Start your journey to living pain free with Sword, digital physical therapy for back, joint and muscle pain that you can do from the comfort of your home or anywhere.
Sword matches you with a physical therapist who learns about you over a video call and designs a customized program. You’ll then get a Digital Therapist© tablet to track your exercise progress, give feedback and help correct your form in real-time. Your physical therapist supports you every step of the way and even adjusts the program as your needs change, so you get better, faster.
Best of all, with Sword no referral is needed, and there’s no copay so it’s free to eligible members as part of your Alera Group medical plan benefits (for Surest, Blue Cross Blue Shield and UMR plan members in 2024 and for Surest, Blue Cross Blue Shield and UnitedHealthcare (UHC) plan members in 2025).

Bloom Digital Pelvic Therapy
Bloom is an innovative digital pelvic therapy solution. It was developed by Sword under the belief that physical location should never limit access to clinical-grade care. Bloom pairs members with Pelvic Health Specialists, all of whom have Doctor of Physical Therapy degrees. After a virtual consultation, the Specialist monitors biofeedback from a pod and mobile app to customize pelvic exercise programs while providing ongoing 1-1 guidance, support and insights.
Bloom addresses pelvic dysfunctions covering all stages of life including pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause. It is a comprehensive, mind-body program connecting women and individuals with vaginal anatomy to the next generation of pelvic-health care from the comfort, convenience, and privacy of home.
