Why Your Shoulder Pain Isn’t Just Your Shoulder

Let me say something that might surprise you:

👉 Your shoulder pain might not actually be about your shoulder.

In my work, I constantly see how the body is deeply connected.

There’s a powerful relationship between:
• Your arms
• Your ribcage
• Your spine
• Your pelvis

And right in the middle of that relationship… is a space most people completely ignore.

When this area gets tight or guarded, the body starts to compensate:
• Neck muscles overwork
• Shoulders lose true support
• Breathing becomes restricted
• The lower body starts picking up the slack

And over time… pain shows up.

Not because your body is broken —
but because it’s adapting.

✨ When we restore balance → everything changes.

That’s what my sessions are about.

Not quick fixes.
Not surface-level work.
But real, integrated therapy that helps your body remember how to function.

💥 If you’re dealing with:
• Chronic shoulder or neck pain
• Recurring injuries
• Tension that won’t release
• Feeling “off” in your body

This is your sign.

Send me a message and let’s get you in. Booking into June and July and dates go quickly for a reason- this therapy works!! Option to book in quicker with my apprentice Elisa.

Hi, I’m Joelle 👋
Owner of Inner Peace Yoga + Therapy

And I need to say something honestly…
If you’ve tried massage, physio, chiro… and you’re still in pain,
it’s not because your body is broken.

It’s because no one has looked at the whole picture.

This is NOT just yoga.
This is NOT just massage.

This is integrated therapy that looks at:

• Posture + movement patterns
• Nervous system + breath
• Alignment + spinal decompression
• Feet → pelvis → spine → neck connection
• Deep tension your body has been holding for YEARS

I help people with:

• Chronic back, neck + shoulder pain
• Sciatica + disc issues
• “Tech neck” + tension headaches
• Tight hips + psoas holding
• Pelvic floor + core dysfunction
• Bodies that feel stiff, stuck, or exhausted

What makes this different?

Your first session is a full-body assessment (from your feet… all the way up 👣)

Then we work together to:
✨ Release
✨ Realign
✨ Retrain your body

So it can finally feel safe + supported again

✨ REAL CLIENT WORDS: ✨

“When I thought my career was over… Joelle saved me.” ♥️

“Best thing I’ve ever experienced.”

“I felt a difference after ONE session.”

Sessions are booked in packs of 4 (1.5 hrs each)
Because real change takes consistency + depth

⚠️ I book up FAST
(But Elisa, my apprentice, has more availability if you want in sooner)

✨ The Psoas: Your Deep Core Muscle ✨

Hi, I’m Joelle 👋
I help people get out of pain through integrated therapy, and the psoas is one of the most important muscles I work with.

What is it?

A deep core muscle connecting your spine to your legs… influencing:

• Posture
• Low back + hips
• Breathing
• Nervous system

When it’s tight, you may feel:

• Low back pain
• Tight hips
• Compression in your spine
• Shallow breathing
• Constant tension or stress

Here’s the key…

The psoas is tied to your fight or flight response.

So if your body doesn’t feel safe,
👉 it won’t let go.

This is why stretching alone isn’t enough.

In my sessions we:

• Release it with support + pressure
• Use gravity, balls and yes… kettlebells 👀
• Restore alignment + posture
• Help your nervous system settle

✨ Less pain. More space. Real change. ✨

📅 I book quickly and work in packages of 4 (1.5 hrs). I also have an apprentice (Elisa) who’s taking in clients.

✨ If you’ve been thinking about booking… this is your sign. ✨

You’ve messaged. You’ve said “I really need this…” …and then life got busy.

Meanwhile your body is still tight, in pain, compensating, asking for attention.

✨ This work is different.
Not just yoga. Not just massage.
This is deep, hands-on therapy that helps your body remember what healthy feels like again.

Hi, I’m Joelle 👋 owner of Inner Peace Yoga.

I support:
• back, neck & shoulder pain
• disc issues & sciatica
• tight hips & psoas
• postural patterns
• jaw, headaches, pelvic floor & nervous system overload

✨ Every session is tailored
✨ Real results (check out our Google reviews 👀)

Sessions are booked in packs of 4 (1.5 hrs each). I book quickly, but if you want in sooner, Elisa (my apprentice) has more availability.

Waking up and your shoulder just… won’t move?

It often starts like this:

You reach overhead… and something catches. You try to hook your bra… and it hurts. Sleeping on that side? Impossible.

Then slowly…
Your shoulder stops moving the way it used to.

This is what many people experience in their 40s and 50s, what’s often labeled as frozen shoulder.

But here’s what I want you to know:

💬 Your body isn’t breaking
💬 It’s adapting
💬 It’s protecting

And pushing through the pain… or completely avoiding movement…
usually keeps the cycle going.

In my work, we don’t force the shoulder.

We listen to the body
We create safety in the nervous system. We release the deeper patterns that are holding you there.

And from there… movement begins to return. Gently. Gradually. Sustainably.

✨ You don’t have to live with this.

My sessions are offered in a package of 4 (this is where the real change happens).
I do book up quickly, but if you’re wanting to get in sooner, Elisa (my apprentice) has more availability and offers beautiful, supportive sessions as well.

This might look simple… but it changes everything.

This is psoas traction.

One of the deepest and most overlooked muscles in the body,
connected to your:
• lower back
• hips
• diaphragm
• nervous system

When it’s tight or holding tension, you might feel:
– low back pain
– hip discomfort
– anxiety or constant “holding”
– that feeling like you can’t fully relax

👉 And stretching alone doesn’t touch it.

This kind of supported traction allows the body to:
✔ release without forcing
✔ feel safe enough to let go
✔ reset deep patterns of tension

This is the work I do in session.

Not just treating symptoms, but getting to the root of what your body is holding.

💫 If you’ve been dealing with pain or tension that keeps coming back…

This might be what you’ve been missing.

I’ve had SO many messages lately asking:

“What exactly do you do in your sessions?”

So here it is 👇

Your first session is a full-body assessment
(not just where it hurts).

We look at:
• posture
• movement patterns
• compensation
• nervous system response

From there, every session is tailored to YOU.

This isn’t a quick stretch and send you home.

This is:
✨ Critical Alignment Therapy
✨ hands-on work
✨ ball + strap therapy
✨ somatic awareness
✨ EFT (if needed)

People often say after just one session:
“I learned more about my body in this than years of other treatments.”

And honestly…
👉 you don’t have to just take my word for it.

Take a minute to check out our Google reviews…..the experiences people share say it better than I ever could 🤍Inner Peace Yoga

And that’s why I book quickly.

✨ I offer tiered pricing (3 options)
✨ And Elisa (my apprentice) has openings if you want in sooner

If you’ve been thinking about booking, now is the time.

Message me and I’ll send details 🤍

Tension in your neck that just won’t go away?

It might not be where you think it is.

A muscle I check in almost every session is the
👉 sternocleidomastoid (SCM)

That long muscle that runs from behind your ear down to your collarbone.

When it’s holding tension, it can show up as:
• neck tightness or pain
• headaches (especially around the temples or eyes)
• jaw tension or clenching
• dizziness or a sense of pressure
• forward head posture
• that constant urge to stretch your neck

And most people try to:
❌ stretch it aggressively
❌ roll it out
❌ ignore it

But the SCM is often tight because it’s overworking, helping you breathe, stabilize, and compensate for deeper imbalances.

So instead of just forcing it to release…we need to understand why it’s working so hard

In my sessions, we look at:
✨ breath patterns
✨ posture + head position
✨ ribcage + diaphragm
✨ nervous system tension
✨ how the whole body is supporting (or not supporting) the neck

Because your neck isn’t the problem…it’s the messenger.

💛 1:1 Therapy Sessions
💛 EFT (tapping)
💛 Tiered pricing options

✨ I book quickly, but Elisa (my apprentice) has availability too!

If your hip has been hurting and nothing seems to be fixing it…
I want you to hear this:

👉 You’re not doing anything wrong
👉 And you’re definitely not alone

I’m seeing SO many women right now with gluteal tendinopathy, especially in perimenopause and menopause.

That outer hip pain? Pain lying on your side? That nagging ache that won’t go away no matter how much you stretch?

It’s not just “tightness.”

Hormonal changes can directly impact tendon health,
which means your body needs a different approach now.

Not more pushing.
Not more aggressive stretching.

✨ It needs support, precision, and understanding

In my sessions, we slow things down and actually listen to your body.

We work with:
• Alignment + posture patterns
• Gentle but effective loading of the tissues
• Releasing compensation patterns
• Nervous system regulation

This is the work that helps your body feel safe again… and start healing.

I offer:
💫 4-session therapy packages (1.5 hrs each)
💫 Tiered pricing options- you pick a price that works with your budget
💫 EFT + nervous system support

I’m booking up quickly, but there are still a few spots.
Elisa has more availability if you’re wanting to get started sooner.

Send me a message and I’ll walk you through everything 💛

There’s a reason your body keeps asking for your attention.

Maybe it’s the tension that never fully leaves.
Maybe it’s the low back, hips, neck, jaw, shoulders, pelvic floor…
Maybe it’s the stress you’ve been carrying for so long that it’s started to feel normal.

At Inner Peace Yoga, I offer private 1:1 sessions that look at the whole body and the whole person.

My private sessions can include:
• Critical Alignment Therapy
• postural and movement assessment
• ball therapy + strap therapy
• traction + release work
• pelvic floor support
• somatic work
• EFT tapping

These sessions come in a pack of 4, and each one is 1.5 hours long.

Your first session is a thorough full-body assessment, from the feet to the head and all the systems in between, so we can start understanding why things are happening, not just trying to chase symptoms.

I also offer tiered pricing, which means there are 3 pricing options to choose from. All 3 include the exact same high-quality care, you simply choose the price point that works best for your budget.

I do tend to book up quickly, but if you’re wanting to get started sooner, Elisa is apprenticing under me and has much more availability right now. She’s a great option if you’d like support sooner rather than later.

If your body has been asking for help, this could be your sign to listen.
Message me if you’d like pricing and open dates. 💛

Why are my private therapy sessions different from most treatments people have tried before?

Because we don’t just treat the symptom.

The body works as a connected chain of systems.

Your feet affect your knees.
Your knees affect your hips.
Your hips affect the pelvic floor.
The pelvic floor affects the spine.
The spine affects the neck.

So when someone comes in with things like:

• back pain
• tight hips
• pelvic floor issues
• neck tension
• plantar fasciitis
• chronic stiffness

We look at the whole body, not just the painful spot.

Your first session is 1.5 hours and includes a full assessment from feet to head, looking at alignment, movement patterns, breath, nervous system regulation, and how everything in the body is working together.

Many people are surprised by how much we discover in that first session.

One client recently said to me:

“Even after the first session I was telling everyone they need to come see you. I couldn’t believe how thorough the assessment was and how much I learned about my body.”

My work combines many approaches I’ve spent years studying:

✨ Critical Alignment Therapy
✨ Somatic alignment work
✨ Ball and strap therapy
✨ Pelvic floor support
✨ Nervous system regulation
✨ EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique)

Sessions are booked in packs of four 1.5-hour sessions so we have time to actually create change in the body.

I also offer tiered pricing, which means there are three pricing options available so people can choose what works for their budget.

If you’d like the pricing and available openings, send me a message.

Our Story

Why the Turtle?

The turtle's whole life is one of steadfastness, effort, and patience. It lives a slow and steady life of "non-doing". We believe this also the life of the yogi. The Yoga teachings say that we must cultivate a long, steady practice to have the maximum result (sah tu dirgha kala nairantaira satkara asevitah dridha bhumih Sutra 1:14). Because of its seemingly wide-eyed, long-lived, carefree attitude the turtle is often thought to be the wisest of souls among the animal kingdom. At Inner Peace, we learn from the turtle and move at our own pace as the turtle does. The turtle takes its wisdom one day at a time - not reacting, simply accepting and moving on in its natural methods.

In many Native American folk legends, the turtle represents the earth mother and she is honored for saving mankind from the Great Flood. She is the immortal mother who stoically, silently carries the heavy burden of man upon her thick back. Many species have thirteen sections to their underbelly some sources say this represents each of the thirteen moons, and moons are a celestial symbol motherhood. Among Far Eastern cultures it was believed that the turtle's back symbolized Heaven and that its underside represented Earth. For them the turtle signified the possibility of uniting Heaven and Earth within one's own life.

There is a saying, "Home is where the heart is" - the turtle is always at home within itself.
