The website allows users to first chat with either a doctor or an AI to receive a diagnosis. Using the chat option, the website will ask users to describe their injury so they can accurately diagnose the user with rehabilitation exercises. After, the user can use the track option to track their progress and range of motion whilst performing the exercises. This allows the user to ensure that they are doing the exercises correctly in order to heal accurately.
