It makes sense

Anytime I’ve been under stress I experienced pain of some sort. Somehow my subconscious was just trying to protect me. Learn how to deal with your pain using this app. I particularly like the podcasts.

Curable Success

I’m a veteran with PTSD and Curable has helped change my life. Not only do I have my life back, I am now committed to helping others find relief from pain… physical and mental/emotional.

Keep up the awesome work Curable, you are on a healing mission and it shows!

Essential tool for managing and understanding chronic pain

I’ve only been using Curable for a month and I’m already seeing great benefits. The mind-body approach to healing that the app promotes is a true revelation for me. Now that I’ve started to understand the cause of my pain and how my mind works, I feel hopeful that I might be able to move beyond my pain for the first time in years.

The education and exercises in the app are well presented and backed by the latest in pain science. There are also expert interviews and recovery stories which I’ve found to be a great source of encouragement. I highly recommend this app to anyone who’s suffering from chronic pain, and to keep an open mind towards the ideas and techniques presented.

Hi there - Congratulations on your early results! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. Wishing you all the best, Jack from Curable Support

Best thing I could have found.

I started using Curable last October after two years of nerve pain following surgery that had complications.
I managed to calm down my pain using the Ap, quite considerably. I found it easy to use, it’s like having your own personal therapist to hand at all times.
I find it calming and reassuring and could relate to almost everything.
In March I had nerve surgery which went well, however I have slipped back into the negative thinking and worrying about the pain and if the pain will ever go away again. So, I started my curable journey again from the beginning, as I know it will help me to calm down and turn down the volume on my pain. I am positive I will be pain free, or almost in a few months. That’s the plan!

Extremely helpful

I have suffered from chronic low back pain and sciatica for 47 years. I feel I never coped well emotionally with the pain, mainly because I didn’t understand it. I tried MANY medical and alternative strategies. There were years when I did cope a bit better than others. I made unhelpful decisions about occupations which made my problem worse but I felt I had to. I’m retired now but now that I’m older the condition I have has worsened and disrupts my sleep. There are times I feel so alone and desperate. I was introduced to the Curable app on Facebook and thought about looking into it but didn’t do it for months. I was discouraged I guess. Boy, am I glad I finally bought the Curable app. My goal is to lessen the use of pain medication, which for the last few years has caused so much depression and fatigue.
I have found the information available on the Curable app to be extremely helpful. I am now thinking of trying the group option.

Game Changing

I have been dealing with the effects of Peripheral Neuropathy for at least six months now and I was going out of my mind. A friend of mine who works in the pain clinic at a local hospital, steered me to this app Curable. It is the first time that I finally felt a bit more in the driver seat. I use the app daily. I have come to appreciate that brain body link which is so vital to our well-being. The panic button and the ability to choose how I want to deal with the pain or my anxiety helps to keep me engaged in the process And gives me a sense of control.

I have read some of the low star ratings for this app. Many of them seem very angry - unreasonably so. But that’s what chronic pain does. We want someone to just take it away and if that is not accessible then it flares up as anger.

If you are the type of person who is really really left brain then this is probably not for you. If you are the kind of person who is fairly rigid and wanting results quickly, not going to happen.

I may only get 10 minutes of pain relief from using this app, but that 10 minutes is glorious. Thank you.

Somewhat helpful but dodgy re-subscription approach

The content is somewhat helpful but I received no email reminder about the subscription renewal, and no receipt upon it renewing. If I had of received these I would have cancelled in advance, or used their 30 day refund process. However, after a busy Christmas and new year period I noticed it charged to my credit card ($25 more than the previous year!) and because it had renewed more than 30 days prior I contacted them via the email - I received an automated response first, and then another reply where they addressed it to someone else’s name, despite my clear email sign off and signature. This again leads me to think that it is purely automated. They claim I got a reminder email but I never did and I have re-searched back through my email account. It very much feels like one of those subscription traps and I aim to progress it through our relevant consumer affairs ombudsman. If you subscribe don’t assume they’ll remind you like other companies do - be sure to put a reminder in your calendar well in advance of the renewal date.

Hi there - We are sorry about any frustration this situation may have caused. Our subscriptions renew annually or monthly depending on your plan and we do send renewal reminder emails before all renewals occur (although sometimes these emails can get lost in junk or spam folders). We hope your time with Curable was helpful in some way and we wish you all the best in your healing journey. Sincerely, Maggie from Curable Support

The best thing people who suffer from chronic pain can do for themselves

Not sure how anyone cannot get something from this app. The recovery stories and education alone are amazing. This group had done a fabulous job with Curable. If you can’t afford it you can still get some free resources and also Jon. The Facebook group. If more people knew about this there would be so much less suffering, less surgeries freeing up surgeons to do other work. I could go on and on. My own pain has gone from a 10 to a 2 and it has sustained over several years. The app got me thru a cracked tooth crisis and I am working on some new pain now. Fully confident if I do the required work things will improve. It was the science which finally convinced me !

SO WORTH IT!

I thought about purchasing this for weeks but then realised that for a small amount of money I can actually be pain free! I’ve been suffering from migraine for 25 years now and finally can see some improvements. My favourite here is the meditation but honestly having Curable guide you based in your preferred tools is so helpful! There is also a “panic button” that can assist you to calm down during an episode. It helped me once and the migraine didn’t push through.

Terrible app. Refused to refund money despite it being medically contraindicated for me

Unimpressed with the management of this app. I tried to use this to help resolve post concussion syndrome for an MTBI.

Bombardment with unhelpful prompts at an extraordinary rate that was more ADD than it was anything else. if I wanted to sit in the middle of a chase scene in a movie, that’s the energy that they set their pace of prompts to when you try to engage with the app. it was unbelievable and unhelpful.

Unimpressed from end end on what they say they do and what they actually do.

I would very much like my money back, and they have point-blank refused to provide it despite not being able to use it and despite my medical team telling me it was not helpful for me in my recovery.

They are riding on the back of the Curable podcasts that discuss pain, but this is not what this app provides.

And in fact, these two companies are completely unrelated, and the Curable app is misrepresenting themselves.
