Member Stories
From pain to possibility
Hear from members who’ve reclaimed their lives with Thrive – reducing pain, avoiding surgeries, and getting back to what matters most.
Being able to do the sessions anytime with my PT support gave me better and faster results than conventional physical therapy. I am so grateful for my PT and to Sword!
You have the power to get out of [pain]. It's a very isolating feeling, and this journey has let me be so much more present. I'm excited I get to do this with my kids.
I've done a lot of conventional PT, but I love doing it with Sword. The exercises challenge me, and I can feel the evolution.
I battled a shoulder injury for years and even had surgery in 2017 but I was still in pain. With Sword, I am pain free with a full range of movement that I didn’t have before!
When I went to a clinic, the therapist just explained the exercise and I did it by myself. With Sword, there is constant feedback and the exercises are adapted to my needs.
[Sword] helped me stay away from obesity...and it helped me find my path as a father so my kids have a good role model. Being able to move is a blessing.
