Great teacher
This train taught me how to truly do all the exercises and stretches, the Doc has a great talent for explaining and showing. I would recommend this course to everyone.

Dedicated to reversing the causes of lower back pain, Core Balance Training is an online program that uses core activation and movement retraining to help people improve posture and escape the back pain cycle. Students first learn how to activate the spinal support muscles of their deep core by connecting to their 'Core Anchors', then how to apply that connection to movement. Students are guided through a system of core-based movement, resulting in a healthy core connection and supported spine in activities of daily life.Core Balance Training was founded in 2016 by Dr. Ryan Peebles, a Doctor of Physical Therapy who has committed over 20 years to better understanding and reversing the root causes of chronic lower back pain. After overcoming his personal struggles with back problems, Dr. Ryan now guides others to get out of pain.The 12-week program can be completed by all ages and fitness levels. It begins with simple core-based movements, progressing to functional and complex movements over a 3 month period. All movements become healthy for the spine, allowing students to return to higher level activities, such as fitness and sport without pain. Other outcomes are improved function and reduced or eliminated lower back pain. Because the solution focuses on education and movement retraining, the results of Core Balance Training are typically lifelong.

The body dynamics and strengthening exercises are spot on however, if you have an interruption in your ability to participate in the daily modules (travel, illness, injury, other life events...), there is no way to pause the training and or payments to restart where you left off. You just keep paying until you are able to restart... And if you decide to suspend/stop payments to heal and catch up, you lose access to all the training modules you completed and paid for... Ummm, that is not what I'd call a fair practice. I'm very disappointed and would have loved to continue but I'm not paying for services/products already purchased.
Response from Core Balance TrainingMar 31, 2025
Hi Lynn, Thank you for sharing your feedback. My name is Austie, and I am the Director of Operations at Core Balance Training. I wanted to address your concerns and clarify some important details regarding your account. Upon reviewing our records, I see that on February 7, you emailed us explaining that you had been ill and unable to participate in the training. Our student advocate responded promptly, expressing compassion for your situation and offering to cancel your upcoming renewal to avoid further charges. Unfortunately, we did not receive a response from you. Subsequently, we received another email from you expressing dissatisfaction with being charged while unable to participate. In response, our student advocate offered to credit you for one month free of charge to make up for the payment you made and the time you were unable to participate. We understand that interruptions can happen due to illness, travel, injury, or other life events, and our program is designed to accommodate such situations. As a membership-based service, we do require an active membership to access the program and the associated resources, such as live Q&A sessions with Dr. Ryan. However, if you're unable to participate, you can cancel payments and pause your training. When you're ready to resume, you can pick up where you left off. This information was shared with you in several emails to ensure clarity on how our program works. In our last email to you, we informed you that your membership was set to cancel on March 18th to avoid any further payments. We also mentioned that you could reach out to us whenever you’d like us to add the complimentary month to your account. Unfortunately, we did not receive a response until we saw this review, followed by a message in our inbox stating that you were unable to access the training. We are more than happy to honor our offer and provide you with the free month as promised, but we feel that this review does not accurately reflect the situation. We work hard to maintain transparency and provide excellent service to our members, and we regret that your experience did not meet your expectations. We value your membership and are always open to discussing how we can assist you moving forward. Best regards, Austie with CBT

Great program and attention to detail!

The program offers a three-month, step-by-step training of re-learning how to strengthen and use your core muscles in a healthy, beneficial way. Not only does the program deliver as promised, but it lays the foundation for continued improvement, or to maintain the gains made. It is NOT an instant cure, but those are almost always temporary. This creates a structure to follow, or to revisit, building your personal knowledge-base of what works best for you. I also found the support from the staff during the program to be timely, personal, and effective. I say this not as someone whose issues are gone, but rather someone who now feels equipped to progress toward a healthier, sustainable back, which then allows me to enjoy my active lifestyle.

Dr. Ryan has a gift for explaining subtle yet important details. His "perfect bridge" and related exercises required numerous baby steps to achieve, each building on the last, seamlessly. I have grade 2 spondylolisthesis at s1/l5. osteoarthritis throughout my spine and pelvis, and incredibly tight hip flexors. My chronic middle back pain, which has been plaguing me for 5+ years, went away within 2 weeks. My SI joint and hip joint pain gradually improved with each passing week. My hip flexor pain mostly resolved by week 7. My spondylolisthesis pain, which was debilitating, improved some, but particularly improved when walking or standing. I'm convinced it can improve more as I keep exercising. Before CBT, I tried PT, muscle relaxers, massage, and doing it on my own by watching various free YouTube videos. Nothing helped because nothing was addressing the complex set of problems underlying the pain. Dr Ryan has put an enormous amount of work into this program. Give it a try.

This is an honest program that does require an understanding that back health is a lifetime process. It will take you the full 3 months at $99 per month to get the full benefit, but in my opinion it's worth it. You cannot rush body awareness training and Dr. Ryan does a good job of telling that story and providing a program to guide you through your process. My only criticism really would just be that most of us do a lot of damage sitting at a desk all day long and I think there could be more focus on how to not undo the progress when at work.
Rolf
This program has absolutely helped me reduce my back pain while providing abundant friendly, personal support and useful information. Very well structured tutorial videos backed by a knowledgeable staff who answer your questions in a timely and thorough manner. I will be referencing their lessons and information on a regular basis as I move forward.

CBT is the most effective, comprehensive, cost-efficient therapy system I've ever experienced for back problems. My friends warned me "there's no substitute for a good (in-person) physical therapist", but they were wrong. I gave CBT a try and it over-delivered. Their guarantee made it risk-free. One drawback: their advertised 15 minutes/day applies to exercises only. The daily instructional videos take another 2-10 minutes; the emotional support offerings, Q&A sections, and interesting extra videos can take up a half hour or more on any given day. Finding the time to fully benefit from the total experience was a challenge, because I only planned for 15-20 minutes.
