I'm Joanne Pineau, a Certified Yoga Therapist (C-IAYT). I've been teaching yoga since 1997 and run a small Yoga Therapy Studio in my home in Thornbury Ontario. Just a short note to say that I got a lot out of the sciatica course (online). I am putting into practice the postures and exercises to alleviate discomfort and strengthen muscles.
I use somatic movements and a therapeutic approach to classic yoga exercises in the Viniyoga Lineage that in part uses the weight of the body to create strength and is also a very effective form of neuro-muscular retraining that alleviates chronic pain and improves physical functioning, posture and mobility.

Thornbury
Report
The province of Ontario has mandated proof of vaccinations to gyms and yoga studios and that includes my studio and classes at St. Georges Parish Hall. I will therefore require upon entry to class proof of vaccination. I greatly appreciate your tolerance and acceptance of this mandate by the government.
Spinal Health
Report
I run group programs and specialty classes focused on a particular topic of concern at different times and locations throughout the year. Some of the programs include postural strength and body mechanics when sitting, walking, lifting and bending to reduce pain and restore functional movement. You can also take a program or series of classes online or in person 1-on-1.
Sciatica
Report
There is no one fix for sciatica. For example in some people bending backwards relieves the pain, for others it makes the pain worse. Both require a different approach. There are often other issues at play as well like scoliosis, arthritis, SI joint or hip pain. How you use your body in daily activities, body mechanics and muscle tone are also contributing factors.
Low Back Program
Report
If you are one of twenty-eight million Canadians who currently suffer from low back pain, there is hope. The Essential Low Back Program: Relieve Pain & Restore Health offers clinically proven relief. In the NIH-funded study which tested this program, 78% of the participants experienced a significant reduction in pain levels in just twelve weeks.
What Others Say
Report
My 2 year experience with Joanne's Therapy Yoga has been very positive for me during my pre and post operative knee surgery. With Joanne's guidance using her yoga techniques daily, I have gained full use of my knee motion. I would highly recommend her classes. As a new student to yoga, I started taking Joanne's Gentle Yoga classes this year and have found them to be extremely beneficial.
