Exercise Programme Player (EPP) Software

DESKTHERAPY Exercise Programme Player (EPP) is the desktop application component of the DESKTHERAPY service. This simple, easy-to-use software manages the download and playback of desk exercise videos selected for each user. DESKTHERAPY EPP uses ‘exercise alerts’ to remind users to repeat the exercises regularly to improve their effectiveness.

DESKTHERAPY EPP Top 5 Features

The following features illustrate how DESKTHERAPY EPP provides simple management of your DESKTHERAPY Personal Edition Subscription.

#1. Personal Exercise Video Library

After completing your health questionnaire, DESKTHERAPY EPP will download a library of exercise videos especially selected for you based on the answers you provided. You can manage this list and as you update your information at www.desktherapy.com, providing updated information on your health, your library of videos will be updated. You can check for these updates and begin downloading new videos selected for you directly from DESKTHERAPY EPP.

#2. Automated Alerts

DESKTHERAPY EPP will alert you at regular intervals throughout the day. The software runs minimised in your system tray and will present itself in the foreground when it is time for you to take a micro-break to reconnect with your body through a series of simple, beneficial exercises.

#3. Video Playlist

Each time DESKTHERAPY EPP alerts you, a selection of videos will be pulled from your exercise video library for you to watch and participate in. If you choose to watch more than one video at a time your selection of videos will be queued up sequentially. You can pause, seek within a video, skip to the next exercise and block videos you decide you don't like or ones that your health practitioner advises against. Accompanying each video is a text description with further instructions on how to make best use of the desk exercise demonstrated.

#4. Comprehensive Alert Settings

Because we understand that our service needs to fit around you and the hours at which you are at your desk, DESKTHERAPY EPP has been designed to allow you complete control over when you would like to be reminded to exercise. You can choose the day, the time range within each day, and the intervals between which alerts appear. You can also choose the number of video exercises that are added at random to the playlist from your personal exercise video library.

#5. Unobtrusive Operation

DESKTHERAPY EPP has been designed to be as unobtrusive as possible. The application is set to run when your computer first starts up and immediately minimises to the system tray leaving you free to operate your computer as normal. Desk Exercise videos are downloaded in the background using the sotware and not through a web browser and can be cancelled and restarted at any time. Furthermore, when DESKTHERAPY EPP alerts you it is time to exercise, you have a choice whether to participate right away or, if you're busy at that moment, ask the software to remind you in a few minutes.
