Chronic pain f***ing sucks. Our team felt this firsthand, and enlisted a world class team of pain experts to design a 12-week curated program designed to take you from pain state, to flow state

“Flowly helps manage not only the physical aspects of living with pain and anxiety, but also offers invaluable support to overcome the mental challenges that come along with it.” -Dr. Aman Mahajan, Chair of Perioperative Medicine at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center

“Flowly’s virtual worlds help users reclaim a sense of calm and safety at the emotional and physical level, thus allowing them to reduce activation in their nervous system and pain in their body.” -Pierre Etienne-Vannier, Mind-Body Practitioner

*How Does It Work?*

Flowly’s Healing from Pain Program is a curated 12-week program with new lessons, daily trainings, and access to a coach included

Weeks 1-4: Building the Foundation
In your first week, you will receive a Kit that includes a VR headset and a HR sensor so you can engage in your daily VR nervous system training. You will also schedule your first of three Flowly Coaching sessions to set your goals for the program, design your Flowly routine moving forward, and answer any questions you might have

Weeks 5-8: Cultivating Intrinsic Brain-Body Regulation
Engage in trainings that utilize your nervous system to take control of various psychological and emotional aspects of your chronic pain experience. All while discovering new environments and tools to create physical safety. Meet with your Flowly coach for your second session to check in on progress and goals

Weeks 9-12: Establishing Enduring Practice
Reinforcing all the training you have accomplished so far, we will put together all the tools and learnings into a daily ritual that best fits your life now, but most importantly, your life and dreams moving forward. You will also meet with your coach for your last session to wrap up your program and establish your steps moving forward

All throughout the program, you will have access to:
* Bubbles: virtual small support groups where heroes can connect with one another and engage in activities to do with improving their health
* Workshops: with health experts and specialists on specific educational health topics
* Tools: 2D breathwork guides, educational articles, and more in the Resources tab in-app
* Forum: a community forum where heroes can share their experiences and questions

After 3 months you will have the opportunity to go into “Maintenance Mode” with continued access to the program content, new VR worlds and experiences, and other in-app resources.

*Can This Actually Work?*

Flowly marries two powerful approaches: biofeedback for relaxation training and Virtual Reality. There are 1,000+ studies dedicated to both therapies for pain. Flowly itself is partnered with UPMC and USC for studies with a grant awarded by the National Institute of Health.

Dr. Robert Tien, the former Chair of Neuroradiology at Duke, says this, “Flowly’s experiences help enhance a user’s Vagus Nerve function, which plays a crucial role in preventing inflammation, increasing heart resilience, and treating symptoms of chronic pain and anxiety. Flowly is fun and accessible, but ultimately, can seriously improve overall life quality with consistent use”
