your schedule. Great instructions within the workouts, plus additional explanation of the exercise within the lineup of exercises; exercises are tailored to the part of the body you are focused on elevating pain from. They send you the light equipment needed (sensors and exercise bands.) They start small and build over time as your strength builds. The Online coach is responsive and helpful answering questions, giving encouragement, and suggesting additional resources if you need them. I’ve found help with a shoulder issue and my knees so far.

Great substitute. The hinge app has helped my back pain so much. The flexibility this program provides is superb. No more expensive trips to the therapist. I have one in my pocket all day. At home, at work, or on vacation my sessions are there when I need them. On top of that the program has articles for you to read after every session or if your just scrolling through the app. Each article educational to making better health habits, explains what pain you might be feeling, what the exercises do, and options you can expect healthcare professionals might recommend. I also get a coach and a PT doctor that help me along as well and keep me going on. I’d recommend this program to anyone who is in pain looking for a solution that doesn’t involve surgery, or at least trying to do everything before that option is necessary.

Hinge Health Physical Therapy Program. I have been participating in this program for almost a year now. I have seen and felt my progress since starting this program. I have been working on range of motion and rebuilding muscle after having both knees replaced. This program has been a great opportunity to continue PT at home on my time, and most importantly with active support from physical therapist. The PT’s regularly check in with me especially if I have noted a problem I was or am having. I definitely recommend Hinge Health Physical Therapy Program to anyone who needs physical therapy. I have improved ROM, I can walk three miles without pain in my knees due to doing this program. The exercises play list are gentle and short to complete. I am very thankful that my spouses employer offers this free service to us.

Successful method for getting stronger & healthier. Hinge Health is like having an exercise coach and physical therapist with you every day. The app provides exercise instructions, how to make the exercise, harder or easier, and actually follows you through your exercises. Having the app keeps me motivated and encouraged. Via email, they follow my progress daily-weekly, give me advice and a friendly reminder if I have an exercise for a few days., and answer questions. They send specific exercises to treat weaknesses or injuries and offer exercise and stretching plans for whatever personal goals you have. They provide brief, information packed articles to support. I have finally stayed with an exercise program!

Strength training to relieve pain. Hinge Health has been a blessing for me. I went through a rough time last year where I could barely walk. I had a pinch nerve that consumed my lower back, hip and left leg. I went to the ER several times, had an MRI, X-rays, epidural and other injections. It took me months to get back to normal. I’m not fond of taking pain meds so I really had a rough time through it all. Hinge Health listened to me and gave me exercises to do to help me. They started me with minimal exercises and progressively added to them. I have been doing the exercises about 3 times a week for about 6 months. The exercises have helped greatly. I am a huge believer of being fit and exercising. I am fortunate to have this available to me. Thanks to Hinge Health and especially to my coaches.

Inflexible schedule. Annoying articles. The exercises might be useful but the purpose of an app is to motivate you to do them. There is only one possible time to schedule your exercises. My days don’t line up the same each day so all the app serves to do on most days is annoy me with the announcement that it’s time for my exercises. Which I don’t have time for five days out of seven. There is no actual feedback on progress at all, something else most apps I’ve used to try to change something, have done. No tracking, no evidence that these exercises are helping, and no indication the exercises are at all tailored for you. The short articles that you are suppose to read are pretty banal and mostly waste time. A small percent are actual useful. The language used talks down to the reader. I’m sorry I signed up for this at work and now my employer has a year long contract to fulfill apparently. I’ve been offered much better health apps via work before. And used and paid for better ones in my own.

Life-changing. I started Hinge Health in February 2021 as a last resort. I am missing three pieces of cartridge on my knee and was on a daily prescription medicine for pain. I also had a synthetic joint fluid injection to try and help. The orthopedist said I’d be a candidate for knee replacement in 10-15 years (I’m 46). When I saw Hinge Health offered as a new benefit with my husband’s employer I figured I didn’t have anything to lose. With the simplicity of the daily exercises I didn’t expect to see any change - they were just too easy in my opinion. I was wrong. Within a week I no longer had pain walking. Within a month I could go up and down stairs pain-free. Within two months I was snorkeling and hiking for hours a day. It’s been nothing short of miraculous. I haven’t missed a day of exercises since I started and intend to do this for the rest of my life. I can’t say enough about this program. I’ve told all my friends about it. The coaching (Brittni Troyan has been amazing!) and the education have given me a better understanding of how much I’m actually in control of my pain management. Thank you for this program. It’s given me back my mobility.

I love Hinge Health. Having this app has made it easier to get into a routine of doing the exercises that are keeping me form a knee replacement . Everything is at my fingertips and can be done at times that fit into my schedule. My coach and therapist have been extremely responsive to my needs. If I mention that my balance isn’t great, new balance exercises are in my program within 48 hours! . I love that not only are there video instructions for each exercise , there are also video modifications that I can use until I get stronger . So I am always improving and getting stronger at my pace. I had some phone issues and was unable to access my program for several weeks. Tech support was on it —— turned out it was not an issue on their end, but with my phone . I noticed a difference in pain and strength without my program. It reinforced the importance of the program and how far I can progressed. The best part is that within days of getting back to regular exercises with the app, I was back to where I had left off. I think this app is amazing and I am so happy I have access to it !

I love Hinge Health. I am a walking advertisement for Hinge Health. I have been doing the program for three months and I tell everyone who has back problems that at 60 I feel 10 years younger. I can do a lot of things that I had stopped doing such as lifting, squatting down to investigate plants and insects, and biking. My mental health is better than ever, and the fear that I had of injuring myself has subsided. My coach, Holly is phenomenal and checks in, provides encouragement, and recently recommended a meditation app, which has also helped a lot. A few years ago I just assumed that down the road I would eventually have to have back surgery as I have a family history of back problems. I intend to continue the program and hopefully will never have to have surgery. Thank you! This program is great!

Hinge health is amazing. I’ve been doing this program for over 3 years. I am so happy I tried it, and stuck with it. It has been a very successful program for me. My goal was to get stronger and maintain good back health because I have had chronic back pain due to my job that requires sitting or standing in place for 8-10hrs a day. This exercise program without a doubt is why I feel so good and have little to no more back pain. It fits perfect in my lifestyle, no excuses why I can’t do it anymore. Thanks for great assistance when I needed to modify exercises because of unrelated injuries. I have recommended and will to anyone with back pain. Do it, it worth it! Thank you for making this available to me. It’s a life saver. We are enjoy life’s great adventures because I have been taking care of my back. 😍

An excellent program. I have been doing the Hinge Health exercises for 8 months now, I and I have experienced quite definite improvements in my flexibility, along with substantial relief from back pain issues. Also, there are benefits of a greater sense of well being. I find the exercises enjoyable and not too strenuous, yet with enough of a challenge that they build strength. It’s a good balance that helps with consistency, such that I don’t find myself avoiding them. The sessions are relatively short but effective, especially done regularly. I have been able to consistently do 5 sessions a week, sometimes more, since I find them easy to fit into my schedule. I highly recommend the program!

Great Way to Work on Problem Areas. I have been having trouble with my knees more and more as I age. I found I could barely squat and cannot do it fully yet, due to sore, stiff knees. Once I committed to doing the Hinge exercises specifically targeting my knees, I find I can climb stairs with my arms loaded much easier. And those squats? Well I keep getting lower and lower as I work out. Change is not instantaneous- but working with hinge has helped me change the way I am able to move through my everyday life - with much more ease and much less pain. And Hinge is done in the privacy of your home. You can do the exercises when you travel ( if you get wifi service). I was able to get my husband to try it for his painful back. He is still using Hinge now, too. I highly recommend Hinge for those suffering as I was.

Hinge Health. This is a great app for physical therapy. I got the benefit from the company I work for and it’s been awesome to use. Basically, you choose a program for the pain you are experience and it will develop an exercise plan around that. It starts off easier and slowly gets harder. Also they have real PTs you can set up meetings and a health coach that checks in. If the workouts are too long or you aren’t seeing results, you can just message them and change it up. I’ve been doing it for 4 months and I’ve seen a lot of progress with back and neck pain (headaches). It’s really nice where instead of going to a PT office, you can do quick workouts at home that fit into your schedule and provide results. It’s just like anything though, in order to see results you need to stay consistent and build habits.

Modern therapy. I absolutely love the Hinge Health program. When done gradually, and consistently, I’m amazed at the benefits just 15 minutes a day makes! This program has made it to where even super busy people with low energy and little time can start and progress along an amazing healing journey!!! Update! I am six months into the program, and so happy to have started this healing journey! Had to go on a low inflammation diet along the way, but it was so worth it coupled with this program it’s been amazing! Update: I am so glad that this program makes it very easy to stick to! With just 15 to 20 minutes a day this gentle movement can really be amazing for keeping the body nimble and definitely help with overall feeling much better! An anti-inflammation, Diet plays a huge role in my journey also! I recommend this program to everyone I know!

Knee pain is nearly gone. Three years ago the pain in my left knee was so bad I went to the orthopedic surgeon to discuss replacement. I have arthritis but it was not completely bone-on-bone then. They gave me the booklet on replacing my knee and told me to come back when I couldn’t take the pain anymore. About nine months ago, I started the exercises with Hinge Health. At first, they were difficult because of the pain, but I did them three times a week. After a few months, the pain began to recede and after about seven months it was practically gone. If I twist it or put too much weight on it, I get twinges, but I avoid those situations. I am climbing mountains, playing pickleball, and paddleboarding with no pain! The exercises are targeted to your joint and do not take long to do. It is definitely worth a try to get your quality of life back without surgery. I did!

Makes so much difference in quality of life. I had always been an exerciser but in recent years hip pain began bothering me. I started limiting my exercise due to the pain and was sure I was on the road to a hip replacement and went for a hip x-ray. My energy level became affected and my flexibility was quickly eroding so that simple acts of bending, getting up from a chair, doing simple tasks and sleeping at night etc were all affected. After only two weeks of Hinge Health, I started to feel better. Now - a few months in - I am a transformed person. Back to normal activities without pain and walking a brisk 5 miles almost everyday. I swear by this program and am not even thinking about a hip replacement at this point. I’m even able to keep up with my 5 yr old and 3 yr old grandkids.

Amazing!. I cannot believe how convenient and effective hinge health has made the physical therapy process. I used to HATE physical therapy, taking hours out of your week driving somewhere just for a 15-30 minute session that never seemed to have any lasting benefits. Hinge Health is NOT that. They customize stretches sent straight to your device so you can do them when it works best for you. Working with your coach and Physical Therapist you can even modify type and duration to fit perfectly with your lifestyle. I honestly thought this would be a convenient way to check a box for my Dr. so that I could get into surgery to fix my pain. Turns out, Hinge Health fixed it so I don’t even have to mess with going under the knife. Full Win!! Highly recommend.

More helpful than expected. I started this app because I was having so much pain in my hips and knees that I didn’t want to do things. I was also worried that I was going to need knee surgery and was willing to try to this to avoid surgery. I am fairly regular with the exercises and have most definitely found pain relief. The exercises are moderately challenging and about the time I start to get bored, they change. The articles are either good reminders of things I do know or an interesting take on something I didn’t know. My only complaint is that you can no change your focus area once you select on without deleting the app and starting all over again. Luckily for me, there is a lot of cross over between the exercises for your hips and for your knees. I have recommended this to several people including my husband who recently had a knee replacement.

Effective alternative to PT in person. I had been dealing with hip pain for over 2 years-saw orthos, PTs, rested -all the things. I had gotten better with PT and was doing the exercises at home a few times a week but the pain would come back after a particularly tough week or I had to sit a lot. When Hinge Health was offered through my health insurance I thought “why not give it a try?” While the exercises are simpler than the ones in my PT they actually work. My hip pain is eliminated most days. I had a recent flair up in my other hip last week and while I wanted to freak out instead I did the program 4 days in a row.l and communicated thru the app what was going on. By the 4th day of had no pain. I recommend this to anyone dealing with chronic pain. Now I need a program for my upper back!

It really helps!. Sometimes we don’t realize how our pain keeps us from moving and how by NOT moving we are contributing more to our pain. Now, with Hinge, when I have that terrible ache and tightness at the end of my work day, instead of sitting down or laying down and wincing in pain- I will do my Hinge exercises- even if I don’t have my phone handy- I’ll run through my exercises- and magically- the movement and blood flow from the 10 minutes or so makes me feel so much better. I’m not completely pain free, but my pain level will go from a 7 to a 4 or 5. That is huge and helps me be more active, which, in turn, further reduces my pain. Thank you Hinge! Who knew that something so simple and not time consuming or costly could be so helpful!

Extremely helpful. I’ve loved using this app. I’ve had a lot of trouble finding the right exercises to help strengthen my back. This app slowly builds up the difficulty of various strengthening exercises and puts in stretches that release tension either didn’t know I was carrying around or that I didn’t know how to release. Having a coach has really helped with my accountability, so I put in more effort consistently than I might have otherwise. My coach has also been very helpful with suggesting modifications if I need them. After each exercise session, there’s also a helpful short article that gives some really good insight to what influences pain levels, ways to cope with pain, etc. I’ve been recommending this to many of my friends who also suffer from joint pain.

Small steps add up. In 2020, I had my first knee surgery: a partial replacement. I was told my other knee would probably need surgery in 2 years followed by total knee replacements in both knees and a high probability of a wheelchair late in life. I didn’t like that picture. We downsized our home and bought one with a pool. Utilizing it regularly helped. When Health Hinge was offered at work, I decided to add it to my routine. At first it didn’t seem like much, and yet I could feel some discomfort after completing the exercises. I persisted and saw my body strengthen. I can tell the difference when bending; I am stronger. That second knee surgery isn’t needed at this time (a year past the predicted timeline). My hope is by continuing to participate in these exercises, a wheelchair will never be required…time will tell. In the meantime, I am enjoying the improved movement.

Coaches are very responsive.. Provided through work benefits. It’s a great program, and you’re actually working with people who respond and truly cater your program for you. A coach to motivate you, even if you only respond maybe 1/8 times. And a PT that adjusts the workouts to your need. When I injured my ankle, they adjusted my plan to still get a target workout on my issue, Hip, and work my way back up to my feet. When I ghosted and fell off the wagon and stopped doing the exercises; no qualms. No beef. When I logged back in and did a work out. They were back. When I realized I needed to start back in the beginner workouts, and my ankle is still a little loose; boom, workouts set back to beginner, and modifications or different ways to stretch the same muscle that are nicer to my ankle. Highly recommend.

Life Changing. This app has changed my life. There are so many things that has improved in my body. I used to not be able to get dressed without leaning on a wall because I had so much pain in my lower back. Now I’m able just to lift my legs and get dressed with no problem at all. I literally tried this thinking it wasn’t gonna work, but when I started noticing improvements, I continued on, completed the whole program and I still do it all the time. If I get busy and I’m not able to do it, I can tell that my body definitely needs me to go back and open up my Hinge Health app and do stretches. I’ve even screenshot it some of the movements and do them in between patients if I’m able to and while I’m cooking dinner anytime I get a chance that I’m just standing by myself I will stretch.

App to Grow and Recover. I have constant back pain problems among other areas, but back is the worst. Through my employer in Jan 2021 I was able to start this program with a health coach, sensors & app. Wow! Who knew??? A short exercise focused on back issues, even shorter article to read and 15 minutes later I’m on my way. What I didn’t realize is the small consistent steps is what I needed more than a big blow out and back to chiropractor, big exercises for recovery & months of healing. This doesn’t stop those big moments but takes them down a whole heck of a lot and recovery was way faster. My health coach was a delight and worked with my style of encouragement needed. 💖 forever a life changer. I’ll continue this program even after my year is complete ❤️

Hinge Health. I joined Hinge Health over a year ago, when hip pain interfered with the yoga practice that was key to my stress management. When my insurance program announced Hinge Health, I decided to give it a try. As part of the program, I got a tablet loaded with graduated exercises tailored to my needs, and sensors to wear while exercising. The sensors provide immediate feedback, to maximize benefits of the hip exercises and avoid injury. I do the exercises most days every week while watching TV at home, and they take about 15 minutes. As an added benefit, a coach regularly cheers me on and keeps me motivated. After a week or two of the exercises, I noticed increased energy and range of motion. I began to experience greater ease doing yoga poses. About two months into the program, I stopped having hip pain during my sessions. Now, if I miss several sessions, I can tell a difference; the hip tightness begins to return. I enjoy the sessions so much, and the benefits are so clear, I return to my Hinge Health practice as soon as I can. Hinge Health has definitely been a game changer for me, and I plan to continue it. This small daily commitment has greatly improved my quality of life.

Great service. I joined Hinge based on recommendation from my insurance company. I’ve now been using it for several weeks, and so far it has been a good experience. The app is easy to use with clear video directions for each exercise. The total exercise time is pretty minimal. My health coach has been involved and helpful. I mentioned some past injuries unrelated to my primary condition, and she talked to the physical therapist who added some rehab for my ankle joints as well. When I assessed the exercises as a little too easy, they gave me more challenging ones. On the whole, easy to use and keep up with, adaptable for your lifestyle, and the exercises are having a positive effect on my pain level.

Sidebar Routines. I’ve been doing Hinge Health Playlist routines for over three years now. I have found the hip workouts, pretty clever, and they do a great job. Without a doubt, my overall health has improved. During this time, I have not always been consistent with the playlists, and when I am not, it’s been because of illness or injury. What I have discovered is that by sticking to my guns and returning to the playlist I also do extra workouts that many times doesn’t get registered on the Hinge Health program. For example, walking extra push-ups or just stretching along the way. Has been a nice addition to my overall health. I would not have been this consistent without Hinge Health and that’s the truth. Thanks.

Hinge Health Changed The Quality Of My Life!. When I started Hinge Health almost two years ago I thought I needed knee replacement. I was in constant discomfort and walked with a limp that was starting to cause pain in my hips. After 3 months of doing Hinge Health exercises I had no pain and no longer limped. I kept at it and two years later I am pain free, much stronger, and able to go on long walks again. I can squat, get on and off my knees, and go up and down stairs with no problem. My personal motto for this year is, “If you don’t run you will rust.” To me this means staying in motion is the key to increasing mobility and strength as I age. Give Hinge Health a try. I’m a believer in positive health changes the simple routines can make in your life!

Great P.T. for Anyone!. This app has made physical therapy, much more reasonable, and achievable for my needs. I had spent over a year trying to feel better after toe surgery - then later a car accident. I participated in physical therapy at two different locations. Pool therapy was amazing, but dry ground therapy in-between left me in debilitating pain for days on end. Giving up seemed the best option. My husband recommended Hinge Health. It didn’t take long for me to notice improvement. After six months I still feel pain, but my balance, flexibility, and range of motion are beyond my wildest dreams. My personal H.H. coach and physical therapist help me find appropriate exercises for my individual needs. Having the H.H. App on my phone is very convenient!

I’m free to do the things I want again. After years of lower back pain stemming from a herniated disc, I’ve been struggling with lingering pain since. After getting a mailer from Hinge I figured it was worth a shot, over a year later and many short sessions of the app, I can say I’m pretty much pain free. I can golf again, which I honestly gave up because it would wreck me for a few days. That’s just one of many things I’m able to do again with confidence. The support you get from your coach is great and motivating to continue on. I only wish it went beyond level 40 but even though I’ve made it to the end, I still randomly pick a level and complete it, aiming for a few times a week. Thanks Hinge.

Great app. I have been using the running based program to assist with the necessary stretches pre-run. I started with the back program, but when the pain subsided, I switched. It really works and I’ll testify that to anyone. It does require some self motivation, but when that’s lacking, here comes your personal coach to get you back on track. Great program with excellent coaching and guaranteed results when paired with dedication and routine. * For the Dev team: One thing that would make this app more functional is to play in the background, and/or split screen. These are great activities to do while in remote meetings, long discussions, or any activity of the sort. I use 2 devices to get around it, but it would be nice to accomplish it with 1.

Now I believe. I am 74 Almost three weeks ago I tore something in my glutes and went to the emergency room because I could hardly walk. With in a day I could walk with a crutch within three days I could walk without a crutch although it was painful and I was unsteady. It is my belief that the program had strengthened my muscles and agility so I could move and didn’t fall. I am getting a MRI This weekend to know what I tore and will keep you informed so I can continue training. When I started I thought this is a joke but soon realized that this is a low impact extremely efficient way to gain strength and relieve pain. I am glad I went against my first thought and really tried to work it because it works. Thanks.

Helps my knees!. I enrolled in the knee program at the end of 2019 and had good progress with my knee pain for a few months, but stopped using the app and doing the exercises during the pandemic. On a whim in early January 2023 I logged in and restarted the program because my knees had been giving me trouble and I was tired of being in pain. It wasn’t terrible pain, but being only 37 I didn’t think I should have to deal with it! I’ve been trying to get at least 3 sessions in a week since I started back and have only had a couple weeks that I didn’t meet that goal. The exercises really help with my pain and I can feel it creeping back if I miss a week. Definitely give it a shot!

Best thing to happen to me!. Hinge Health has helped me with my hip pain! It is now almost non-existent. I’ve had 2 Injections into my hip over the past 5 years. Every time I tried to exercise, I would over do it. Or I was doing it incorrectly and I would be in pain again. I was taking muscle relaxers and Meloxicam every day. Hinge Health started with slow exercises. At first, I didn’t think it was doing anything for me, but I stuck with it 3 times a week. After 2 weeks, I realized that my hips were not hurting after work as much. That was March 2023. Now after 8 months I’m almost pain free. I can climb stairs quickly and I can get up off the floor without crawling to piece of furniture to get up. I can bend over and squat down to pick things up off the floor. Hinge health has been a life saver.

Reviewing Hinge for Larry. After retiring from school counseling in 2018 I got an infection that settled in my spine. I was suddenly paralyzed from the waist down. Surgery and antibiotics took care of the infection, but I was left with a long road of physical therapy. Thankfully, though I am a paraplegic , I can walk. I live in constant pain, but therapy does ease it. Then when the COVID epidemic hit I was housebound for about 2 years. I could not make myself be consistent in doing my exercises at home. It got rather depressing. I'm not sure why, but I feel much more motivated to do Hinge. After about 6 weeks I can tell my movement is better. I will always have back pain, but thank God for Hinge. I feel a little more in control of it. The coaching and convenience of the program is fantastic!
