SWORD HEALTH – Meet A Vendor

Shortlister hosted Tom Goldhardt, Director of Corporate Sales, and Ashley Bass, Clinical Specialist at Sword Health. They discussed Sword Health’s expanding treatment focus and recent announcements about Sword shifting the digital MSK care industry toward a broader focus.

LIVING WITH PAIN CAN MASSIVELY AFFECT YOUR OVERALL WELLBEING

Pain impacts all areas of our well-being:

  • Physical activity
  • Productivity
  • Financial health
  • Hobbies and leisure
  • Stress levels
  • Social life and relationships
  • Sleep
  • Mood and appetite

These negative changes in our lifestyle can increase our pain and dampen our overall mood. The frustration of dealing with this can result in depression and anxiety.

Sword Health believes that musculoskeletal health is the key to holistic care. Addressing MSK pain can lead to health improvements across organizations.

SWORD’S WHOLE-PERSON APPROACH

Sword Health, a clinically proven end-to-end digital solution for workforces suffering from musculoskeletal disorders, is on a mission to free 2 billion people from pain. It starts with a dedicated Doctor of Physical Therapy who creates a highly personalized treatment plan and stays with the member throughout the whole journey.

Sword offers clinical-grade physical therapy virtually with these three key ingredients:

  1. Clinical experts provide all the care, never non-clinical staff.
  2. Biofeedback from FDA-listed tech – Wearable sensors and computer vision measure the quality of every exercise.
