James O'Brien

Hi, I've had lower back pain for a week, can barely bend down. Any chance you can see me soon?

21:14

Hi James, sorry to hear that. We start with a 45-minute initial assessment with the physio: examination plus first treatment. It's €60.

21:14

I have 9:30 or 19:00 tomorrow. Would either work?

21:15

19:00 please. Do you take Laya? And how much are follow-up sessions?

21:16

Yes, we're registered with Laya, you claim the receipt back. Follow-ups are €50, or a 5-session pack for €225 and 10 for €420. To confirm tomorrow we take a €15 deposit, deducted from the price:

The problem

While you treat, appointment requests pile up on WhatsApp

Your hands are busy and your phone is across the room. Patients in pain want an appointment now: if you don't reply, they book somewhere else.

  • Messages waiting for hours because you're with a patient
  • No-shows that leave empty slots
  • Session packs that run out and nobody offers a renewal
  • Time lost explaining prices and insurance again and again

  • Triage before the visit

    Asks the reason, where it hurts, any recent surgery and insurance, and notes it for you. It never diagnoses.

  • Health insurance

    Explains which insurers you work with and what the patient needs, based on what you set up.

    Sends appointments and patients to your practice software via API and webhooks or through n8n, Make or Zapier.

Plain and simple: what a WhatsApp chatbot for physiotherapy is

It's an assistant that handles your clinic's WhatsApp. It knows your treatments, prices, packs, insurers and opening hours because you train it with your website, your Google profile or the Assistant.

It takes care of admin: handles physio appointment requests on WhatsApp, books the initial assessment, takes the deposit or session pack payment, sends an appointment reminder 24 hours before and follows up. It doesn't diagnose, prescribe exercises or replace the physiotherapist.

If a patient describes symptoms that need clinical judgement, has an emergency or asks for a person, it hands the conversation to your team with the full history. In a medical emergency it tells them to call 112.

Frequently asked questions

How much does it cost?

From €49/month on the Starter plan (1 business, 2 agents and 2,000 messages). Pay yearly and get 20% off.

Is there a free trial?

Yes, 7 days free with no card. No lock-in.

Can I use my clinic's current WhatsApp number?

Yes. Connect it by scanning a QR code in 2 minutes or through the official Meta API.

Does the agent give medical advice?

No. It doesn't diagnose or prescribe. It records the reason for the visit, books the appointment and, if something needs clinical judgement or it doesn't know the answer, hands the conversation to someone on your team with the full history.

Can a chatbot book appointments at my physiotherapy clinic?

Yes. It checks real free slots in your diary (built-in or synced with Google Calendar), books by physio and room, takes a deposit if you ask for one and notes the reason for the visit. Anything clinical goes to your team.

How can I reduce no-shows with WhatsApp reminders?

The agent sends a WhatsApp reminder 24 hours before each appointment and can take a deposit at booking via Stripe, PayPal or Redsys. If the patient can't make it, it helps them rebook so the slot is freed for someone else.

Does it know which insurers I accept?

Yes, if you tell it. It explains which insurers you work with and what the patient needs. It doesn't check cover in insurers' systems.

Does it integrate with my practice software?

You can send appointments, patients and payments via the public API and webhooks, or through n8n, Make or Zapier. We don't claim native integrations with every tool.

Is it GDPR compliant?

Yes. Data is processed under GDPR and hosted in Europe. The agent doesn't collect medical history in the chat and hands sensitive topics to a person. We're a Spanish company based in Granada with human support.

Can it sell session packs on WhatsApp?

Yes. It explains the packs you set up, sends the payment link in the chat via Stripe, PayPal or Redsys and lets the patient know when only a few sessions are left so they can renew.
