In both options we'll lay out a program in a mobile app, telling you exactly what you're doing each day. You'll have the group calls, and full access to our educational courses & community.

The main difference is that in BASIC support you do NOT have chat support, 1-on-1 guidance, a plan made personally for you by Dr. Davis & Dr. Blake, or access to our main training app where we would normally build your workouts for you and track your progress.

In PRO & VIP support, you have unlimited chat so you can text, send voice messages, and get video exercise form checks all from Dr. Blake, with a 24hr response time. This is incredibly important, especially in the beginning, because we need to assess your abilities and limitations to correctly dial in the appropriate daily plan for YOU. The easier it is to quickly chat with you, gather feedback, and quickly modify your program, the more personalized your program becomes.

We strongly advise that most people start with PRO support at least until you feel like you really know what you're doing, then you can always move to LITE support once you're in a comfortable routine.

P.S. - VIP also includes 1:1 phone/video calls with Dr. Davis or Dr. Blake (your choice) as needed. Due to the intense 1:1 support, VIP is by invite only. If you're interested in VIP, just start with PRO, send us a message and we'll jump on a quick call to chat about upgrading your support once you're inside the program.

The Beyond Back Pain Healing Intensive is a fully supported program that results in teaching you how to take care of yourself for the rest of your life. During the program, Dr. Davis & Dr. Blake will personally manage your program design, offer text & voice chat support (PRO & VIP only), and be available for multiple group coaching calls each week.

You've never had this much support in your life, we promise.

Our program is meant to be a COMPLETE solution. Most of our clients find they do not need to do any treatment or programs outside our program, so you can stop wasting money on these endless appointments, unless you just REALLY like the feeling of hands-on treatment, then by all means do a little on the side!

You'll do best if you don't do any outside exercise beyond what is recommended inside our program. Don't worry! Our program will guide you on EVERYTHING (cardio, mobility, & strength). If you do random stuff outside our system, you'll end up skipping steps, flaring things up, and being frustrated. Let us structure everything for you.

Expect about 30–45 minutes per day, including guided exercises, short educational videos, and simple action steps. You can go faster or slower depending on your schedule — the program is flexible.

No gym required! Most exercises can be done with bodyweight or common household items. Resistance bands and/or weights are only necessary for later phases once you're ready for strength training.

Please do NOT join our program if:
- You haven't seen ANY healthcare provider who could rule out red flags.
- You have NOT been cleared for a movement based rehab approach.
- You have symptoms like foot drop, groin numbness, or incontinence (loss of control of bowel or bladder) and you have NOT yet had your doctor evaluate these symptoms to rule out red flags.
- You have other medical conditions that would make it impossible to stick to a movement based program
- You are unwilling to show up, put in the work, and communicate with us so we can help you succeed!

Here is a real MRI report from one of our clients:
"There is a posterior/left paracentral disc extrusion descending caudally measuring 17 x 8 x 11 mm resulting in impingement upon the descending left L5 rood in the left lateral recess and moderate narrowing of the thecal sac."

Does that sound familiar? It should. The MAJORITY of clients we work with have MRI findings similar to this.

As long as your doctor said it's safe to try PT or non
-surgical options, we can take it from there.This program has worked for people with:
- Disc herniations, extrusions, protrusions, bulges, and sequestrations (yes, even SEVERE)
- Nerve impingement- Stenosis
- Spondylolisthesis, anterolisthesis, and retrolisthesis- Scoliosis
- Degeneration (arthritis)
- And many other conditions...

Physical therapy and exercise are great! BUT - There are a few major limitations we need to address:

1) PT and other programs try to cherry-pick "magic exercises" that are supposed to fix pain by addressing "imbalances" or "misalignments."
- Current scientific research shows that "imbalances" and "misalignments" do NOT matter. This leads to a rehab hamster wheel.
- It makes you feel like you're broken.
- It means only someone with a clever exercise can help you (it robs you of your power to take care of yourself)

2) PT and most programs ONLY address a SMALL SCOPE of physical fitness.
- They only address a few magic muscles (core, glutes, hip flexors).
- They do NOT address FULL BODY mobility and strength.
- Therefore, they aren't preparing you for real life activities, and they definitely don't prep you for sports or intense exercise.

3) Most PT's and programs are a "ONE-TRICK-PONY".
- Exercise is great! That said, most of our clients have some other BIG issues that need to be addressed.
- Chronic pain puts your nervous system on high alert and leads to hypersensitivity, and overprotective muscle spasms.
- We need to address stress, fear, nutrition, sleep, and other lifestyle factors in addition to exercise.
- Yes, we know that some programs specialize in stress, and that's great! BUT, then THOSE programs ONLY focus on stress, and do NOTHING to address the PHYSICAL aspects of pain! Why is everyone a "one-trick-pony"??
--> Pain is not physical OR mental. It's both, and more. We need to zoom out.

4) Everyone gets the same recommendations
- Have you been to PT and felt like they were reading off a script?
- Did it feel like everyone got the same 3 exercises you did?
- Did they push you off on an assistant who barely paid attention to you?

5) Other programs and PT can't give you the structure and immediate feedback that we can.
- What if you have a concern in between PT appointments? You have to wait a week to get it answered.
--> Meanwhile, you're either not doing your exercises, or pushing through them when you shouldn't.
- WITH US, you have unlimited private text and voice chat, with a 24hr response time, 7 days/week.
- PLUS, 2x/wk group coaching calls
- PLUS, we put all your exercises in an app so you know exactly what you're doing each day. No guesswork.

6) We teach you how to do this for yourself for the rest of your life.
- We want you to be able to take care of yourself forever.
- Chronic pain means that if you STOP taking care of yourself, your chances of flare-ups are higher.
- So, we need YOU to be in the driver's seat. Education & empowerment are our #1 goal.

Our program works so well because of our education, chat support, group calls, and personalized program design.
Even if you lived in Colorado and saw me in person, insurance wouldn't reimburse for these things, even if I was in network!
Don't get me started 🙄

As for HSA/FSA, we've had many people use their HSA/FSA successfully but it's up to you to know if it will be covered.
- Sometimes people need to pay for the program, and wait until they've completed it in order to request reimbursement.
- Sometimes we need to provide documentation of what our program delivers. We're happy to help however we can.

This is NOT a quick fix. This is a long-term commitment to your health.
- That said, after 12 weeks, there should be no doubt that you are moving in the right direction.
- 98% of the people who just do what they are supposed to do are happy with their progress within 12 weeks.

Since many of you have had pain for such a long time, we encourage you to focus on making slow and steady progress in the following ways:
- Can you do more of the things you love?
- Can you tolerate more activity before pain stops you?- Is your quality of life improving?
- Do you feel more confident, less fearful, and less fixated on the pain?
- Are your symptoms improving in terms of frequency, duration, intensity, and function?

Often, we see more dramatic changes in areas like function, quality of life, confidence, fear, and stress BEFORE actual symptoms start to dramatically change. As long as we're improving many of these things, we're on the right path. Slow and steady wins this race.
