Review by Rachael Davis Owner of Remedy Pilates and Physiotherapy Clinic, Bray, Co. Wicklow, Ireland.
Being an old fashioned pen and paper girl I usually find all things technology difficult. I am a clinician and not an artist and therefore my drawings of specific exercises prescribed to my patients were never perfect. I also found using typical exercise sheets were too generalised and not functional. Trying to get clients and patients to comply with their home exercise program was always difficult. Those that did stick to a program would contact us frequently to revise the exercises prescribed as they were not sure what to do once away from the studio.
When I was introduced to Phydeo, an exercise prescription app all the above problems were solved. Using this app in both our Pilates studio and Physiotherapy practice the client is recorded with a tablet or smart phone, we conveniently email them the video of the movement or exercise, and they instantly have a copy of their home exercise program to practice.

I find this extremely easy and practical to use and our clients are delighted to have a visual video to follow. This ensures client compliance as they can see and hear their exercises being instructed. Clients are clear about their exercise program and they have no need to contact us to go through their program a second time. This is another benefit to the Phyeo app as clients get results faster. Feedback from our clients has been very positive and I feel that both myself and my studio have transfered from that old pen and paper girl to a very modern, easy to use exercise prescription of the future. Thank you Phydeo!
