Pain Coach was built by Lachlan Townend, a pain-trained physiotherapist with lived experience. He built Pain Coach to close the gap between the reality that chronic pain is complex and what patients want: simple, actionable solutions.
Pain is biopsychosocial; what matters for the patient in front of you? Pain Coach tracks five factors with established correlations to chronic pain.
- Exercise
- Sleep
- Psychological wellbeing
- Nutrition

Chronic pain tracking for your patients — insights for you.
Pain Coach is the chronic pain app built for Australian clinicians and their patients. Your patient logs pain alongside sleep, exercise, nutrition, psychological wellbeing, and social connection in under two minutes a day, and the patterns surface on your dashboard to guide treatment.
I've been using the Pain Coach app for a couple of months. It's really easy to use, and the information I gain from it really helps me to focus my attention on the areas that matter… I think it's well worth investing in.
In my 5 years of having persistent pain it has sometimes been a lonely, frustrating and confusing journey. Therefore I'm very thankful that an app like this has been developed.
Are you ready to turn complex chronic pain into simple habit targets?
