Optimal, not perfect posture will create a happy body, mind, and spirit. I'm Joi Dupre and I am passionate about movement and massage as well as creating a space that cultivates physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. I bring my passion, commitment, and knowledge of movement and bodywork to each session and class providing a nurturing, healing, and educative experience.

I am Joi Dupre, a licensed massage therapist (MA59262) with 21 years experience. I received an AS degree in Natural Health with a concentration in Advance Therapeutic Massage from Florida College of Natural Health. Along with graduating summa cum laude, I was awarded the Golden Touch Award for my "Brilliant Performance and Dedication."
Creating freedom from pain and discomfort through an integrative and intelligent approach to massage and movement. Styles are blended to create a session that is specific to your individual needs. 60 -90 minute sessions may be combined with functional movement to re-train the poor posture habits and patterns of compensation that are at the root of your pain and discomfort.
The specialized LYT Yoga method, grounded in the principals of physical therapy and neurodevelopmental training, champions freedom through safer, smarter and more conscious movement patterns. Moving through life in a less than optimal posture can create dysfunction, pain, and discomfort. This creates patterns of compensation that prevent us from living full and energized lives physically, mentally and emotionally.

Joi was recommended by a good friend. I had extreme lower back pain and little mobility in hips and back.
Joi has many types of therapy in her wheelhouse to address whatever ails you.
After just two sessions I was almost 100% back to normal. I was back to golfing the next day spanking the ball all over the course!
I plan on making massage therapy a regular part of my fitness routine and Joi would be my #1 pick to keep me at 100% on and off the golf course! Thx Joi!

I came to the class to become stronger and more flexible. My movements were restricted from a surgery I underwent. My health was deteriorating and the domino effect of other things going wrong was about to happen. I was at a fork in the road, I could go left and continue the complacent lifestyle or I could make a disciplined decision to engage in a healthy direction.
Once I came to the first class I could tell Joi is a total professional and her dedication to optimal form and technique was very apparent. Not being accustomed to yoga I followed her direction as well as I was able in the first class

Joi is a phenomenal yoga instructor! I have struggled with chronic lower back pain and sciatica for many years. Since starting Joi's live classes, I feel my body growing stronger and I believe I've started down the path to relief from my pain. Joi is determined to equip each of her yogis with the knowledge it takes for them to achieve and exceed their goals. Her classes are informative and fun, and I expect I will continue to grow and use the skills I've learned for a lifetime.

I have had a lower left back problem for over 4 years. I cannot sit for long periods without it getting agitated and I need to move and stretch. This has made flying very uncomfortable. I went to Joi and had 1 session. I had an up coming flight and it wasn’t until halfway thru my flight that I realized I had not one issue. The same on the way home. I give Joi full credit as this was such a relief ! She is well worth a visit and I will continue to see her . AMAZING results

Six months ago I got an MRI to rule out a structural tear. Clean MRI, but no explanation for not being able to put weight on my knee without pain. “Come back in 6 months if pain doesn’t go away.” I was limited to what I could do for exercise. I no longer had my outlets- dance, fishing, riding horses. On came the depression, along with weight increase and more unspecified pain. I tried some osteopathic therapies, bought a very expensive mattress and then landed myself at the Chiropractor. Still no relief and fighting with insurance to authorize an MRI on my lower back. Desperate for a change

I have been taking Joi’s classes and getting massages for about 3 months now. We started with one into class and a 2 hour massage and evaluation. We talked about what my physical problems are and what I need to do to help myself.
I have 14 herniated disc’s in my back, have developed scoliosis in the thorax, had frozen shoulder and really bad feet. My balance was horrible.
Three months later I have less pain, have lost 15 pounds, put on some muscle and my balance is getting better. Most of the time my shoulder is pain free and when it bothers me I get a massage and it is good.

Joi is truly amazing! After just one massage I was pain free and had more mobility and energy! She is a remarkable massage therapist and yoga instructor. She listens to you and can read your body’s ailments. I felt like my body was “reborn” after receiving an hour massage. I highly recommend Joi, she is the BEST!

Joi is extremely knowledgeable, professional and caring. I am a dental hygienist with chronic neck pain. I have had injections for my herniated disks that last a few months but the pain always comes back. Joi is the only therapist that has been able to help alleviate my pain completely. She knows exactly what and where the problem is simply by touch and feel. She truly has healing hands. I am so grateful to have found her. She's stuck with me FOREVER!

Amazing Therapeutic Massage!
What a blessing having found Joi Dupre as my massage therapist. I have been looking for just the right form of massage for quite a while now. From the very first conversation with Joi I had a feeling I would be in good hands, she was kind and very accommodating. I had a lot of pain/stiffness in my shoulders and upper back. Joi helped me get rid of those pains in just 2 sessions which was amazing since before this I would have pain for months and months and not much helped consistently. Her touch is fantastic, she knows exactly where to press without me telling her

Joi is an incredible yoga instructor. Every time I attended her class, I felt so peaceful and at home. I'd come into the studio, set up my mat, grab my props, settle down, take a deep breath and slip into another world. For an hour and a half, I forgot about everything that was weighing on me and only thought about my body, movements and breath. I left feeling light, energized and rested. I only got to practice with Joi for a short amount of time, but her classes helped me grow physically, mentally and spiritually. She made me fall in love with yoga!

Joi Dupre is the ultimate professional and knows her stuff regarding therapeutic massage. I initially went to her to help me through a rotator cuff injury. Her intense work on my shoulder eliminated me needing cortisone shots as well as surgery. I continued to see her about back issues. She regularly put me back together and allowed me to continue my active lifestyle with golf, running, and working out. I miss her terribly here in Atlanta, and have yet to find someone as good as her. Her expertise in technique enabled her to provide the heavy pressure that I needed. I would highly recommend

Joi is a highly skilled and exceptionally empathetic healer. She has a way of zeroing in on whatever is causing you pain, and then using various techniques to help you feel better. I go to her to help me with muscle soreness, joint pain, and restricted mobility, and she never disappoints. I tried 5-6 other therapists before finding Joi, but the wait was definitely worth it - Joi is the best!
