It's day 18 on the program and we haven't missed one session. We both find the sessions easy and enjoyable and worthwhile and sensible.

I have suffered with a bad back for some time and the BACK TO LIFE program has been terrific for me. On top of the physical benefits that come from the program, this is an entire well being program for body, mind and spirit. You finish up each program feeling physically alive and mentally refreshed, while looking forward to what the next installment will bring. The wholistic approach to the mind body connection that comes from this wonderful program is absolutely fantastic.

I am on Day 4 of Back to Life. I wanted you to know that my husband and I are truly loving it. It is wonderful to wake up with you each morning and see you before bed at night. We both agreed that your genuine care for your patients comes through when you speak and you are a motivation to both of us.

My fibromyalgia is real, my absent shock absorbing second spinal 'curve' is real, my tight muscles and my feelings of brittleness are real... but so is the [Back to Life DVD] program and the riches that you have provided on a spiritual, physical and visceral level. I loved every session and I am about to embark on the maintenance segments.

I came to Dr. Grogin (DC, LAc.) broken - both physically and emotionally. I had just injured my lower back while playing golf and I was in terrible pain - I knew, eventually, that I would heal from my injury but I was extremely upset with the idea that I may not be able to play golf which is a passion of mine. I started the Back To Life program within a month of my first visit to Dr. Grogin (DC, LAc.) and worked morning and night for 28 days to be one of the first 'graduates'. Midway through the program I felt subtle changes - I was more flexible than I had ever been before - I was moving muscles that for so long did not work. I was more aware of the pain/twinges that I was experiencing and knew that it was ok to have those sensations, that I could work through them. I looked forward to each session during the 28 days and I am now religiously doing the Maintenance Program twice a day. I am also back to playing golf and last week I broke a 100 for the first time in my life. When I get my first hole in one, Dr. Grogin (DC, LAc.) will get full credit for that accomplishment.

I just completed your Back To Life program and am very excited to think that a few minutes of my time each morning and evening has made a difference in how I feel.
I have had lower back problems for a very long time and even though I know they are still present, with this program of exercise each day my back feels 100% better.
I would like to thank you for your help and inspiration with getting me started with this program which will make my retirement life much better and more enjoyable.

I feel years younger and I can work all day without my back brace. Without Back to Life I couldn't have made it though tax season.

I was excited to start the Back to Life exercise program. What appealed to me was it seemed like a program I could stick to since it was only ten minutes in the morning and ten minutes at night. I found the program very helpful. My flexibility improved considerably and even though I knew many of the exercises from physical therapy, I found myself actually enjoying doing these same exercises with Dr. Larry (DC, LAc.) and the two young women with him in my own home. I found Dr. Larry (DC, LAc.) very encouraging and also enjoyed his sense of humor. I found I was having less pain in my back and I was able to do two mile walks in 30 minutes easily which I hadn't been able to do in a while.
I finished all the DVDs and I am now doing the maintenance. I absoluely love the setting of the ocean and sand.
I highly recommend the Back to Life program. It works!!!!!

I could barely walk and could not bend over to tie my shoelaces....... Back to Life literally brought me back to life. Now I run, play ball, ski - without pain. Thank you Doctor Larry Grogin!

Dear Dr. Grogin (DC, LAc.),
I have been a Personal Trainer in Northern New Jersey for approximately 8 years. I've also suffered a fractured L5 vertebra about 10 years ago at the age of 24 after falling 12 feet from a forklift. I'm writing you after viewing your "BACK TO LIFE" Series because of the impact it made on me.
My physical therapy consisted of only a few of the exercise and stretches that your videos go into. They were shown to me with little regard to form, and I was not educated as to what to do on my own.
Soon after rehabbing my back, I returned to college and ultimately received a degree in Exercise Physiology. During my studies, I began trying to move again and regain some of the strength I had before the accident. I applied much of my background in biomechanics to the therapy I had originally learned from the therapists, only to realize in my new understanding of the body's mechanics, how much my health was disregarded during the therapy.
Your "BACK TO LIFE" Series begins viewers with the basics in terms of beginning to move again after a debilitating spinal problem. As the Series progresses, the viewer is brought through a full spectrum of stretches and exercises that strengthen and increase the flexibility of the spine, hips and shoulders.
Your 'hands-on' involvement with the demonstrators in the videos, and your explanations of the execution and benefits of the movements truly gives the viewer an understanding of their rehabilitation process.
Much of my return-to-health process has revolved around proper form with strength training movements and a balance of 'core' training, not to mention stretching. Your demonstrations in the "BACK TO LIFE" Series pleased me when I saw you teaching what I've learned through the movement sciences as the correct approach to movement rehabilitation. I've learned and comprehended even more after watching your "BACK TO LIFE" Series, and modified a few of the movements I perform with clients.
Rehabilitation is work. It takes commitment. You are there for the viewer every step of the way. Your "BACK TO LIFE" Series makes it easy for someone to stick with a program long enough to see and feel an improvement in their bodies.
My favorite portion in the Series is the "Maintenance" video. It really does show how easy it is for anyone to perform as little as a 5 minute routine in order to keep moving once they have achieved relief from back pain.
Thanks for the positive reinforcement,
