betterhood has launched The Physio Edge, a certification programme for early-career physiotherapists aimed at bridging the gap between academic training and clinical practice.
Since its launch, betterhood claims to have served more than 2 lacs customers and published 1,500 pieces of educational content across platforms covering posture, pain prevention, movement and recovery.
According to market research cited by the company, these categories represent a market of around Rs 20,000 crore in India and are growing at a low to mid-teens rate.
