Re: Show HN: Relief – Physical Therapy Programs to Fix Back Pain and Posture
#2Hi HN!
I’ve struggled with back / neck / wrist pain (like many programmers do) for the past few years, spending countless dollars on physical therapy, chiropractors, and gimmicky products.
This inspired me to collaborate with a few physical therapists and fitness trainers. We built Relief to provide evidence-based treatment programs delivered through high-quality guided videos. Examples include the 7-day low back pain program, McKenzie Method, 7-day posture program, forward head + anterior pelvic tilt corrective routines, yoga for back pain, and more. Think Calm / Headspace for musculoskeletal problems.
I’d love to get some feedback and hear about your experiences with musculoskeletal pain! We’ve made a bunch of the content free, and the rest can be accessed through a no-risk free trial.

#3Been using this for 1.5 weeks and I can say the content is high-quality and I'm already experiencing reduced pain in my sciatic nerve (started a few months ago, didn't have time nor money to see PT). Would recommend you give this a shot.

If you don't mind, I was wondering what payment system to you use for the subscription stuff? Is it something like Zuora? Or did you have to build it from scratch?

I looked into Zuora (really expensive) as well as some other systems like Chargebee, Recurly, etc. I ended up building it with Stripe Billing, since it was actually quite straightforward and offered a lot of flexibility with features. I think a benefit of using something like Chargebee though is that you can also take Paypal

#9> On average, Relief’s physical therapy, yoga, and mindfulness sessions help users reduce pain by 60% in the first month. It's more effective than surgery or injections.
