Savvy Back Academy^® is a Multidisciplinary Functional Restoration program targeted at the episodic occurrence of moderate to severe soft tissue injuries and musculoskeletal disorders. The Academy consists of methods and principles that are compliant with the approval guidelines of treatment as set forth by the American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine (ACOEM).

Savvy Fitness has identified a common pattern related to soft tissue injuries and/or musculoskeletal disorders.

1. An underlying physical problem generates symptoms that cause pain,
2. The individual does not associate the symptomatic pain with an underlying problem,
3. Symptomatic treatment may improve the pain, but leaves the underlying problem unaltered,
4. The underlying problem grows worse and unnoticed because the symptoms may subside, and
5. The individual loses whatever opportunity they had to identify and solve the underlying problem.

Every element of the individual’s condition is given extensive consideration from a structural, mechanical, and psychosocial perspective relating to the pain that has become the major contributor to impaired functioning. Throughout the Savvy Back Academy® each participant is provided with the knowledge (what to do) and the skills (how to do it) necessary to prevent and relieve symptomatic pain, restore normal function, and improve overall levels of fitness.

The Savvy Back Academy^® provides proven results that allows each participant the greatest opportunity to identify and solve the underlying problem associated with musculoskeletal disorders, and create a more productive and enjoyable occupational and personal quality of life.
