Our motive is to empower people to take control of their knee pain and start living a life without limits.
About Us
Pain relief that moves you
Unlike temporary treatments for knee pain, our FDA-cleared therapy actively strengthens the quad muscles to reduce pressure on the joint for lasting relief.
Mobility that lasts
By treating a primary root cause of knee pain – not just masking it – Motive gives everyone the power to regain mobility, improve function, and get back to an active life.
Our Mission
Born in medicine, Motive Health relaunched as a consumer brand driven by the desire to offer better access to our clinically proven, high-quality care solutions. Our mission is to provide game-changing FDA-cleared products to give everyone the power to stop knee pain and take control of their health and wellness.
The Genesis of Motive
2014
Inspired by the idea of treating every patient like a professional athlete, Motive founder Dr. Coleman and a group of esteemed engineers transformed neuromuscular electrical stimulation to be comfortable, home-based, effective muscle strengthening therapy.
