Meet Our Founder
Joe Cianciulli |
Founder of Yupaichani Center for Healing
​Ayurvedic Practitioner • South American Medical Lineage Holder • Licensed Clinical Bodyworker
​
Joe Cianciulli is one of the few practitioners in North America trained in both classical Ayurvedic medicine and a rare South American lineage of abdominal organ realignment—a system traditionally guarded and passed only through apprenticeship.
His work is not massage.
It is a corrective, medical-rooted method designed to realign the organs, reset the nervous system, and restore hormonal and digestive balance.
​
A Background Rooted in Precision and Performance
​
Joe’s early career as a professional ballet dancer, opera singer, and pianist gave him a unique command of the human body—its structure, its tension patterns, and its energetic capacity.
This foundation led him to integrative medicine, where his training includes:
-
Degree in Speech-Language Pathology
-
10 years of vocal pedagogy + somatic work
-
Three-year clinical apprenticeship under renowned Ayurvedic physician Dr. Alpa Bhatt
-
Licensure in bodywork, Marma therapy, and cupping
-
Private apprenticeship in Ecuadorian abdominal realignment, a fifth-generation lineage taught only in two other North American clinics
​
One of the Only Practitioners Offering This Integrated System
​
Joe combines:
-
Ayurvedic diagnostics & therapeutic bodywork
-
South American abdominal organ realignment
-
Marma (neurological acupressure) therapy
-
Energetic correction & organ detox
-
Nervous system recalibration
-
Education for long-term self-alignment
This approach produces transformations many clients describe as “the first real relief in years.”​
​
​
Healing is not about chasing symptoms.
It is about restoring the body’s original architecture—physical, emotional, and energetic.
“I’m not here to treat symptoms—I’m here to help your body remember how to heal.”
— Joe Cianciulli
