        Help us keep PhysioDock free

        All content on PhysioDock is free – but it costs to keep it running.

        PhysioDock is built to be an open and accessible platform for physiotherapists, students, and patients alike. Here you’ll find articles, measurement tools, exercise libraries, diagnostic resources, and professional materials – all completely free.

        Behind the scenes, however, there are hundreds of hours of work: research, writing, development, design, maintenance, testing, and updates. We do this because we believe in open knowledge and better health information.

        If you’d like to support our work and help us continue developing and improving PhysioDock, we truly appreciate everyone who:
        – subscribes to a PhysioDock+ membership
        – uses and recommends PhysioDock in their work or studies
        – shares PhysioDock with others

        Every contribution makes a difference – and helps us keep the platform open to everyone.
        Thank you for supporting PhysioDock!
