How long do I have to complete my program?

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.

Foot pain

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.
Adrienne

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!
Donnie
Shoulder pain

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.
