You probably know somebody with constant back pain. Or maybe migraine headaches, knee pain, neck pain, or fibromyalgia. You may even have one of these conditions yourself. That wouldn’t be surprising, considering there are an estimated 100 million American adults who suffer from some form of chronic pain. Curable is a tech startup on a mission to provide widespread access to safe and effective chronic pain therapy. Over the past decade, researchers all over the world have continued to present evidence that our brains play a major role in the persistence of physical pain, that our brains are highly adaptable, and that our brains can actually learn how to decrease or altogether stop the feeling of pain. Curable makes a software app that bottles up all of this research and delivers a therapy program to people with chronic pain. As one of our users puts it, “It’s like physical therapy for your brain.”
