I started experiencing major wrist and forearm pain whilst gaming, which is the one of the scariest most alarming thing to experience as someone who plays video games for a living full time.
Several of my peers immediately took this as an opportunity to recommend 1HP,
Dr. Matthew Hwu helped assess my pain, and provided a treatment plan that resolved all of my issues within 6 weeks.
During our consultations, he helped me truly understand the importance of physical heath, especially as a gamer, providing proper context as to why I was experiencing my issues in the first place, and what I could do to prevent them from reoccurring in the future. Since then, I've integrated healthier habits into my lifestyle and have benefitted immensely from them.

I'm johnqt I play for sentinels, I worked with Dr.Hwu about my wrist and knee discomfort and he's been very helpful about it with solutions and various checkups.
He also helped me with gym programs and in-person help since I was a beginner in that area.

After months of doctors that didn't know what to do with me, finally making some real progress working with Matthew Hwu and I've not only made progress in pain reduction but also learnt so much about posture and exercise in general! I might still have a bit to go until I'm 100% pain free but thanks to 1HP, I KNOW that I'll reach there. For the first time since I got my RSI, I have hope again. Can't recommend them enough!

I worked with Dr.Hwu, to treat pain in wrist, elbow and thumb.
I started working with 1HP April 2nd 2024, my injuries had progressed pretty badly therefore the healing journey was longer, but within a month or two id have days without any pain. I followed a strict healing plan even after i had stopped seeing Dr. Hwu and the pain lingered or changed over time, however Dr. Hwu was readily available and always keen to help me out whenever he could. Now exactly 4 months since I started seeing Dr. Hwu, adapting my healing routine and following his guidance im completely pain free.
Ive been able to reach my goals of participating in team practice for the whole day and being able to put in extra work after hand.
The best thing about 1HP is the fact that they are there for you, any questions any random issues, DR. Hwu would always respond within a day or two.

1HP is on a whole other level when it comes to health and performance enhancement in esports. I have had countless successful physical therapy sessions with Elliot to relieve neck/back tension and improve mobility, worked closely with Daniel to improve my sleep habits and received a ton of game-changing advice regarding nutrition and supplements from Casey. It also needs to be stated that Carl is an amazing mental coach, and the breathing techniques he taught me I have now used for years.
I can confidently say that they have all made a huge difference for me. I can't recommend them enough.

It was hard to do the bare minimum day to day activities without feeling any sort of discomfort or pain. Thankfully Matt was able to provide me with all sorts of exercises and advice on how to treat my wrist to no longer having to deal with the pain at all.

Just wanted to say a couple things:
- Dr Mathew is a great, knowledgeable, friendly and well experienced physiotherapist.
- I came to him for some guidance on rehabbing my wrist tendinosis (APL/APB Tendinopathy). I had already been rehabbing myself but needed extra guidance to return to basline.
- He explained everything clearly and why its happening, accurately prescribed the correct rehab exercises with weight/reps and asked me to report back. We worked together and he was highly responsive to tailor the program more carefully to my recovery needs.
- Since then I have recovered and still continue to recover positively. I highly recommend him with any of your wrist injuries wether acute/late or anything. I'm sure he will be able to assist and help you on your path to recovery.
- Look no further, if you need a physio and are confused like how I was, get in touch!
Thanks Mathew

badeu
I'm badeu, a top osu! player who began experiencing RSI in my right hand inside of my thumb due to extensive gaming sessions without any breaks or stretching my hands. The reason I want to give my reference to Dr. Matthew Hwu and 1HP, is that it's very hard to believe that this service is so scarcely found. Especially when RSI is becoming more and more commonplace among gamers.
My RSI evolved from just being a problem with playing osu!, to other aspects of my life, and even to the point where in some cases I basically functioned with 1 hand for anything other than really simple tasks.
At this point I finally got in touch with Dr. Hwu after seeing another top osu! player (Sytho) who also had RSI and worked with him to have great results. I was losing hope around this time after trying numerous things, including having cortisone shots, but I am really glad I took this chance because now I have the ability to continue doing what I enjoy without the fear of setbacks or pain.
I'm now back to playing up to 6 hours a day after a month of working with Dr. Hwu and I couldn't recommend this service enough. Seriously, I couldn't believe how simple recovery was all along.

- Who are you / what are you working on?
My name is Kaan and I have been working on my shoulder and lower arm/s since May 17th
- What was your worst moment with your issue?
My shoulder by far, it got so bad I couldn't do anything, even the most simple thing without any pain.
- Who did you work with at 1HP and how did we help you?
The G.O.A.T. Dr Matthew Hwu. In my first appointment we talked about my issues and Dr Matt made me a pdf with everything I had to do and how to improve.
- What are you able to do now? And what led to that?
I'm not even fully done yet and my life has literally changed completely, I couldn't do anything anymore, including my favorite hobby, gaming. But now? I can live my life again without constant pain and play videogames again.
- What was the most important thing you learned from your experience with 1HP?
Consistency and believing in the process. Healing takes a long time but with consistency and a good mindset it will help so much, it is okay to have a flare up here and there, healing isn't a straight line up, it goes up and down at times but in the end it is always going up, even if it slow sometimes. Sticking to it.

Hello, my name is Jack, I was experiencing elbow and forearm pain (commonly called Tennis Elbow) along with shoulder and neck pain, I worked with Matt and he created a program for eight weeks that drastically made a difference compared to the previous PT I had. I am able to play CS consistently while before I couldn't play at all. The most important thing I learned was to be aware of my body, and that no injury is irrecoverable, and I am confident that farther down the line I will be able to play even longer.

I am a student that usually plays a ton of video games, and 1HP helped me get from not being able to play video games at all (for months) to playing completely unrestricted with the help of Dr. Hwu (Matt). To be honest, I wasn’t sure about 1HP at first, but the program of rest, medications, and bracing which my previous doctor prescribed wasn’t working. My previous doctor told me after enough rest I would be able to ease back in into gaming, however, when I tried to ease back into playing I couldn’t make it 15 minutes before the pain would start coming back. I was really concerned. That’s when I decided to seek help from 1HP. Thankfully Dr. Hwu helped me get a better understanding of why I was experiencing pain and how I could fix it with exercises targeting the flexor tendons in my wrists. It took some time because my wrists were so deconditioned, but after following the exercises Dr. Hwu prescribed (as well as Dr. Hwu helping me understand pain science better), I gradually was able to play again. After that I was able to slowly add more and more hours of play until I was back to normal. I can now play as much as I want without issues. My local doctor honestly had no clue what I had or how to help me recover, but for Dr. Hwu it was a very straightforward case. Without 1HP, I would probably still be dealing with tendonitis issues. Dr. Hwu is very passionate about his work, genuinely cares about his patients, and keeps up on RSI research. I talked a lot with him about tendonitis/tendinopathy research as well as pain science and he was able to explain a lot to me that was really important to my recovery. Because of what I’ve learned, I’m going to continue doing my exercises at least 3x a week to maintain good wrist health and start doing more exercise in general. If you’ve been having similar issues, seriously reach out to 1HP.

I bought the Troubleshooter and got access to the private channel 65 days ago and I just wanted to come back to say thanks to your work, my wrists and forearms have recovered back to normal and I’d say it only took 3 weeks or so to get here. So again HUGE THANK YOU!!
Charlie Renouf
I found out about 1HP after dealing with finger/hand/forearm pain for 4.5 years. Some of my worst moments were trying to carry out daily tasks after gaming for hours a day with no breaks or proper preparation. I worked closely with Dr. Hwu for a handful of months as he coached me through the mental and physical hurdles I needed to overcome. Gradually progressing weighted exercises as well as loading my brain with a more positive outlook on healing and managing pain/stress. One of my biggest takeaways from working with Dr. Hwu was learning just how close the mental and physical aspects of pain are. That was very important to my specific case. Stress is an overwhelmingly large portion of why I feel the physical pain that I do, and learning to understand and have more control over that is something I couldn't have done without the teachings of Dr. Matt and the 1HP crew.

Benjamin
I'm a software developer and a pc gamer that has struggled with ulnar sided forearm/wrist pain for years.
The pain was pretty consistent to the point that I was basically only using my hand during work and even then the pain would very often increase to a 3-4.
I worked with Matt and he educated me about pain science, and helped me finally increase the strength and stamina of my arm, making huge progress towards finally fixing it.
I'm able to basically work without pain and enjoy gaming again.
The most important thing I learned was that pain isn't directly tied to damage, which allowed me to actually make progress on strengthening my muscles and tendons.

As a radiologist dealing with a stubborn and disabling ECU tendinopathy from repetitive strain for a year, I turned to 1HP for help. In about eight weeks, I was already 80% better, and within a couple of months, my symptoms were completely resolved. It's made a huge difference to my quality of life and my ability to work comfortably and has saved my career. Highly recommend them!

I'm a clinical psychologist that had pain in my left wrist that was directly related to my gaming but it got so bad that I couldn't lift small objects, use my left hand to type at work and even small things like grabbing a bottle of water were painful. I reached out to 1HP to help and with every week things were improving.
Especially after 3-4 weeks I noticed my biggest change in endurance. After 6 weeks I already can do way more than I was able to do in the first place (gaming) and am happy that I now know how I can continue to stay pain free and even do more than I was before

I'm a film editor. I spend most days working on the computer. Most of my hobbies are on the computer as well. I have had problems with my hands and wrists on and off for almost a decade. I was experiencing pain and fatigue in both hands. It got to the point that I was worried I would need to change careers. I reached out to 1HP and made an appointment. It has definitely been a journey, but after learning more about pain and why I was experiencing + doing the prescribed physical therapy, I am able to work all day again with minimal problems. I believe it won't be long before I experience no pain or fatigue at all. The road ahead looks clear. I think what I appreciate most is the fact that whatever comes my way now I am much better equipped to handle those problems. Two thumbs up!

The 1HP team are by far the most competent physical therapists that I have ever worked with. They employ a modern, evidence based approach in their treatment of repetitive strain injuries/tendonopathy.
My 1HP therapist, Dr Hwu, showed true determination in helping me recover and did everything he could to help me. I learned a lot about pain science, recovery, and my own self-imposed limitations through working with him.

I've been to many physiotherapists because of RSI in my shoulders and hands from playing guitar and being a computer science major.

Before I met Dr. Mathew Hwu, I was in a place of despair. I genuinely had no clue how to move forward in my life. I was in pain every second I was awake, I spent hours watching videos, working with other specialists and attempting to figure out solves on my own.
After working with him, and only 5-6 video calls over 4 months, I have fully gotten past Thoracic Outlet Syndrome haunting me, yes I still do Physical therapy to upkeep a state of health, however I am never in pain!
I would recommend at least a consultation with Dr. Mathew Hwu for anyone struggling with TOS. Full stop, he is the best I have ever worked with in his field.

I’ve sought out the services of 1HP multiple times and each time I come out of my session feeling like a million bucks.
I have worked in the esports industry for over 10 years now and have seen so many individuals from our space suffer from a variety of physical issues as a result of the hours upon hours of training and preparation and a players timeframe of peak performance can be drastically reduced because of a lack of nutritional knowledge and fitness education as well as proper stretching and diet. 1HP has helped me understand how important it is and how everything is cyclical.
I’m a firm believer in what 1HP does and their mission to help all sorts of people understand how to live a healthy and productive lifestyle for gamers, creators, streamers, broadcast talent, and pro players!

I'm an actor and writer who's been suffering from thumb pain for 3 years and finger pain for 2. The pain has made it difficult to use my phone, type, write, game, and perform other simple household tasks.
I wish I had discovered Dr. Smithson and 1hp years ago!
This area of medicine is full of confusion and misinformation. I've seen over 30 different kinds of medical professionals - doctors, specialists, massage therapists, physical therapists, and acupuncturists - over the years. There have been so many negative interactions where my pain was dismissed, misdiagnosed, or ineffectively treated.
Only 2 folks have really understood my condition and helped me in a meaningful way: Dr. Smithson is one of them!
Dr. Smithson's treatment course of stretching, strengthening, endurance exercises, and manual therapy have been just what I needed.
I am only a month in to our treatment course, but my thumbs are already stronger and more pain-free than they've been in over 3 years. I am writing, typing, gaming, and using my cell phone again with much less pain and much more strength.
I don't expect miracles, but I am more optimistic about my recovery than I have been in years.
I enthusiastically recommend Dr. Smithson and 1hp!

this is just some of the stuff I bought over the last couple of years to get rid of wrist, shoulder, and finger pain. Been working with the 1HP troubleshooter for about 5 weeks now and don't feel the need to keep this pile of braces and stuff. Going to happily give away or throw away most of it! I'll be honest, I'm not a hardcore gamer, but I do spend more than enough time at my desk and play Counter-strike 2 a few hours per week. Doing the 1HP exercises and stretches, as well as just taking their posture advice has reduced my pain and discomfort significantly. You don't need to be a pro gamer to take good advice from people who understand what really causes pain that can extend into other parts of your life.

Tyler Cash
Vascular Access Nurse
Between lots of gaming and piano playing, I developed tendonitis in both wrists. I got put on leave at work when I began struggling to grip the things I needed to use to do my job. My wrists hurt so bad I could hardly tie my shoes, let alone game.
After being put on leave, I began bracing and resting my wrists like my doctor told me to. After 2 weeks, my wrists not only hurt even worse than before, but they were now very immobile, so I decided to start seeing a local hand therapist. He helped me get some mobility back, but after a month of work, my wrist pain and function wasn't really getting much better. I still couldn't work, game, or play piano, and I was beginning to feel pretty hopeless 6 weeks after being placed on leave from work.
While browsing Reddit, looking for answers on how to fix my persistent wrist pain, I came across posts from the 1-HP team. Long story short, I got the Wrist Pain Troubleshooter and ran it for every area of pain I was having. Within 1 week I was gaming again. Within 2 weeks my nerve pain and numbness was mostly resolved. By week 3 I could start reintroducing piano playing, and now, at week 4, I can do a 50 pull up workout and am cleared to go back to work again. I still have a bit to go to get back to 100%, but its been night and day difference over the course of 4 weeks.
MASSIVE thanks to the 1-HP team. Before I found you guys I was starting to feel like my hands were going to be out of commission for a long time, but your system works!

Gavin Michael Harris
My name is Gavin Michael Harris and I had dequervains tendonitis in my left wrist when I started 1 HP’s Troubleshooter program. Elliot Smithson was a major help, he was able to diagnose the problem and provided me with the program and clear instructions on how to use it. The tendonitis came about as I was in a show as a musician. I play guitar and it became very painful to play throughout the show’s run. It also prevented me from doing other activities that I loved doing like basketball and volleyball. As I started doing the exercises, I found it easier to play with much less pain. Now, I rarely think about my wrist pain and keep up with the exercise to help prevent future injuries. The best thing about 1HP is there clear instruction and the proven formula that helped me to keep up with the exercises even when it didn’t feel like my wrist was improving. I am very happy to report that I feel very confident using my wrist for playing guitar and all the other activities I’ve missed.

Hi, I'm Anon. I recently recovered from RSI in both of my arms and hands. Before I started coaching with 1HP, I went to multiple doctors to try and fix my issue. I received random diagnoses and advice that didn't help. I was told to rest, brace, and use pain killers but none of these "solutions" led to any progress.
After seeing no progress working with my doctors, I started doing research myself and found 1HP. I started working with Dr. Hwu and immediately knew that I was in the right hands. He explained my problem and had confidence that I could make a full recovery. I started performing endurance exercises, stretches, and nerve glides. Over time, I was able to return to work with no restrictions.
The most important thing I learned from my experience with 1HP is that endurance training is essential for overcoming RSI. There are other things that can help, but if you aren't doing the correct endurance exercises, your body won't be able to handle the demands placed on it.
Overall, I'm beyond grateful for my experience with 1HP and would recommend them to anyone facing hand, wrist, or arm pain.

Urban Kristan
My name is Urban. I'm a programmer and an amateur violinist. For years, I had been dealing with pain in my hands (between the middle and ring fingers and going up the finger) as well as in my shoulders. I experienced pain, tingling, and a lack of mobility. I had to be increasingly careful with how much time I spent on the computer and how much I practiced violin.
Dr. Hwu worked with me for about 10 weeks. The approach was completely different from what I’d experienced with other doctors and therapists. He asked more specific questions, was much more invested in the process, and made sure I clearly understood his diagnosis and the reasoning behind the treatment.
After consistently doing the exercises twice a day and adjusting the difficulty as needed, the flare-ups have become much rarer and above all almost unobstructive. I expect things to continue improving, as they have been, as long as I stick with the routine.
I'm very grateful to have found 1hp!

I'm a desk worker with thoracic outlet syndrome and some problems with my knees due to sitting. I just regret that I did not have an appointment with Dr Hwu earlier and saved the time shifting through different programs. I was also misdiagnosed by a hand physiotherapist and orthopedic doctor. By conditions improved about 90% after 4-5 consultations with Dr Hwu. He's knowledgable and receptive to feedback. I would recommend you to work with him!
Ya
I am Ya, a Ukrainian software developer and gamer based in Vancouver. I was unable to work or game due to muscle, tendon, and joint pain in both hands for three years, starting in 2022.
But now, I’m happier than ever because, with the help of Dr. Matthew Hwu, I achieved full remission in just under three months.
I felt confident in the treatment because Dr. Hwu clearly knew what he was doing and understood what was happening. I appreciated being able to ask all the questions I had. Initially, I didn’t believe full recovery was possible, but it ended up working out exactly as Dr. Matthew predicted.
I can now develop software and game without limits, just as I did before 2022. I am beyond grateful for the support, guidance, and expertise of the 1HP experts.
The best part for me was finally finding someone who truly understands RSI in computer professionals.

Oliver
I had been suffering for years from pain and tightness in my neck, shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand. I saw multiple doctors and physical therapists, and tried exercises that I found on the internet, but nothing seemed to work—until I started working with Dr. Hwu. I had reached a point where even getting through the work day was a struggle, and I couldn't enjoy my weekends playing games because of the pain. The best part of working with Dr. Hwu was how thorough the support was. He took into account every detail, from my sleeping posture to my posture while working at the computer and gaming, as well as making sure my exercise form was spot on. That level of attention made me feel confident that I was on the right path to recovery. Thanks to Dr. Hwu's program, I'm finally on the right track and I feel like I'm almost back to my normal self.
