Recovering from hip replacement, managing knee osteoarthritis, or preparing for surgery? Curovate offers gentle, progressive physical therapy exercises and prehab programs to build strength and range of motion at home.

This all was excellent to track progress and stay on point with exercises after my knee injury. sometimes you know what you ar supposed to do but having this app helped me time what needed to be done and stick to it. I didn't use the talk to a professional feature since I didn't need it but the rest of it like the exercises, ease of use and measurement was great.

Hi Shreyas, thank you very much for the thoughtful and thorough review of Curovate. I’m glad that the exercise videos, checklists and information within the app are helpful for your knee injury recovery. The timing in the app for the exercise videos is also based on your stage of recovery. All the best with your continued knee recovery.

Good exercises list with program and goals, very useful the measurement of the extension and flexion degrees to track progress. Unfortunately the timers do not work very well, there's no pause between reps, while waiting the next exercise it already starts counting down, and there's no way to skip the last exercise. Anyway i think I'll keep using it, hoping it will get better over time

Hi Lau, once an exercise starts you can always pause it by tapping on the screen. You are correct that in between 2 exercises there isn't a pause function. Currently, when a exercise is playing you will see 2 small arrows - one to go back and one to skip an exercise. Please email me and I can provide you with some more assistance meetcura@gmail.com

Really great exercises with video demo and written explanation. You can personalise it to suit the type of injury and stage of recovery, and progress to harder exercises as you improve. The app will remind you to do your exercises 3 times a day. I paid for the subscription and had a video session with Nirtal, which was super helpful. He was very knowledgeable and generous with his time, and I would thoroughly recommend this app to anyone looking for good physio exercises for an ACL injury.

Hi Kassia, thank you for the fantastic review. It was a pleasure working with you. It's always nice to see people like you who are so motivated to recover and work really hard on their daily rehabilitation exercises. Makes my job as a physio so much easier! I look forward to hearing about your recovery progress.
