Awesome! Thank you so much. The progress I have done in 7 weeks it's just unbelievable. It's been 18 years with chronic back pain, herniated discs, stenosis and sciatica and none of the PT visits I went to through all that time helped me the way your program has helped me. I feel blessed that I found your program. Honesty, I'm feeling free again, I'm understanding my body and I'm not scared to move. So thank you 🙏

Not going to lie Vinny, I was skeptical last night but I went from tears to feeling better after 30 minutes. Thank you for hosting this four day course. You're much appreciated coming from someone who has been living with constant back pain for fifteen+ years. You're a gem. Thanks for having my back.

This is life changing. I've had a pinched nerve in my neck for 25 years. Causes shoulder and are pain with very limited mobility. Low back and chronic hip pain for 38 years following a car accident. The first day during the movements my neck pain stopped and I was able to raise my arm. My hip pain is decreasing. It's been 1 week, I can use my arm normally, my head turns both ways finally after all these years. I signed up for the full course.
At 65 to regain range of motion, mobility, strength an eliminate pain is life changing!

These videos have genuinely been helping me so much. Ive had severe back/hip/ right leg pain and after following your videos, i can actually walk without pain, i can sit and not want to cry out in agony. Ive been to chiropractors, osteopaths, doctors, none have helped me like this. So thank you, seriously!

I do the exercises daily about 15 month. I have Scoliosis and MS. I am 68 years old. My life has changed in many positive ways: I have less pain need no more medication. I sleep much more better. A year ago I only can sleep 1,5 hours than I had to stand up and walk around, do exercises,massage the muscles, now I often can sleep 4 hours turn around and sleep again.
I am standing much more upright . In the beginning I only could do 7 steps and then pause, now I can do 50 steps.
For me painacademy is a gamechanger.

A year ago I was broken couldn't carry my own kids! I felt like I wasn't a man! My wife had to carry the groceries the kids and I felt uselsss I cried sometimes by myself! In the bathroom! I thought I was done for! It started interfeeeing with my job! Until one of my friends showed me the pain academy I was sketchy at first I followed you for a year before I said f#*% it ! I got nothing to loose! I DM you and told you I was a barber and if this program was for me and you replied I'll have you back on your feet standing ! I had to become the man I wanted to be so I showed up every day for 56 weeks l'm not perfect I missed a few days due to work but I kept showing up! After a month I became pain free and I realized the more I show up the more the pain went away! I realized a lot of things were out of place in my journey and thats why l'm starting
again! Because body needs it!

RECOMMEND!!!!!!!!!!!!! The fundamentals behind this program are on point. The man behind the program has a soothing, yet encouraging way of making you comfortable with your current ability level. He discourages flashy and showy work or speeding through movements to achieve a bigger range of motion. I use this has my prework out. I am rapidly noticing huge imbalances which have absolutely led to the pain I have been experiencing for years. I've jumped on them any programs over the years. This is structured so nicely which makes it easy to follow. The therapies are 20-35 minutes tops. The same therapy is repeated for 5 sessions and then you move on to another which adds more skills to what you have already been taught. I've been thoroughly impressed. I had spent thousands on acupuncture, chiropractic therapies, massage, stretch clinics, yoga, ice baths, hot tubs, foam rollers...nothing has been as beneficial to me as this. By your completion of the program you will have a fundamental routine which can be used to assess your imbalances and pain, as well as, correct them. Five stars. Invest in you!!!!!!!!

My scoliosis was at 73 degrees, it was so bad that the doctors told me I shouldn't get the surgery due to the curvature from top to bottom. I was in such pain I really thought that this was the last chance of my life. As I moved through the program I progressed so much that I could do things I never thought I could and I kept gaining muscle and getting stronger and it became easier.

Ive been doing this program for about a month and it's the only thing that has brought me relief. I have buldging disk at L5s1. Doing anything was painful and my life didn't feel like it was in my control. I was so motivated to heal but I couldn't find the right path until I found pain academy. I still have a way to go, but feeling that I am making some progress keeps me going. I appreciate the detailed descriptions for each movement, it really helps me tune into my body. I listen to the videos each time I do my routines even if I have it memorized because the knowledge and encouragement from Vinny is always worth listening to over and over and I continue to take something new away. If you're debating trying this I truly encourage you to. I have spent so much money on many in person pts and some online programs, this one is the one that is helping me heal. I finally stopped taking ibuprofen and I can sleep through the night. Thank you pain academy * forever grateful and excited to see where I can go from here!

You are absolutely correct. My body kept me upright and moving. I've dealt with this for 19 years now and I can't tell you how many times I've cried and sobbed since l've joined your program. I've cried from tears of joy because I've had so much early success since l've started with you..... I have been recommending this to friends, family, and everyone that sees me doing this at my gym. Thanks

After living as a tortured, anti-social hermit due to chronic pain, I initially avoided the program's group calls because discussing my suffering with others seemed horrifying. When I finally joined after three months, the experience was completely life-changing in ways I never expected. My biggest advice to new members is to attend group calls immediately and ask your personal questions right away—don't wait like I did.

Many thanks for sharing your inspiring story of overcoming your dark night of the soul, spirit, mind and body, wow! That took courage! Thanks for sharing your wisdom and knowledge with everyone through the movement program. It sure has helped me - 9 months into the program and no more pain in my lower back, hips and no more sciatica! Yippee! I'll be signing up for another year! 💜

PainAcademy.com restored my back function after a year when nothing else worked. Quite simply, it gave me my life back. I'm a 75 year old 5th degree karate black belt and retired brain research scientist with a long history of lumbar stenosis. I had 7-years pain free after an L4-5 laminectomy, but then injured my back again and was in pain when standing more than a few minutes for over a year. I had to wear a brace constantly, put a chair by the sink to do dishes, use a wheelchair at the airport, and could not stand in lines, kick higher than my waist or touch my toes. I tried acupuncture, chiropractic, spinal compression, and every "cure" on the internet for a year. Nothing worked until I started PainAcademy.com. In two months, the 15-50 minutes of daily guided exercise made my back 90% better. I do two hour black belt classes again and do not need the brace! I'm incorporating some of the exercises into my daily practice and will do them the rest of my life. I've realized that my lumbar stenosis and history of frozen shoulder (cartilage growth) have decreased the joint functioning of my hips and shoulders, and the whole body PainAcademy.com program is restoring the way they work together. I highly recommend this program!

I have been doing this program for about 5 months now. Not only have I seen improvements in the area (right lower back) that I was having a lot of pain with, but I am seeing improvements in so many other areas of my body that I didn't even realize weren't working optimally, or that I had just given up on. I have found this whole-body longer term approach to pt much more effective than going for a target area-specific pt approach.

A car accident that damaged my hips and spine, along with poor movement patterns, and 4 pregnancies left me seeking help from doctors and specialists. I was basically told physical therapy would be useless in my case and prescription meds, injections and surgery were my only options. I tried for years to "fix" my issues, to the tune of $10,000+. I found Pain Academy through their free 4 day hip challenge. I knew that this is what I needed! I joined their movement program almost 3 months ago and I cannot believe how much better I feel. My hips, back and feet don't hurt anymore, I'm getting stronger every day, I can walk without pain and my pelvic floor dysfunction/pain disappearing was the icing on the cake. This program is very easy to follow along with, Vinny's encouragement, instruction and queues throughout the videos are very helpful, the movements are challenging without being complicated, and if something begins hurting, I have learned the tools to resolve my issues. I truly cannot recommend Pain Academy enough!!!

I've had hip issues that progressively got worse every pregnancy. After baby #4 they did not seem to be getting better. After a year of physical therapy and seeing a chiropractor, I decided to try to Pain Academy. This has helped like nothing else has. I can now say that my hips are almost back to normal and I feel much stronger and much more stable. I have no doubt the Pain Academy is to thank for my serious progress. Thank you Vinny.

I love this program. I've been doing the movements everyday for about one month and I feel so much better! No more sciatica, low back pain is pretty well gone, if I feel it I just do some of the gentle movements and it is gone. I walk with more ease, and my shoulders are so much stronger. I can hold my arms up over my head for a few minutes in my Qi Gong practice without any pain. I would highly recommend this movement program for anyone with pain or if your fit and active this program will increase your performance with ease.

I was so desperate to put an end to my back pain when i first made an appointment with Vinny. After just one online session with Vinny i realized it was not. He proposed a theory that the underlying cause of my back pain was actually my hip which appeared be non functional. His recommendations to me were based on this theory. He told me to follow them and see how i feel and we can take it from there. Before Vinny, working out, driving, walking for 20 minutes or longer, holding a light purse or backpack, (even wearing a bra with straps), sitting at my desk, and lifting anything over 10 lbs would trigger my back pain and this would, in turn, trigger headaches and neck pain that would last days and interfere with my sleep cycle. My pain significantly slowed down my progress at the gym and was a huge burden in my life. After Vinny, i went on a two week vacation to Italy. I knew i felt better after following Vinny's recommendations but i thought this would be the ultimate test since my last vacation to Rome (about 4 years ago) involved me having to stop at a cafe every 10 minutes because i could not bear the pain i felt in my upper back. I am now back from the most amazing vacation thanks to Vinny. I felt like superwoman. My back pain was significantly reduced. It felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders because i could finally do what i wanted to do without pain being an obstacle that i had to worry about. Moreover, i can actually feel my muscles engaging when i workout. My squat has improved, i finally feel my glutes being activated in my exercises, and i do not feel like my back is being cut with a big rigid knife when i weight train and thats great news for me!: Most importantly, Vinny CARES. I felt his empathy and compassion during our session and he showed great professionalism. I am so thankful and super excited to continue my sessions with Vinny!

After 16 years of constant back pain & 2 back surgeries in the mix, I was pretty skeptical on this method. However, after just one month of working with Vinny, I noticed a pretty drastic lessening of my pain, and at the month 2 mark I was completely PAIN FREE! I can't believe I just said those words! The genius in working with Vinny is his ability to change the exercises based on your body's response to them. He's incredibly intuitive and more importantly, he's shown me how to help myself. I'm confident I will only get stronger from here!

After 2 years of constant lower back pain and thousands of dollars spent in chiropractic visits with minimal relief I decided to give Pain Academy a try. The experience was life changing. I have seen my body change for the better over the past 6 months. It is a slow process and you get out what you put in.
Working with Justin has been amazing. He is knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and patient. My kids love to show up and interrupt our session and he takes it all in stride. He really does care and I've never felt rushed to end a session early. He always answers my questions and concerns no matter what. His answers are thoughtful and filled with insight.
I can't recommend Pain Academy enough! It is 100% worth the money.

Thank you so much for the better back class! Unfortunately I can't watch live, but due to the class I have awoken muscles in my lower back that have been a constant issue due to them not activating. It's only day two but it has helped dramatically. My ankles no longer crunch and my runs have become more enjoyable after the first.

Vinny! What you do is magic!
I believed in your approach before I discovered painacademy. I also got help from masseuses, physical therapists, and doctors with my imbalances. They all somewhat helped but didn't solve the underlying problem. And I knew it, but I didn't know what to do.
My issues aren't noticeable to the untrained eye but my imbalances have set me back years as an avid athlete.
I am already feeling the substantial improvement from taking your free scoliosis workshop. I know that repetition will pay off!
You're the man. I love your mission and I'm sure you're helping so many people live much better lives. My hat is off to you for what you do!

I have been suffering, knee, neck, back and hip pain for years. 5 years ago I was diagnosed for hip arthritis. I started with pain academy videos on the Youtube and finally I enrolled the movement program. This program is incredible. I can walk, sleep without pain already. I can't thank enough to Vinny. I am exited about the progress, I am only at the first phase of the program. I will continue patiently till the end. Ian 56 years old. Thank you very much.

This program is the only thing that has given me any light at the end of the tunnel so to speak. I now have 20 years of terrible dysfunction from my feet to my elbows. This accumulated from terrible ankle injuries that I didn't rehab properly when I was younger. I was a three sport athlete, college athlete, and pro racquetball player. The injuries and beating my body took was tremendous. I tried all the usual stuff to help my horrible hip and back dysfunction. Chiropractors, massage, physical therapy, egoscue method (which is great but didn't have much progression so it stagnated), acupuncture, etc.... minor relief came from these things and never lasted. Vinny spreads this information with love, compassion, and extreme passion. You can literally tell by his aura. His eyes say it all. I've been doing this for little over a month while still having to work an extremely physical job, and my body is changing in ways that I never thought possible. I can't tell you how many times I've cried tears of joy from getting relief in certain parts of my body. I'm feeling much straighter, have activation in muscles that haven't worked properly in years, and have far less pain overall. Please please please give this a try and commit to you. I promise you that you won't regret it. With love, peace, and Aum!

I'm feeling much straighter, have activation in muscles that haven't worked properly in years, and have far less pain overall. Please please please give this a try and commit to you. I promise you that you won't regret it. With love, peace, and Aum!

Pain Academy has put the joy back in hiking. My quality of life has definitely improved since joining the Pain Academy.
I also love Vinny's voice. It feels so good to not think about moving.

The program is a soft physical exercise that helps you retrain your mindset/body that has been traumatized by falling which has been my biggest concern for example when it rains all I can think about is slipping and falling on the wet leaves and I also feel like I'm having a psychological therapy session with Vinny when I tune in to the program

First, thank you so much. For the first time since finding out that I have scoliosis, I'm hopeful about having a pain-less and active future. I figured out that I had scoliosis at 12 years old while getting an x-ray for a seemingly separate injury (stress fracture in L5 vertebrae). I had a moderate curve of 30 degrees on my lumbar and a slight curve on upper thoracic in opposite direction, and I was braced for several years until I stopped growing. The universal wisdom from all of the doctors I met was that it doesn't get better — you can only manage the pain and attempt the keep the curve from getting worse. Then I saw the results of your program, so I signed up. Within weeks the pain in my left hip and lower back we're going away, and the knots in my upper right back that caused daily headaches were happening less frequently. Sure enough, a year later, and my stride is more balanced; I'm loose in my lower hip and back and experience far less pain if I'm regularly moving; and I have a long term vision for mobility. What's most remarkable has been my body's adaption to the movements. Now when I get into a rest position with my legs lifted, my hip and shoulder almost immediately begin to spasm and release.
My emotional space shifted dramatically. I no longer felt the need to repress or ignore tightness and pain, and I felt that release daily. I'll share two breakthrough moments. The first was when I took a road trip and suffered very little pain or stiffness. The second was when I slept on the "bad side" of my back. I was only ever able to sleep on one side, not the other. Such simple but breakthrough moments. Finally, I was able to confidently begin biking long distances! A passion of mine that l've not felt confident about engaging in since college.
| have hope! I used to wake up from anxiety dreams feeling that I'd be immobile before I got old. I no longer do! So grateful. I also have a much different relationship with my body. Very in touch and gentle on my movement, aches, and needs. I'm general, I have far less pain and, most importantly, know what I need to do to feel better. There's a way!

I was injured in jiu jitsu years ago and had shoulder problems ever since. I had forgotten what it felt like to just stand up straight.
Luckily I found Vinny and the program on Instagram over a year ago and decided I had nothing to lose. I remember the first time I REALLY felt my body straighten out after a routine within the first few months.
While I know I have a long way to go to get back to how I felt at 25, it truly has been the best investment I've ever made.

I'm so thankful for this program. I'm almost at 2 years hanging out with your movement sequences!!! I'm 50 years old and a vegetable farmer, I want to be able to farm my whole life and this program has me on track for that. I was noticing tightness in bending over, my left foot was turning in as I walked and it was a bit floppy. My spine is curved and and my right wing sticks out. I saw the results people were getting with your program and so I'm going for it.
I see that this is a continuous practice and I'm all in. I tell everyone about this practice and when they tell me their hurts I tell them the problem is probably upstream of the hurt. It's not my knee but my very tight right hip and so on and so on. Mostly this program has helped calm my nervous system and I'm connecting to my body like never before. This program is about DEEP listening and awareness. My video of me walking might still look the same, I haven't checked but I don't feel the need to because as long as I listen to and communicate with my body THAT is the skill I want. I feel really strong.
