OrthoCare / mGain Physical Therapy App

Role: Product Manager • Team: 4 people • Timeline: ~3 months • Tools: Figma

As product manager on a multidisciplinary team, I defined the vision, features, timeline and product specs, assigned tasks, ran testing and held us to our deadlines for a mobile app experience that reimagined physical therapy as a more engaging, motivating, and user-friendly process for adults recovering from injury or surgery. The goal was to improve adherence to PT routines by reducing repetition fatigue and introducing progress tracking, gamified exercise flows, and clear instructional support.

Through user research and persona development, we identified that adults aged 40–70 often struggle with consistency due to slow visible progress, lack of immediate feedback, and unclear exercise guidance. Based on these insights, we designed a solution centered around daily engagement loops, progress milestones, tutorial flows, and an interactive music-based therapy game experience.

The final prototype included:

• a dashboard-based home experience

• progress tracking and streaks

• video tutorials for device setup and gameplay

• a music-driven rehabilitation game (“Jam Sesh”)

• customizable DJ mode interactions

• post-session save, share, and progress review flows

This project strengthened my ability to turn user research into a clear product plan, keep a team on schedule, and translate user pain points into intuitive mobile experiences that support both emotional motivation and measurable recovery goals.
