Hinge Health Bewertungen 68

The program I’m using is via app on iPhone. I do not pay additional amount over my insurance. I had a back pain that went away after 8 levels — something that was low grade but not terrible. During this time my shoulder was getting to be very painful flowing a course of in-person PT. So I asked to switch from my back to the shoulder program. I am definitely seeing a significant improvement at 3/4 through the program. The PT is available to me for questions. The coaches do not do much for me, but that is fine and the way I like it. I’d recommend it for anyone who it’s available for.

This company, through my insurance program is charging "subscription" fees. I had one call, downloaded their app, indicated a pain point (you can only select one body part per "subscription") and got a few generic stretching exercises. I then noticed the $1000 claim on my insurance. I called my insurance company to find out what it was for and it was for "evaluation" (i.e. the questions I answered in the app). I then called Hinge to cancel so I didn't get charged again and told it was for a year's subscription. I said maybe I'd try something for a different body part pain, and she said "oh, that will be a new subscription and "care team". And we wonder why healthcare costs are so high :(

Hinge Health will supply you with a kit that includes a zippered pouch, 3 resistance bands of varying strength, motion detectors, and an Android device that has their app on it. (You need to use the app to know how to do the exercises.) The motion detectors are used to help ensure that the exercises are being done correctly. After a while you don't really need to use the monitors. You will also be assigned a Coach who helps monitor your progress and encourages you. There are forty levels of exercises, then you can continue as maintenance. HH has PhD-level Physical Therapists on staff, and they can be consulted through your coach when you are having difficulty with the exercises or even other issues. IMO it is a legit and helpful program, and I am convinced that it helped me avoid shoulder surgery.

Definitely a data mining enterprise. Only works with an app, but fortunately they will send you a tablet for free, and I only use the tablet with this app and have a dedicated email account only for this program, and I gave them a fake phone number. They will only help with one problem at a time, so it's not in any way comprehensive. If you have a knee problem and a back problem, you are out of luck and will have to get a real medical provider, which defeats the whole purpose of a program like this.

I have been on the Hinge Health program for over 1 1/2 years, and absolutely LOVE it! Since I started with it, it has helped me NOT have to get spinal shots for lower back and iliotibial band (side of leg) pain. I try to do a session which are very doable, can pick the level of difficulty, every morning and what a difference it makes!!! I wake up bent over and walk very slowly but once I "get my stretches in" I am good for the day.

I got this free through my employer -- I certainly wouldn't pay for it myself. The app is alright, but the rest of it is just annoying. Don't trust their customer service staff -- those people don't seem to have a clue how the service actually operates. Don't trust the account settings either -- they may ask for your contact preferences, but then they're going to go ahead and completely ignore those preferences and do whatever they want. I HIGHLY recommend giving them a fake phone number -- you can't change it later, and while there's an option to opt out of texts they will ignore that and text you anyway. Basically if you do sign up I'd suggest to give them as much false information as you can and completely ignore any attempt they make to contact you. But the app isn't bad -- it has lots of room for improvement (they need fewer "coaches" and customer support staff and more app devs IMO) but it basically works as advertised -- gives customized routines of stretches and exercises, tracks your progress, and has some gamification elements for a bit of extra motivation. And refreshingly, no ads...which shouldn't need to be said about a paid app but these days it probably does...

(Edit: Originally this was a 2 star review, but somehow TrustPilot decided that leaving a two star review when they so far only had a single one star review increased their overall rating to three stars...so I've reduced mine to 1 star to compensate)

Part of the problem not the solution

Scum data broker company gets employee data from companies then sends emails and also post cards with open face, no privacy, in a way that allows others to create a profile with where someone works, lives, what kind of health they may have.
