(0) What does the app do?
This app aims to provide support and guidance for people with back, neck, upper limb and lower limb joint pain or stiffness as a result of injury or other causes. The home screen is divided into 4 body-part sections: back, neck, upper limb (shoulder, elbow, hand, wrist, fingers) and lower limb (knee, ankle, foot, leg, hip). Each section has further sub-sections:
- Info gives an overview of pain associated with that body part, symptoms, conditions and self-help advice.
- Leaflets links to leaflets and website giving details of different exercises.
- Videos has videos showing how to do different exercises.
