Imagine having crippling back pain, but there’s a four month waiting list for a physiotherpist. Alternatively, you have instant access to an AI-based physiotherapy system. 80% of adults have significant back pain at some point, so there’s an excellent chance that this kind of choice is one you will have to make.

But can it be made to work? Is the technology ready? Would it be accepted by governments and patients? Are there issues with patient safety?

With me is Finn Stevenson, who is working on precisely this idea. He is a former medic, and CEO of Flok Health.
