About Us

our mission

Everyday Better

MyStones turns athlete health and performance data into actionable insights, preventing injuries and strengthening collaboration between athletes, coaches, and physiotherapists.

our story

An Essential Tool

MyStones was created by athletes: for athletes, out of our personal experience of daily training. We saw how easily data gets lost, how feedback stays fragmented, and how athletes often miss the bigger picture of their own health.

That's why we built MyStones: to centralize progress, prevent overload, and connect coaches, physiotherapists, and athletes around what matters most: the person behind the performance.

Amateurs or elites: we accompany your growth as athletes.
