► #1 APP FOR CHRONIC PAIN RELIEF Struggling with chronic pain, migraine, or persistent back pain? You're not alone. Your pain is real. So is your ability to heal. Over 1 million people have used Curable to find lasting relief from chronic pain and symptoms, including back pain, migraine, fibromyalgia, sciatica, and more. ► CURABLE IS CLINICALLY PROVEN Significantly reduces symptoms in people with long-term conditions: ◆ Back pain ◆ Migraine ◆ Sciatica ◆ Fibromyalgia ◆ Neck pain ◆ Joint pain ◆ Pelvic pain ◆ Knee pain ◆ Hip pain Curable is not a symptom tracker. It's a symptom transformer. 69% of users report physical symptom relief in just 30 days. ► WHAT MAKES CURABLE DIFFERENT? Breakthrough neuroscience shows that up to 90% of chronic pain is generated in the brain, not from lasting injury. That doesn’t mean the pain isn’t real—it means there’s a powerful path to relief. Curable helps you treat pain at its true source with evidence-based tools that support recovery. ► RETRAIN YOUR BRAIN. RECLAIM YOUR LIFE. Curable’s unique program targets the brain’s role in pain using a combination of: ◆ 100+ science-backed exercises to reduce stress and relieve pain: CBT, meditation, expressive writing, somatic tracking & more ◆ Audio lessons on the latest pain science ◆ Tools for instant relief ◆ Custom plans based on your symptoms ◆ Smart coaching from Clara, your virtual guide ◆ Live Q&As and group workshops with leading mindbody experts Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, recurring migraine, or years of unexplained symptoms, Curable can help you get to the root cause and support your healing — without medication, physical therapy, or invasive procedures. ► BUILT BY EXPERTS. TRUSTED BY DOCTORS. LOVED BY USERS. Curable is based on the biopsychosocial model of pain, with input from leading specialists at Mayo Clinic, Johns Hopkins, Stanford, and more. Your pain is real. So is your ability to heal. If you’ve tried everything and the pain remains, let Curable guide you toward a new path forward. “Transformative. That’s the only way I can describe it. Yes, an APP has changed my life. Learning about the science of pain and mindbody medicine and chronic pain management techniques has completely transformed my life of 20+ years of migraine... I had low expectations but experienced monumental results almost instantly. Curable has completely redefined my relationship to my headaches. For me, a life saver.” - Sources: 1.

I love this app! It does what it says!

This app is so good! If you have any uncontrollable pain, or even a persistent discomfort, this app can help you. There is a wealth of knowledge that helps you understand that your brain is what tells us that we have pain. All pain originates in our brain - this does NOT mean the pain is in our heads, but that our brains generate the amount of pain we feel. We can also change our brain’s response to something that has caused us pain, and therefore reduce the pain. Knowledge is power, and in this case it is a scientifically proven, therapeutic way to reduce pain. I also love the recovery stories and expert interviews. There is guided meditation to help you relax (not my favorite because I don’t like her voice - I use a different exercise app), writing activities, and brain training. The only thing I wish were improved was that there would be more education and brain training into opportunities. For me, these alone helped get rid of my pain. It also reduced or eliminated other uncomfortable sensations I was feeling in my body (e.g., a really weird metallic/sour taste in my mouth I experienced for 9 months with no other medical explanation). I really think it was stress, and this app took it away for me! Please don’t hesitate to buy this app. It is worth it’s weight in gold (and cost of medical and psychotherapy sessions)!

40 years of pain GONE

I am 57 years old, and I’ve been suffering from back pain since I was in my teens. For many years as a teenager I saw a physical therapist to help with my back pain. Unfortunately, it only helped a little. I live a very healthy lifestyle, and about 3 to 5 times a year my back will go out, and I will be completely debilitated for several days. Sometimes I am completely unable to even get off the floor or get out of bed as the pain is unbearable. The only thing I have found that helps is to continually exercise. Over the years I’ve consulted with many surgeons that said I was not a candidate for surgery. A few years ago I started getting epidural injections that would minimize the frequency of my severe lower back spasms. Of course I don’t like getting the injections and I haven’t had one in over 14 months. 2 1/2 months ago, I started using the Curable app and I’ve been 90% pain-free. I still have experienced back spasms, but unlike previously when I would be bedridden for a day or two and have to take pain pills and anti inflammatories and miss work for a few days, now my spasms go away within about a minute and so does the pain. I’m blown away by the results and am enjoying the process along the way. I honestly thought that I was going to live with this condition for the rest of my life, but now I know there’s a better way.

Helping me manage pain from FAI/ labral tears/ back pain - amazing!

This app has been an absolute lifesaver over the past month. I was laid up in bed for 10 days not only with the pain of my congenital injury, but also with side effects of prednisone which led to excruciating muscle spasms in my quads that forced me completely out of commission because of the pain. I was on hydrocodone, but I was able to wean off of it by using this app to change my relationship with the pain and to breathe into a different mindset. Just this morning, I woke up with my back spasming, and I immediately went into fear mode. But I put on a meditation from this app, and I was able to calm my mind and my body, and therefore the pain has subsided considerably and I am able to move and function today. I also just completed the journal, and it helped calm my perspective on what lies ahead for me. I love that all of the lessons are research-based with valid scientific evidence. I hold a Master’s Degree in Kinesiology with a focus on Integrative Wellness, and so I understand the research that is relevant to this app since I have studied it previously. Even with that “logical” background, I am human and can still spiral into overwhelm and fear when the pain flares up. This app is just so well-designed, and I find myself recommending it to everyone I know who might be dealing with pain. Highly recommend!

This app seriously saved my life

I had chronic back pain for eight years, seeing every doctor, being told that there was nothing they could see wrong with my back, and I really didn’t know where else to go. My life had become incredibly limited by the pain that I experienced, and I was in a pretty dark place. A physical therapist handed me the book Explain Your Pain by Dr. Lorimer Mosley, and through looking at the resources in that book I discovered, through a series of steps, the Curable app. I devotedly worked through the exercises in the Curable app and learned, for the first time in my life about the emotional and psychological connections to physical pain, and the way a hypervigilant nervous system can create sensations of physical pain in the body. I also contacted a member of Curable’s scientific advisory board, Dr. John Stracks, and joined his mind-body education groups. Using both of these resources, over a year and a half, I was able to get my pain from an 8-9 to a 1-2 and sometimes a zero. It was absolutely incredible. I experienced more physical freedom than I have had in a decade. I recently went through an emotionally stressful period and my pain has been creeping up again. I am back in the Curable app, using the exercises, and I am so thankful for it. If you have chronic physical symptoms, I cannot recommend this app enough.
