I was so excited to try this…but was hesitant with the cost and did mention that but after listening to some of the information… I thought I would give it a try. I found the app to be very confusing… I sent messages explaining what happened and received messages that dismissed my experience…. First I made a password and when I input it… it kept saying I had the wrong one.. I wasn’t able to see the original one to see if I had made a mistake..so I sent a message….I finally figured that out before a return message. Then I couldn’t get out of the comments…I guess you are supposed to comment every time… but you are included with other comments… I just was having a really hard time navigating and I let them know. When you are in pain and you are trying to get some relief and the technology isn’t easy for you. Well it is frustrating.. I had a learning curve and I was in pain…. I just wanted it to be user friendly…. I was pretty shocked to get an email from them saying they weren’t keeping me as a client…. Can you imagine… making a decision to do a program and they fire you…. Yikes…Do not use this on your phone if you are older because there is tons of writing as opposed to videos. It was the most bizarre thing I had ever tried to navigate… kept taking me back to pages to comment.. I didn’t want to comment… just wanted to figure out how to get to the first module…. After expressing my frustration and also explaining ways to make it user friendly … they literally fired me… pretty sad for a company that is blasting ads all over Facebook about compassion to be so weird… my friend told me today to just drop using it and cancel but I wanted to try anyway… ha they fired me..… I personally think people with back pain are going to be frustrated or maybe people like me in a certain age group where back pain becomes a big deal. I am really bummed because the information and knowledge is there… oh and I think they blocked me from being able to comment on their Facebook posts…So disappointed. Ps. In over 30 years… I have maybe written four bad reviews of something… I usually just walk away… I would be totally ok with all of my emails to them be posted… it seems they might have skipped a few things…. … there is just something about their interaction that was totally dismissive…I even sent an apology of an email I sent as I was so upset when they told me I wasn’t “a good fit”. Just a totally bizarre experience. Also. Just read the response for the company… not sure where they got that I said they were stupid…. I don’t think that I said anyone was stupid… but again feel free to post an email that I actually called someone stupid…. Yikes.

I’ve just completed CBT, and I can’t tell you how pleased I am with the results! I am out of pain 98% of the time (it's not painful, just a twinge), and I will continue the maintenance program until I am strong enough to complete all of the challenges and progressions. My goal is to be comfortable skiing in Telluride by the end of March (approximately 3 months). After the progress I’ve made during these last 3 months while doing the CBT program, I am confident I’ll reach my goal! Like many people, I had gone to a Physical Therapist, Yoga, and tried lots of different exercises and stretches that I found online, none of which seemed to help, and I think some of them actually exacerbated my pain. Of course, once you start clicking on topics that include “back pain” or “sciatica,” you get advertisements for ALL KINDS programs. There were some that said you can heal your back pain/sciatica with “these 5 steps” for a $70 DVD. At first I thought, well $70 isn’t too bad if ends up not helping. I had spent more on PT. But then I came across Dr. Ryan’s sponsored video. I was drawn to the name, Core Balance Training, because intuitively I felt that that I had an imbalance in my pelvis/hips. Yoga and stretching weren’t helping. I listened to the intro Masterclass, and I knew CBT was the right direction for me. I was committed and consistent which I feel was key to my success. At the beginning, I thought there was NO WAY I would EVER be able to do this exercise/movement! But by the end of the 3 months, I was shocked to discover how much strength I had gained, and I had NO PAIN! This is an OUTSTANDING program, and their professional and encouraging staff was available to answer questions quickly (within 24 hours), and I always felt heard and cared for. It was like having my own personal PT who was available whenever I needed them! I also want to encourage anyone who is looking for help with their back pain, don’t waste your money on programs out there that claim overnight success, or claim “just do these 3 steps” to rid yourself of back pain. Make the investment in a program that will give you complete, balanced, and long-term results. When you commit to Core Balance Training, you are giving your back, and your body, the very best!

After trying to correct my lower lumbar issues, pain and restricted range of motion, and being told by orthopedic back surgeons I'd have to stay this way and keep myself in the "cobra" position forever, I turned to inversion table, stretching and yoga. These helped, but didn't fix the problem. Then, on a whim, I tried CBT and immediately I noticed a major difference for me. In particular, I started to put my clothes on differently, put my shoes on while they were on the floor, walk up stairs differently, work out in the gym differently. Today, I find myself bending forward incessantly, doing deadlifts and squats in the gym, playing golf, and now playing tennis three days each week.....all of these pain free and renewed range of motion and flexibility. It all started with CBT and working the program with great prejudice and discipline. I even stayed in the early lessons for much longer than most, because that's where I found success, where I found more benefits and are the daily exercises I love and use daily.

I didn't have back pain but I have Diastasis Recti. I took this course to help avoid surgery and although I don't know if it fixed everything perfectly, I am so much more functional. My core is functioning how it should now and I had no idea how bad it was before I learned how breath, walk, and stand correctly again. It's been at least 8 years since I could do those things correctly. This program has been truly life changing and I feel like everyone should do it! It's affected every part of my life for the better.

My first introduction to the Core Balance Training program was through an advertisement on my Facebook feed. I must admit I rarely, if ever, click on those ads, much less purchase anything through them, but this one caught my eye. I have spent my entire adult life participating in sports that has injured or strained my back. But my back pain could always be quickly alleviated by a chiropractic adjustment. My Chiro told me that my pelvis and sacrum would rotate forward, putting pressure on the sciatic nerve which caused the tingling & pain I would experience. No one EVER explained to me WHY my pelvis/sacrum would rotate nor what I could do to stop it. But, the straw that broke the camels back came on suddenly just this past Sept 30th. My latest sports endeavor was pickleball which I had started playing in the spring of 2023 at the spry young age of 73! By September, I was obsessed with it and was playing 3 times a week for several hours at a time. So of course, I assumed that all the muscle tightness and soreness I felt was just another result of my advancing age. And, since I did minimal stretching or other exercises, my body finally said “Nope, you’re done”. On the morning of 9/30, I awoke with absolutely the most excruciating sciatic pain down my right leg that I had ever experienced. I could not stand nor walk. The only time I was not in debilitating pain was lying in a fetal position in bed, or sitting in a chair. Suffice to say I spent the next two weeks waiting on an appointment with an orthopedic doc who did nothing more than give me prednisone, pain killers and muscle relaxers, and set me up for an MRI and physical therapy. In my desperation to find relief while waiting for the orthopedic appointment, I stumbled upon the Core Balance Training program on my Facebook feed. I watched the introductory video, and the lightbulb suddenly came on as to why my pelvis/sacrum would constantly tilt forward. My core was weak, my muscles were simply out of balance, and I had done nothing over the years to try to reestablish that equilibrium. Needless to say I was skeptical about this program since Facebook is rife with scams but it all made perfect sense on Dr. Ryan’s videos. So, I finally decided to take a chance and give the program a try. Each lesson was clear and concise and enabled you to progress at your own level and ability. The support from the CBT team has been extraordinary and their responses to questions are extremely thorough, encouraging and timely. Likewise, the entire CBT community is supportive and compassionate. Now, a mere two months later, I cannot begin to tell you the incredible amount of improvement I have seen. In the first weeks of the program I could barely lift my pelvis off the floor when attempting the early exercises. I can now easily hold a 5-minute bridge as well as some of the more advanced progressions of the bridge. My core strength has improved dramatically. There were exercises introduced, where I thought “I could never do that”. And now I’m amazed at what I have been able to accomplish. My physical therapist has been impressed by my progress as well. He has even suggested that I slowly return to Pickleball after Christmas. All in all, this has been quite the journey for me. I have gained a wealth of knowledge about how my body works as well as the root cause of my lifetime of anterior pelvic tilt. CBT has taught me a great deal about the importance of keeping my body in balance. It has provided me with the tools to improve my core strength and to correct my muscle imbalances at my own pace. This program has given me back my life. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Ryan‘s CBT to anyone, regardless of your back issues. As of this date 12/17/23, I am beginning the last phase of the CBT program – – the return to active life. I look forward to learning and applying the lessons that will be presented in the last modules. If you’re at all hesitant about beginning CBT, I urge you to cast that hesitancy to the wind. This is a life-changing program. I will be eternally grateful to the CBT team for their support, compassion and encouragement throughout my journey back to a pain free & active lifestyle.

I loved the course and Ryan is very relatable however my only criticism is that once you’ve paid for the course can’t go back and review some of the exercises that were the most helpful to me. Other courses I’ve taken once you Purchase the course you can go back and review what was most helpful to you and also find things that you missed

I love this program! It’s well designed to help me follow the lessons everyday, which made it easier for me to commit to the exercise consistently at my own pace. I also learned a lot from their weekly live lessons & Q&A. I feel so much more in control of my back pain, both physically and mentally. So glad I found this program!

Highly recommend. This program changed and reframed my entire belief about where and how low back pain comes about -- and how to get rid of it. The programs starts at the beginning and guides you one step at a time to becoming pain free. It is NOT an ATM/Microwave approach. It is holistic, and legit ... a "crock pot" approach ... so, when the results come, and they WILL come, they stay for good. I am a HUGE fan of Dr. Peebles and Core Balance Training. It legit changed my life.
