Vivira Health Lab GmbH is a digital health company that develops and markets digital health applications in the field of musculoskeletal disorders. The aim is to support people with musculoskeletal conditions in reducing pain and restoring physical functionality through digital therapy programs. The company, headquartered in Berlin, was founded in 2015 by Dr. Philip Heimann and rehabilitation clinic operators Dr. Petra Becker (Dr. Becker Klinikgruppe, Cologne) and Fabian Blank (formerly Meduna Klinikverbund, Bad Bertrich). The Medical Board of Vivira Health Lab GmbH is led by Dr. Markus Klingenberg (Beta Klinik, Bonn). The company’s first product, Vivira, is the most prescribed prescription app for back pain. It offers guideline-based movement therapy designed to reduce pain using functional training principles. Vivira is a CE-marked medical device and has been permanently listed by the Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices (BfArM) as a Digital Health Application (DiGA) in the directory of reimbursable products. This makes the company the first DiGA manufacturer in Germany to successfully achieve the crucial triad of: proof of medical benefit as a BfArM-listed DiGA, confirmation of patient safety through ISO 13485 certification, and verification of data protection through ISO 27001 certification.
