If you think joint pain is just part of getting older… think again.

 

In this episode, I sit down with Jeff Bailey - founder of Avita Yoga and author of the upcoming book Mobility for Life: Healthy Joints, Strong Bones, and a Peaceful Mind - to talk about a radically different approach to joint health, healing, and pain relief after 50.

 

After a devastating ski accident at 50 left Jeff with a wrecked hip and grim medical predictions, Jeff turned his pain into purpose by developing a practice that helps restore mobility and joint function - without surgery, without extreme stretching, and without feeling like a pretzel in spandex.

 

We cover everything from why stretching isn’t the answer, to how compression actually heals your joints, to what you should be doing right now to bulletproof your hips, shoulders, knees, and spine for the long haul.

 

Whether you’re dealing with joint pain, facing a possible replacement, or just want to stay strong, mobile, and independent for decades to come - this one’s for you.

 

🔥 What You’ll Learn:

·      Why joint degeneration isn’t just a normal part of aging

·      The surprising reason stretching may be doing more harm than good

·      How pressure (not pain) promotes joint healing

·      What makes Avita Yoga radically different from traditional yoga

·      The ONE skill you need to practice to regain lost mobility 

·      How to tell the difference between healing sensation and harmful pain

·      Practical tips for joint prehab, rehab, and long-term mobility
