Our take
Embracing a healthy lifestyle is crucial for overcoming both short and long-term health challenges, as well as fostering fulfilment, productivity and longevity. However, it can prove difficult for individuals to make healthy, sustainable changes to their lifestyles on their own.
Physitrack is an app making its mark in the Patient Engagement Solutions market. It enables healthcare organizations to cater to the digital needs of their patients with telehealth services including exercise regimes, fitness and health education tools.
The company is one strand of the larger Physitrack Group that hosts other digital tools for healthcare providers, as well as holistic telehealth services for the workplace. Since its founding in 2012, Physitrack has expanded internationally, re-launched its app in 2015 to become a part of Apple's global accelerator program for iOS, and joined forces with the employee wellbeing provider, Champion Health in 2022.
Interestingly, the concept for Physitrack originated from a family member suggesting an "exercises" app after an injury. From this idea, it has grown immensely, evolving with innovations in the tech space to introduce, for example, AI-led features. Now a million-dollar funded application, we’re sure the company’s place in the market will remain strong long into the future.
