Finally a solid plan with structure
This program helped me stop scrambling in fear from one instagram influencer to the next. It helped me establish a proper plan and allowed me to understand the neuroscience aspect to chronic back pain. Nate has done a fantastic job breaking down the program into reframe, rewire, and restore and it has helped me a ton.

I’m so grateful I found Back Unbroken
I’m so grateful I found Back Unbroken. After five and a half years of living with a lower back that constantly failed me, I stumbled across the program at my lowest point. And while part of me wishes I’d found it sooner, the program has helped me so profoundly that I can honestly say I found it at exactly the right time.
The course is incredibly potent. It felt like a one-on-one consultation the whole way through — every time a question popped into my head, Nate answered it in the very next video. The content went far deeper than I expected, and it took me two days to get through all of the theory. The way Nate blends personal experience with practical advice and clear diagrams kept me completely engaged.
Those two days were some of the most enjoyable I’ve had in a long time because, for the first time in half a decade, I felt genuinely seen. I had poured so much energy into trying to solve my pain, yet I never cracked it. Nate and the Back Unbroken team connected the dots so coherently on a topic that had defeated me for years. Being handed the solutions to my biggest problems for 150 bucks felt like the best buy of my life.
It’s been three months since I started the program and my progression has been exponential. No, I can’t do everything I want to do yet — but for the first time I have a clear path forward and every reason to feel positive. I’m unwinding half a decade of nervous-system miswiring, and I’m confident Nate has given me the tools I need to return to the person I’ve dreamed of being.
I’m writing this because this space is crowded with people selling answers, and it’s easy to be skeptical of yet another paid course. Some of the other resources out there are exactly why I ended up in a five-year battle with my lower back. A lot of that advice is what miswired my system in the first place. But if anything in Nate’s free content speaks to you, I urge you to give the course a shot.
The insight into the nervous system hasn’t just helped my back. It’s changed how I see and communicate with my body. As someone who has also struggled with chronic digestive issues and brain fog for most of my life, the course opened up avenues for me to understand and improve these conditions at the same time. It’s given me hope that I can change far more than just my back pain.
If any of this resonates with you, I hope you give Back Unbroken a chance. If I had one wish, it would be to stop others from suffering the way I did. Back Unbroken is the key to that wish.
Thank you for reading <3

Thanks Blake! Stories like this are what it's all about!
I think this is the most extensive lower back pain knowledge and training program I have seen. There is so much useful information on this topic (like pain dials for example), everything is well thought out and makes sense. I am doing Restore program and hopefully the pain can finally go away when I get my body used to all these bending exercises.

You don’t have to live with pain
After years of physical labour in the construction industry along with being in my late thirties, my back was always in pain. It was worse when it flared up. I did everything from stretching and strengthening, to seeing Physio, chiro and massage therapist. BackUnbroken helped me see why I was still in back pain and educated me on how pain isn’t just associated with bio mechanics (eg bulging discs). More importantly the program gave me practical ways to overcome this pain but most importantly, to understand this pain, which was key to getting me out of pain. The program was very transparent especially with the commitment involved in undertaking the program. Dr Nate was also easily reached through messages and video call. I won’t hesitate to recommend this program to anyone suffering back pain, no matter how bad your bio-mechanical symptoms may be. Give it a chance, everything will click, and how they educate you on how your central nervous system and pain are connected is top notch!

Thanks so much for sharing! Stories like this are what it's all about!
This company is very important for people with back pain. They have lessons that teach you about back pain which is important because most people don't understand it. They have lessons on how to do the exercises that you need to do they tell you to start small and slow. You start with a trial which tells you everything that you need to know so that you know if you want to go forward with a paid subscription. All in all it's a very amazing experience and I think anybody with a bad back or with chronic pain in the back should definitely check this out It's worth it

Revolutionary program
I started BackUnbroken because I had developed constant, aching lower back pain. Every part of my life was affected by this, from the moment I woke up to the moment I went to bed at night. I couldn't even do the dishes without using a back brace. Before finding BackUnbroken, I was doing the usual "remedies": stretching, chiropractic, hip mobility, core strength etc. I had some slight relief through these things, but it was only very slight and was always temporary. I was also watching an overload of Instagram reels of trainers claiming they had the ultimate fix to my back pain problems, and the amount of information was overwhelming. I didn't know who was right.
I saw an ad for BackUnbroken on Instagram randomly and was intrigued by Nate's claims about neuroplasticity and how the nervous system affects back pain. He also immediately brought up the confusion I was feeling about all the different solutions people claimed to have, so that resonated with me. I decided to give the program a shot since there was a five-day free trial.
Literally within the first day I made improvements. The concept of back pain being related to the nervous system and the way you were thinking about your back pain was totally new to me, but Nate shows the studies that back it up, so I decided to take a sort of "leap of faith" and trust what he was saying.
Within the first week of doing the program, my aching lower back pain had dramatically reduced. The reason for this was that I was starting to understand something about my back: the back (and spine specifically) is not a fragile piece of human machinery; on the contrary, it's actually extremely robust, flexible, and resilient. There is a mindset about the back that has prevailed over the years that pretty much everyone accepts, and the basic idea is this: your back is weak, and you need to be very careful with it. Nate totally shatters this myth in BackUnbroken. Once I became confident in my back and spine and realized the motions I was afraid of doing were actually completely safe, the pain started to lessen and has virtually disappeared since.
This is going to sound dramatic, but BackUnbroken is actually life-changing. It saved me from a lifetime of worrying about my back and spending thousands of dollars treating it. Your back is not the fragile thing you think it is. It's incredibly capable and you can learn to build confidence in it. In my opinion, BackUnbroken is the start of an entirely new philosophy on the treatment of back pain.

Great experience so far
I’m two months into the course and a few weeks into actively implementing all the techniques, and it has already given me real hope and trust that there is a way out. I’m starting to feel some overall improvement, which is incredibly encouraging. The course itself is amazing — bite-sized, absolutely informative, and free of any unnecessary fluff. Every video is clear, to the point, and packed with exactly what you need. Nate explains everything so well, and his examples and analogies really resonated with me. I feel confident I’m on the right path; I just need to stay patient and consistent.
Another huge benefit is that you can message Nate directly, and he was always really helpful, answering my questions and clarifying anything I was unsure about.

20 plus years of back pain and finally good relief
Now 67, I have lived with sciatica for more than 20 years and struggled to find lasting relief. I tried nearly every common treatment: prescription painkillers, muscle relaxers, over-the-counter medications, vitamins, multiple steroid injections, acupuncture and dry needling, chiropractic care, decompression therapies, and physical therapy. None of these helped beyond short-term relief; the pain always returned or grew worse. I maintain an active lifestyle, and surgeons told me surgery would severely limit the activities I enjoy. I’ve also seen cases of failed and repeat surgeries, so I decided not to go down that route.
Over time I discovered that some physical-therapy exercises did provide relief. Although some movements were painful while I did them, they did not cause further damage and helped in the long run. I focused on building a stronger core and believed that improving core strength could reduce my pain. I sensed I was on the right track, but I didn’t fully understand why it worked.
Then I found Dr. Nate Feehrer and his BackUnbroken program on YouTube. Right away I saw that he understood the missing pieces: how the back can send false pain signals and how targeted exercises can rewire the nervous system. After researching his approach, I realized he was legitimate and could clearly explain the nature of my pain. I signed up for the free trial, saw potential, and started the program.
After years of quick fixes and what sometimes felt like snake-oil solutions, I found a program built on sensible, lasting methods. My prior back- and core-focused work gave me a strong foundation for his lessons, and I quickly saw improvements. I believe someone starting from scratch would likely see even faster gains.
I’m still working through the Restore routines and I know there’s more progress to come, but I’m thrilled with how much better my back feels now. The workouts aren’t extremely difficult, but they do require time and patience. The process is not strictly linear—some days felt worse—but by continuing the program I have made steady progress. Persistence and patience are key, and Nate’s clear explanations of pain mechanisms and the rewiring process make it easy to trust the work. If you follow the program and stick with it, you will be rewarded.
Thank you, Nate. I’m a very satisfied customer.

This program has been phenomenal
This program has been phenomenal! It takes time and dedication but the results are worth it. When I got frustrated at my slow progress in the beginning I reached out and the team really encouraged me to continue on and after that is when I saw a huge improvement. They were very quick to respond and answer any questions I had. Requires outside the box thinking but results in great outcomes.

What the Drs should have told me
I cannot credit this program enough... Bare with me to share some back story.
I'm a strong late 30s male. Been dealing with chronic pain for 2 years. 2 herniated discs in lower back brought me to ER in excruciating pain. I have disc herniations in my neck too from years ago but this was a nasty version I was experiencing in my back. I never thought that I would leave the hospital in the condition I felt that day, even with a series of pain meds in my system. I was reliant on a walker for 1 month and gave myself blisters on my hands from constantly supporting my body when using the walker. PT helped a lot but only got me so far and I was not able to sit for too long or walk for more than 1/4 mile before exponential pain. Surgeon said I need more nerve symptoms before considering surgery. Got 3 epidural shots and that brought me to 90% and I was happy during that time but it only lasted so long before effects wore off. Then I felt stuck, consulted with 2 neurologist, 2 PT programs, and several Drs on next steps. I was going to the gym 3x a week doing only light duty core strength exercises during my 3rd shot and relief seemed to last longer but alas had a moment that decommissioned my ability to move. Got another MRI and saw neurologist and was told to get more shots and PT and that imaging looked "good". Did research on alternative methods from stem cell injections and a less invasive newer procedure called DiscSeal. Neither were developed enough to feel those were the right approaches. That is when I saw a FB ad from Nate on this program and was willing to try anything. I literally approached it with such optimism even though my gut (and others in my ear) were saying this won't work. But it was just time and a fraction of money to waste because nothing in this program suggested to do something that would induce more pain or cause a setback. I learned mental approaches that challenged my prior conceptions but they were backed by logic and reasonable analogies. It was coupled with PT exercises that definitely supercharged my progress. In my case, progress was slow (several months) but consistently increasing. I am now feeling 95% and am confident I can reach greater results with more time and physical exercise. And equally as important, I no longer feel like I am handicapped into living and planning my life because back pain can very drastically take over your life.
I am not getting anything for sharing this review. The medical journey I had never mentioned the possiblity that my chronic back pain might not be cause by physical damage in my spine. I don't expect this program to work for everyone as each person's conditions are all unique. But I STRONGLY recommend trying this program, and mentally commit to it for x amount of time, if you are dealing with chronic back pain.
A happy past customer.

Thanks for sharing Mark! I think others will find encouragement from reading about your recovery
The app is very smooth and easy to navigate. I’m really impressed with the app and have tried multiple other back programs—this one has definitely been the best experience. The service is great, and the team really makes you feel heard and not alone. Back pain is pretty scary to go through and often feels like you are helpless, hopeless and not sure what to do next, but this program has instilled confidence and hope in me again. I’m roughly 2 weeks in and trending in the right direction. This is going to be a long process but I feel confident that with the guidance of this plan, I’ll finally get out of pain.

This program is life changing
This program is life changing! Dr. Nate explains everything very clearly in an easy to follow format. His program is backed by his expertise in neuroscience, physical therapy, and his own personal experience with back pain. My pain completely went away after only 2 months in the program by following the exercise plan and watching the lessons. Give this program a chance and be prepared to learn about pain in a whole new lens.

I can't say enough about how amazing this program is! I appreciate the simplicity! It has been the only thing that has helped me understand my pain in 3 years. The microprogressions make so much sense. I am learning how to move my back in the five main movements: flexion, extension, side bending, twising, and hinging. The restore level, where you practice these microprogressions, translate into my everyday life. Thank you Nate!

Back Unbroken is an excellent program…
Back Unbroken is an excellent program that gave me a really good understanding of the root causes of my pain and taught me strategies and basic tools that have helped me manage and understand the pain much better. I am still not out of pain, but thanks to Nate’s program I have multiple back to back days with 0 symptoms. When things flare up, I know how to manage it and keep making progress. I’m only two weeks in and it has already helped a ton. Looking forward to totally eliminating this nagging injury.
I am so grateful for this program! Prior to starting this Back Unbroken I was stuck in a cycle of constant fear of when I was going to get my next flare up of lower back pain and I was scared to do activities I love such as running and soccer. Not only did the program help me strengthen my lower back through exercises, it also helped me get stop worrying so much about my low back pain which has been a game changer. I'm currently still working through the higher level exercises and back to running 3 miles a few times a week. I look forward to progressing even more and eventually playing soccer and tennis very soon!

Thanks for sharing your story Katie! So amazing to see this kind of progress
This program is phenomenal! I’m so grateful that I took the “chance” of giving this program a try. Due to a car accident I have lost a ton of mobility and experience a lot of pain due to fractures and herniated discs in my thoracic and lumbar spine. The education piece of this program alone I feel has helped me significantly because I now think differently and as I experience different situations that cause discomfort and or pain I respond completely different to it and it’s aiding in my healing. I love how the exercise components are broken down into the simplest and basic variations of movements and then you can build on them from there. If you’re someone considering this as a means to help your back issues, I’d definitely recommend. I just wish I knew about this program months ago… I know for sure I’d be much better by now.

Thanks so much for sharing your story! Looking forward to getting you back to 100% recovered!
I'm only 3-4 weeks in and I'm extremely encouraged by my results so far. I was skeptical with so much of the focus on neurological rewiring. I thought, I know what's wrong with me mechanically and that's what's causing the pain. In fact, anytime I went to a new specialist I would happily tell them all about the mechanical issues causing my pain. But I kept enough of an open mind to give it a fair shot.
As soon as I began to grasp some of the concepts, instant shift. I began to move easier and my pain levels went down.
8 years of back pain. $5K+ and several specialists. Modifying a car seat to make it work for me. I've literally tried it all, and have become extremely educated on the topic. But what's made the biggest difference after everything is understanding the neuroscience behind it and helping my nervous system relax.
Still ongoing and results aren't conclusive yet, but I'm very grateful I found this course and would definitely recommend it. Just keep an open mind.

I only wish I found this program sooner
I developed back pain seemingly for no reason. No one could figure out what was going on. After several expensive and painful months of no progress, Back Unbroken popped up on my feed and I decided to give it a shot.
If you want to get past your pain, you have to understand it and Nate’s educational content does just that.
After completing the program, I followed up with a 1-1 video call to help with some specifics to my case and found that to be extremely helpful as well.
If you’re tired of the pain and the stress that comes with it, I definitely recommend giving back unbroken a shot.
