Exercise, rest, and set pacing

Free Physical Therapy Timer

Use a physical therapy timer for exercise sets, rest periods, mobility work, home programs, guided sessions, and clinic routines. Run simple intervals, or create an XTimer room when a therapist, trainer, or group needs shared timing.

Built for this job

Exercise and rest periods stay visible during guided routines.

Home programs can be paced without constantly checking a phone clock.

XTimer rooms support shared physical therapy timers for remote guidance and group sessions.
