For desk workers with neck, shoulder and upper back pain who think they're not flexible
Know which stretch fixes which tight spot in your neck and shoulders, and why — no flexibility needed
The 3pm Neck & Shoulder Reset is a live 45-minute Zoom workshop with a before-and-after desk check, so you feel the difference before you log off.
It's 3pm. The ache has crept across your neck and shoulders and up into your upper back, and you're pushing through it, the way you do every back-to-back Zoom day.
You've tried the stretch lists. You've saved the reels. Maybe you tried yoga once, felt stiff and out of place, and decided you're just not flexible. And somewhere underneath, you've started to think it's your fault.
I'm going to ask you for 45 minutes and $25 (the founding price for the first five places). In return, you'll finally understand which stretch is for which tight spot, why it works, and whether it's working, in plain words, with cameras optional.
I've taught yoga for 8 years, including desk classes for companies, and I had this same office neck pain myself.
In my twenties I had the neck pain you're feeling at 3pm. I know from the inside what fixed it, and it wasn't a longer list of stretches. It was understanding what each one was for.
Since then I've taught yoga for 8 years, including corporate desk classes, and I've watched how people relax when someone finally explains a stretch in a way that makes sense. This workshop is built around that.
If there's one thing I know about desk pain, it's this: 'nothing helps long term' isn't your fault. Nobody ever explained which stretch is for which spot.
Imagine if you could:
- Know exactly which stretch to reach for when your neck tightens, and why it helps
- Do your five minutes at 3pm on a Zoom day without anyone on the call noticing
- Feel the difference at your desk straight away, instead of wondering whether anything is working
- Stop saving stretch reels you never do, because you finally have one small routine you understand
- Spot the sitting habits (cross-legged, tucked up on your chair) that have been feeding the ache
Finish the workday comfortable, and stop blaming yourself.
Why does it feel like nothing helps long term?
Three things usually stand in the way:
I've done this before and nothing lasts.
One session won't cure it, and I won't pretend it will. But you leave knowing which stretch is for which spot, plus a one-page card to repeat it at your desk, so you can keep it going on your own.
I'll look foolish. I'm just not flexible.
Cameras are optional and no flexibility is needed. The routine is built for people who think they can't do it, and it's led by a teacher who had the same office neck pain herself.
Why pay when YouTube is free?
Free lists tell you what to do. This tells you why each stretch is for which spot, and you check that it works before you log off.
How the 45 minutes run: the Reset Method
The whole method fits inside one workshop, in four steps, in this order.
Check it
0:00 to 0:08. A simple desk test (a neck turn and a shoulder reach, scored by feel from 1 to 10) gives you a 'before' to compare against.
Find the spot
0:08 to 0:18. You work out where your ache actually lives, so you know which stretch is for you.
Fix it, and know why
0:18 to 0:35. The five-minute neck, shoulder and upper back routine, done together, with a plain reason for every stretch.
Check it again, and keep it
0:35 to 0:45. You repeat the desk test, compare your scores, and leave knowing how to repeat it on your own.
Forty-five minutes. Four steps. You feel the difference before you log off.
Here's some of what you'll discover
- Which stretch is for which tight spot in your neck and shoulders, and the plain reason behind each one
- The 1-to-10 desk test that shows you in minutes whether a stretch is working, so you're not guessing
- The sitting habit you don't notice (cross-legged, or tucked up on your chair) that keeps feeding the ache
- Why the stretches you do in the morning can feel long gone by 3pm, and what to do at your desk instead
- Why you save stretch reels and never do them, and the one small thing to do in their place
What you get
One live workshop, a small group of 5 to 8, and everything you need to repeat it on your own.
The live workshop
45 minutes on Zoom, Wednesday 2 December, 12:30pm ET. The 5-minute neck, shoulder and upper back routine, done together, with a plain reason for each stretch and which tight spot it's for.
The before-and-after desk check
A simple desk test at the start and again at the end, scored by feel, so you know whether it worked.
Your pack
A short pre-work page and a pack to fill in during the session.
The one-page card
Which stretch fixes which spot, plus a note on the cross-legged or tucked-in sitting habits that feed the ache. I send it to you by the end of the day.
Why it's $25 now, and $39 after
The first five places are founding places at $25. After the first five buyers, or after 30 November, whichever comes first, the price goes to $39.
Comparable neck and shoulder workshops run roughly $20 to $85 per person. I've priced this inside that range on purpose: a decision you can make today, without needing anyone's sign-off.
This workshop is new, and the first five people help me shape it. That's why the founding price is lower.
$25
now
$39
after
One payment. Your confirmation email follows when you book.
Two promises, so there's no risk in trying it
If the desk check shows no change: email me within 24 hours of the workshop and I'll refund you in full.
If your plans change: you get a full refund up to 48 hours before the workshop, no questions asked.
You've got two choices
Carry on as you are: another list, another saved reel, and the ache arriving at 3pm again while you tell yourself it's you.
Spend 45 minutes finding out which stretch is for which spot, and why, and feel the difference before you log off.
Which one would you rather be doing on Wednesday 2 December?
Only 5 founding places at $25. The price rises to $39 after 5 buyers or on 30 November, whichever comes first.
You don't need to be flexible. You don't need to be disciplined. You need 45 minutes and someone to finally explain it in a way that makes sense.
I'd love to have you in the room.

P.S. Cameras are optional, you can do everything from your chair, and if the desk check shows no change you can have your money back.
P.P.S. The $25 founding price is for the first 5 places only. After that, or after 30 November, it's $39.
