PRECISION MEDICINE FOR LOWER BACK PAIN

Apos® isn’t surgery, so there’s no “recovery time” in the traditional sense. This non-invasive program works as you go about your daily life, retraining your body to move with less pressure on your lower extremities,⁴ improved balance,⁵ faster walking speed,⁵ and enhanced overall mobility⁶. Many people start noticing improvements within weeks, with progress building over time.

About an hour. When you begin the treatment you start out wearing the shoes for only about 20 minutes a day. Your designated Apos® clinician will guide you with a personalized treatment plan.

Understanding the root cause of your back pain can be a game changer, and our Apos® physical therapists can help you get a clearer picture during your Initial Evaluation.

Have you ever noticed how one problem often leads to another? For example, back pain can inhibit the way your body moves, leading to issues like knee pain, hip pain, or even more back pain. But it doesn’t end there. Once your body’s alignment is “out of whack,” it creates a cycle of pain and discomfort that is likely to keep making itself worse over time. Apos® helps break this downward spiral by retraining your body to move and walk in a healthier, more balanced way.

Nope. You only need to be on your feet for a fraction of the time. It’s important to give the muscles in your back, hips, knees, and ankles time to rest. Your Apos® physical therapist will provide you with personalized guidance.

Apos® is FDA-cleared for treating chronic knee conditions and is FDA-registered and evidence based for relieving chronic lower back and hip pain.

Apos® is also recommended by the UK’s National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) for knee osteoarthritis patients who are candidates for total knee replacement surgery.⁹

Apos® aims to improve well-being over time by addressing back pain through a personalized program. Many people notice positive changes in their movement and comfort within weeks, but long-term benefits typically build over several months with consistent use. The exact timeline varies based on individual needs and adherence.

Apos® is designed to enhance your overall well-being if you have back pain, helping to improve how you move and feel. While its effectiveness in back pain wellness is promising, more studies are underway. If you also experience knee pain, Apos® has been shown to help knee osteoarthritis patients avoid surgery, with 89% of candidates delaying knee replacement for up to six years in a 2023 study.¹⁰

Yes! An Apos® product specialist can come to your home, bringing all the necessary equipment. During the visit, which takes between 30 minutes to an hour, your physical therapist will join via telemedicine to guide the process and ensure your treatment is tailored to your needs. Once you have the Apos® medical foot-worn device, you just wear it for around an hour a day while going about your regular activities at home.

There are over 70 peer-reviewed publications showing the efficacy of Apos®. To learn more about clinical studies on Apos®, see here.
