A new way to get help How Upswing works
1
Find out what’s wrong in minutes
When you’re in pain the first thing you want to know is if you need to go see a doctor. But most muscle and joint pain, whether from recent injuries or ongoing conditions don’t need medical intervention; they can be treated at home with simple physical therapist recommended exercises.
That’s why our free assessment tool also provides you with free downloadable exercises developed by licensed physical therapists to treat your injury. Just answer a few questions about your symptoms and our AI-powered app, designed by orthopedic doctors, will tell you in minutes your most likely condition and how serious it is.
For most people who visit Upswing Health, this is probably all you need, but if your possible diagnosis is more complex, you’ll proceed to Step 2.

Talk to a medical professional now
If your assessment indicates that you may have a more severe injury – or if you just want to discuss your symptoms with a live medical professional – Upswing’s Health Coaches are available for live video chats with you 7 days a week between 8am and 8pm (ET).
Upswing’s Health Coaches are all licensed medical professionals, usually Certified Athletic Trainers. If your condition requires a doctor, you’ll get prompt access by phone or video call with an orthopedic physician for assessment and treatment. But for most injuries, your health coach will provide a specific set of physical therapist designed exercises that you can do at home and will check in with you during your recovery to make sure you’re doing better.
These live on-demand medical consultations are free for members, and soon will be available as a low fee-per-call service to anyone.

Consult with a specialist
Occasionally an injury might require the expert opinion of an orthopedic physician. When that happens, you don’t need to wait for your primary care physician to make a referral; your Health Coach can set up a video call for you.
The best part is that you’ll be put into contact with the right specialist for your particular issue. All Upswing Health Coaches and doctors specialize in muscle, joint and movement injury treatment and are the first points of contact to a deep network of orthopedic and physical therapy experts who can often resolve the issue without an in-person visit.
Telemedicine consultations with our specialist physicians are free for Upswing Health members and may be available on a fee-per-service basis in your area for non-members.

Direct in-network referrals
For complex injuries that require in-person medical care, Upswing will facilitate making an appointment for you with a recommended orthopedic surgeon in your insurance network.
You’ll be able to get direct access to specialists, surgeons, labs and MRI or XRay providers without having to wait for a visit to your primary care physician’s office.
Direct referral services are free for Upswing Health members.
