""No family, no friends, just a fresh start," she told TechCrunch. A sufferer of chronic back pain, she first started working in physiotherapy, thinking it was helping make a difference in the lives of others. Yet the traditional physiotherapy model never quite lit a spark in her. She moved to interventional cardiology but only became more disillusionedwith the physical rehab model with "its localized, reactive, and volume-based nature," she said."
"Meanwhile, in her spare time, she became a content creator, sharing her perspective online about "proactive" and "holistic" ways people can get rid of pain. That took on a life of its own. She now has more than 130,000 followers on Instagram, a company called Athletic Rebuild, which provides rehab and performance coaching for athletes, and now, a platform called Rebuildr, a HIPAA-compliant and mentorship app to help rehab professionals run their own businesses online, set to launch early next year."
Tayla Cannon moved from Australia to the U.S. in 2023 for a job in a city she had not seen. She experienced chronic back pain and initially worked in physiotherapy, then interventional cardiology, becoming disillusioned with reactive, localized, volume-based rehab models. She began creating online content promoting proactive, holistic pain strategies and grew a large Instagram audience. She founded Athletic Rebuild for athlete rehab and performance coaching and is launching Rebuildr, a HIPAA-compliant mentorship app for rehab professionals. Slow Ventures invested $1.1 million from its Creator Fund seed round to support her platform.
