Christian Goodman reviews tend to fall into two camps: glowing summaries copied from sales pages, and dismissive posts calling him a fake. Neither is very useful. Here is what we could actually establish about the author credited on The Vertigo and Dizziness Program, what we could not, and what that means if you are deciding whether to follow his advice.

In brief: Christian Goodman is the credited founder of Blue Heron Health News, a digital publisher of natural-health programs dating back to 2008, and the author of several exercise-based guides. He is not a doctor or a physical therapist, and his own publisher’s pages say so. We found no independent biography, clinical registration or peer-reviewed record under his name.

What we can verify

  • The publisher. Blue Heron Health News is a long-running digital publisher that sells guides through ClickBank. Its catalogue includes authors such as Shelly Manning, whose bone-health guide follows a similar format.
  • The author credit. Goodman is named as author on a group of Blue Heron programs built around short daily exercises — among them titles on blood pressure, snoring and sleep apnea, insomnia, and vertigo.
  • How he describes himself. Pages connected to the publisher present him as a natural-health researcher and writer and state plainly that he is not a medical doctor and that the programs are educational, not cures.

What we could not verify

  • “Thousands of published research articles.” The vertigo sales letter says this. We found no peer-reviewed publication record under his name.
  • The personal story. The account of meeting a reader called Wendy, testing exercises on 20 and then 137 volunteers, and spending over $500,000 is told only by the sales letter.
  • A public identity beyond Blue Heron. We could not find interviews, conference appearances or professional listings. It is common in this publishing model for an author name to function mainly as a brand, and readers sometimes speculate that it is a pen name. We have no evidence either way, so we will not claim it.

What his programs have in common

Across the titles credited to him, the pattern is consistent: a condition usually managed with medication is reframed as something that short, specific exercises can address — breathing and relaxation for blood pressure, tongue and jaw work for snoring, head and neck movements for vertigo. The routines are simple and low-cost. The sales letters, meanwhile, tend to be sceptical of conventional medicine and generous with promises.

AspectWhat is typical of Goodman’s programsHow to read it
FormatDownloadable guide, short daily exercisesEasy to start; no personalised assessment
Price modelOne-off payment through ClickBankNo subscription; 60-day refund
Core ideaExercises target a root cause the author says medicine missesSometimes plausible, often overstated
Tone toward doctorsSceptical; medication framed as a problemDo not let it change your treatment
EvidenceAuthor’s own volunteer storiesUnpublished; treat as anecdote

Does it matter that he isn’t a clinician?

Less than you might think for the exercises, and a lot for the medical claims. Gentle neck mobility and relaxation routines do not require a medical degree to write down, but the program contains no eye-head or balance practice, and its movements are not much like what vestibular physical therapists teach. Where credentials matter is in statements like “doctors have no solution” or that vertigo medication and surgery are almost always useless. Those are clinical judgements, and on those we would take a physician’s word over a natural-health author’s every time.

So a sensible way to use his vertigo program is as a structured home routine, after a doctor has ruled out serious causes — not as a replacement for that assessment. Our full review explains which kinds of dizziness it suits.

Whatever any author says: vertigo that begins suddenly with double vision, one-sided weakness or numbness, trouble speaking, a severe headache or sudden hearing loss is a medical emergency. Call 911 (US) or 999 (UK). It can be a stroke.

Is Blue Heron Health News trustworthy?

As a seller, it is identifiable and sells through a third-party retailer (ClickBank) with a 60-day guarantee promised by the vendor; we have not independently verified its track record or requested a refund ourselves. As a source of medical opinion, treat it like any publisher with products to sell — read the practical content on its merits and the marketing at a discount.

FAQ

Is Christian Goodman a real person?

He is the named author and credited founder of Blue Heron Health News. We found no independent public profile beyond the publisher, so we cannot confirm more than that.

Is Christian Goodman a doctor?

No. Material connected to his publisher describes him as a natural-health researcher and author, not a physician.

What other programs has Christian Goodman written?

He is credited on several Blue Heron exercise-based guides, including programs on blood pressure, snoring and sleep apnea, and insomnia, alongside the vertigo program.

Should I trust his advice about medication?

No. Decisions about medication belong with your doctor. Use his exercises, if you choose to, as a supplement to medical care.

The author behind a program matters less than whether the program fits your problem. Judge Goodman’s vertigo routine on that, with a doctor’s diagnosis in hand, and the name on the cover becomes a minor detail.

How the vertigo routine relates to his snoring program

The publisher’s own sales material says the vertigo routine grew out of a stop-snoring exercise program. Reading the member copy that the publisher provided, we can confirm one point: the jaw, tongue and throat part appears to be adapted from that earlier program, and several passages in the PDF still mention snoring. That is a factual observation about the text, not a judgment about the author. The routine is not presented as a clinical program, and we found no clinical credentials for the author.
