Watch out for the physio robots! - Guardian piece.

I can see a good role for the use of the internet/apps for physio, because my unrelenting experience of physio has been to be given a bunch of exercises that I can't remember and can't make enough notes on, when a video would be spectacularly useful and the obvious way to impart the info.

Also, hopefully an app would be less likely to parrot 'There's nothing to stop you getting better/Here is an unfeasible number of reps to do'.
