Symbodi, 2024 to 2025

Symbodi Recovery Network

Software that turns a phone into a recovery coach. It finds the product on the wall, maps your back, tracks every session, and connects you to a clinician by video.

The problem

Massage at home is guesswork. Nobody tells you where to press, for how long, or whether yesterday's session helped.

The limit

A phone can't feel a back, so the app has to see it. It locates reference points on the body, scales a muscle map to fit them, and tracks the product against that map.

What I did

  • Calibration: before a session, the phone finds the product on the wall.
  • A personal back map: a standard muscle model, scaled to your own reference points.
  • Session tracking: the pressure path of each session, and how you feel afterwards, three times through the day.
  • Clinicians: a session by video with a certified clinician, and a marketplace for their courses.
  • The in-store TryMe pillar, with an interactive back map beside the product.

Details to confirm.

The result

Designed and prototyped as the software layer for Vertiball, Vertiroller and Vertigun.

Four phone screens in a row, from calibrating the Vertiball's position on the wall to tracking a session over a live camera view and reviewing a muscle map.
