Never received the use or benefit for what I thought I was getting. I pd $697 for what I thought was access to the full program, but given I had two surgeries and other family issues I thought I still had access until I was completely done with the course. The purchase was on Black Friday and the offer made it should like it was the only one available. Now that I understand it’s a subscription, I realize that I should have had the offer of a monthly charge or the $499, which is what I actually used. Plus, the exercises are pretty basic and I could get more from any standard hip opening exercises. When I contacted them for help, I received instance multiple responses that are all AI standard statements. So, good luck with this lack of customer service.

Excellent program! Great customer service!

I appreciate the science based explanations of all the exercises. This is what I was looking for.

A really great guided programme for movement and pain relief

Very detailed instructions.Informative as well as calming demeanor..

At last, I feel understood. A brilliant combination of theory and practical application to help me understand why I feel the way I feel and improve function. 15 years of back pain and this programme has finally given me hope.

I’m only 4 weeks in, and while I still have pain, I’m noticing a difference in my movement already. Learning how to fire the muscles I want and tone down the ones that are dominant and tight is life changing. It’s something I’ve always known I needed to do, but no one has been able (or patient enough) to teach me how.

Thank you Vinny and team - this programme makes so much sense and I’ve already recommend it to others.

Almost a month in, there is a significant difference in how i feel about my body and chronic pain. It seems like the program has become something like a safety net for me. I don't know if it's a physical or a mental thing but certainly something has shifted. Nothing is magically resolved, it is definitely a commitment to show up every day and do the exercises persistently, but it's worth reconnecting with your body, through gentle and caring patterns of movement.

I wish I could find the words to truly express how impressed and improved I am because of this program. Vinny and his team have created a remarkable, evidence based and effective program that makes me feel better physically and mentally every single day. I am learning so much throughout the process and am confident in everything I'm learning. I believe all humans could benefit from this program and will be an evangelist to all those willing to listen.

When Vinny runs the classes live it motivates me to find the time when I have to find my own motivation there are so many problems in life that require time that it’s harder to simply just get swept away with life’s challenge's I do get benefit but it’s hard to maintain the momentum

The program itself isn't bad, but the customer service is severely lacking, so you have to hope you don't run into any issues. After being assured that my subscription had been canceled, I received four emails within six days about an unsuccessful payment attempt from pain academy. The only reason it didn't go through was because I happened to have that card replaced the month prior, otherwise they definitely would have charged me. Issues like that can happen, but when I inquired into it, I was met with a dismissive attitude and shoulder shrugging, basically, "I can see your subscription is canceled and you technically weren't charged so what's the problem? What do you want me to do?" It was borderline gaslighting that there wasn't actually an issue. I had to send a screenshot of the attempted charges before he finally offered to look into it. Customers shouldn't have to feel like they need to harass service representatives into doing their jobs.
ETA: When I attempted to reach a different representative, the same guy took over. He doubled down and has gotten increasingly rude, not acknowledging that attempted payments are, in fact, a problem. Even more so when they can't explain why I'm being charged. It says a lot about a company when they allow their service representatives to treat their customers like this.

This program is what I’ve been searching for to be able to heal myself from the chronic pain I’ve lived with for more than 16 years. In all that time I never gave up, and I knew that my body could heal itself. I’ve tried everything from yoga, massage, and energy healing to TCM and western medicine. Certain things helped for periods of time, and I managed it decently for many of those years, but recently I had a major nervous system crash after living in overwhelming stress and pain for many years. This lead me to find Pain Academy. I was skeptical at first and followed along on social media for a while as I thought about a membership. It felt like a lot of money to me and I didn’t want to get burned again by some online program that promised to help but in the end wasn’t worth it. I eventually did one of the free online workshops Vinny offers on YouTube, and that is what sold me. Every thing that was talked about in the workshop felt like exactly my experience. It was the first time I felt like someone fully understood the experience I had been having with pain, and my nervous system. I felt immediate relief within the three days of taking the workshop, and felt better from those three days than I had in months. I signed up the next day and the program is so well thought out and put together that it’s been worth every penny. I’ve been consistent everyday for 30 days now, and I can see that it’s going to take time and continued commitment, but I can see how this will be a way to actually be able to heal my body and mind to be able to do the things I love in life again instead just being a bandaid that only helps for awhile. I love that there’s a physical, mental, and emotional aspect to the program, it really goes deep into all the aspects needed to heal without being overly woo woo. I feel like I am finally beginning to understand my body, why it has been in pain for so long, and what it’s like to finally be able to relax and feel safe again in my own body. This program is literally changing my life. It’s helped me to begin making lifestyle changes too that have been much needed, and its impact goes beyond just the 30-40 minutes a day I spend doing movement and mindfulness lessons in the program.

The narrative accompanying the very doable movements help me stay motivated becuz i feel Vinny understands my frustration with myself and how nothing has helped me want to stay with program becuz i didnt trust it to work.

I've only really started the program, week 2, but I'm enjoying the simple, gentle approach to rediscovering and supporting mobility in my body.
I'm 62 and still working physically and have done some damage over the years, so I'm keen to support my movement in an ongoing fashion.
Knowing Vinny's story and what he's been through gives me some assurance that he knows what he's teaching.
Hope this helps.

This program is great. It’s putting me back in alignment and it’s making me limber again.

This program is amazing and I highly recommend it. Vinny provides guidance and easy to understand verbal cues, and the videos provide visual reference for proper execution of each exercise.
Prompts for feedback personalize the program to build foundational function, strength and endurance. The program lets you set the pace and there is online support available too.
I feel better, less pain and stiffness, my body functions better, and I have learned a lot from Vinny in the process.
My massage therapist, who did not know I was doing this program, noticed improvement in my body right away. I am so happy that I chose to sign up for this program.
Thank you for this amazing program which is restoring foundational movement, strength and function, to build a body that supports me for my lifetime!

Easy to follow. You can personalize your exercises. Can feel a positive different within a couple of weeks.

Vinny and his story and his program are like a candle in the darkness for those with chronic pain. He and his program are brilliant! He is super bright and as a bonus, funny when called for. His idea that it's 50% physical and 50% having to do with your mind, brain and nervous system is absolutely ingenious. Highest rating.

This entire program is top notch. From just feeling the love, understanding, reassurance, patience offered in the free YouTube videos alone to the willingness of the staff to interact and assess things with you is incredibly unique for a service offered online. As things seem to be overwhelming when one is in pain, disarray, or uncertainty facing the path in front of them Pain Academy does a phenomenal job of helping you to find a baseline to start working from. It is important to note that none of us ended up where we are today overnight and that it is a process of learning to assess the body, test the body, reevaluate the body and trust the body once again. Although right now I am financially unable to afford this program month to month as other cost on my journey to Wellness just do not afford me this opportunity if you have enough desperation, and willingness to learn what this team teaches conserve as a daily measuring stick for where your body is at every single day for the rest of your life. At around $50.00 a month which is comparable to most higher end gym memberships where I live the determination to do it on your own has to be there first for you to maximize this program, followed by patience and trust. Although it is not in the cards for me right now, I took away enough from Vinny's YouTube videos alone to know implicitly these are things I need to know and use for the rest of my life. I am fused from L3 to S1 and have insults at more than ten additional vertebral spaces working this program when I could did nothing but add value to the journey of mastering my path forward. Sad to go, but eager to return, I recommend this to anyone who feels slighted, unheard, or listless after dealing with traditional western medicine modalities as very little of this program is taught and retained with enough emphasis in the time allotted in traditional western medical appointments.

Signed up a year ago after having issues with my body. Signed up to a free trail and at the end thought i would give it a go as I had nothing to lose really as my body was in bad shape. Wasn't given all of the pricing options. Was given a year option which I went for and later found out there is a monthly and quarterly option. Didn't get much use out of the programme because of my condition which is function neurological disorder. I didn't have a diagnoses at the time when i signed up and got my diagnosis towards the end of the programme. I have started to make some improvements with my moving and thought I would give the programme another chance. I asked if i could be given sometime to see if the programme would work for me now and before I committed to paying again. I was offered a week which anyone can get. Thought they might be more generous given my circumstances and the fact that I was a signed up and couldn't really use it at the time because my condition deteriorated. Decided to give it another go using the monthly plan and I'm 2 days in and can't get logged in as it just keeps taking me back to the login in page. If things improve I will update my rating but as it stands I wouldn't recommend.

(Updating my review from 2 to 3 as i feel it is only fair to do so after starting to see some benefit from the programme. I stand by my original comments. Starting to see some progress and there's extra bits on there such as a mindset programme which teaches you how to process pain better. 12 days in and seeing a difference with how i deal with pain)

Vinnie’s program has brought me so much pain relieve already after 3 years of trying so many other options, doctors, chiropractors, physio, personal trainers to name a few. The exercises are simple and easy to incorporate in my day. Honestly, I think I tell everyone I meet about pain academy. Whether you d got pain or not, it’s a game changer. Thank you so much
