PelvicPath vs HEP2go: builder or follow through

HEP2go is for the therapist who wants to assemble a clear exercise handout in a couple of minutes, while PelvicPath is for the therapist who wants to know what happened to that handout over the next fourteen days.

The short answer

HEP2go is a fast program builder and for many pelvic therapists it is the first tool they ever used. If your only problem is producing a clear handout for patients who reliably do their program, a builder is enough and nothing here should change your mind. PelvicPath starts after the handout. It delivers the program day by day, records completions and symptom flags, and gives you a between visit summary. If your postpartum patients drift by week two, the gap you are trying to close is follow through, not handout quality.

PelvicPath and HEP2go side by side

Each row compares one part of the pelvic home program job: who writes the program, what the patient sees on her phone, what comes back to you between visits, how it sits beside your documentation, and what it costs per therapist each month.
What you are decidingPelvicPathHEP2go
Core jobKeep a pelvic home program running between visits and report back what actually got done.Assemble an exercise handout quickly from a general rehabilitation catalog.
What the patient receivesA short daily list on her phone with a check off and a place to flag a symptom.A prescribed exercise set to view or print, in the shape a builder produces.
What comes back to youDaily completions, symptom flags and a between visit summary for each patient.Built around handing the program out rather than reporting on what followed.
Pelvic contentDown training, quick flicks, dilator progressions, breathing and bladder retraining.A general rehabilitation catalog covering many regions, with pelvic work among them.
Program length disciplineTemplates stay short because three items done beats nine items ignored.Length is entirely up to whoever is building the handout that day.
Who it suitsA pelvic clinic whose main leak is adherence in the fortnight between visits.A therapist who mainly needs a fast, flexible handout builder for a mixed list.
Price shapeFlat monthly by therapist count: Solo Therapist $45, Two Therapist $95, Clinic $189.Positioned as a low overhead builder; check their current terms directly.

On the right is the kind of tool HEP2go is and the job it is shaped around, rather than a list of what it includes at any given price. Products change, so check the current details with them before you decide. PelvicPath is published by MLJ, SASU and this page is written by Jimenez Julien.

Choose PelvicPath when

  • If your postpartum patients go quiet between week two and the next visit, the log tells you before she does.
  • When visits sit two or three weeks apart and nobody can honestly reconstruct a fortnight from memory.
  • If you want a flag on pain with penetration to reach you the day it happens rather than at the next appointment.
  • When you need something to paste into a progress note showing what changed between visits, the summary is already written.

Choose HEP2go when

  • If you mostly need a printable handout for a one visit consultation with no follow up loop, a builder does that with less setup.
  • If pelvic patients are a small slice of a general orthopedic caseload, a broad builder covers more of your week.
  • If you are not ready to ask patients to log anything daily, adding a tracking layer will only add friction you have to manage.

Handout quality is not the same problem as follow through

A well built handout solves comprehension. It tells the patient what a quick flick is, how long to hold, and what position to start in. That matters, and a good builder does it well. It does not tell you whether she did any of it on the four days her baby had a cold.

Follow through is a different problem with different causes: the program was too long, the dose was never said out loud, nothing anchored it to an existing routine, and no one checked in during the first week. Those are design and process failures, and no catalog size fixes them.

What a daily log changes about your next visit

With a log in front of you, the first ninety seconds of a pelvic visit change completely. You already know the pattern of her fortnight, so you spend the time on the thing she came for: the leaking on the second mile, the pressure by evening, the return to lifting she keeps asking about.

It also changes what you progress. Progressing a program the patient never actually performed is how a plan of care ends at visit six. When you can see that she did five of fourteen days, the right move is usually to shorten, not to advance, and you can say that with evidence instead of instinct.

Asking a patient to log without making it a chore

Logging works when the ask is tiny. Three items, one tap each, at a time of day she picked herself. A postpartum patient holding a baby in one arm will not open an app, find a program and type a note, and expecting her to is the same design mistake as a nine exercise program.

Tell her plainly what the log is for: so you can adjust the program without waiting two weeks, and so a bad night gets a phone call rather than a lecture. Patients log when they believe someone reads it, and stop when the check off disappears into nothing.

Questions people ask before they choose

Will my patients actually log every day?

Not all of them, and partial logging is still far more information than a memory at the start of a visit. Programs kept to three items with a named time of day log best. A patient who records five of fourteen days has told you something real about her week.

Can I keep my current builder and add PelvicPath?

Yes, and some therapists do exactly that for a while. Just make sure each pelvic patient receives one program from one place. Two versions of the same list is the fastest way to lose the habit you are trying to build.

Does the patient need to download an app?

No. The program opens in her phone browser from a link, which matters for a postpartum patient with one free hand. Any setup ritual done alone at home is where adherence tends to die before it starts.
