What is yoga therapy?
Yoga therapy uses the tools of yoga—physical practices, stress-reduction techniques (including breathwork and mindfulness), and yoga psychology and teachings—in a 1:1 setting to help you develop custom, individualized practices for greater well-being. It’s a holistic, complementary, mind-body-spirit approach to wellness that works on every level to nurture more contentment, connection, peacefulness, ease and joy in life.
Whether you’re working with anxiety, chronic pain, illness, a specific injury or physical condition, a sense of being “stuck” or “blocked” in your personal or spiritual growth, or simply looking to find ways to reduce stress and explore healthy lifestyle shifts, yoga therapy can support your journey.
Sessions are private, personalized, and tailored to meet your needs.
Who is yoga therapy for?
Yoga therapy is appropriate for just about anyone—all ages and levels of fitness, for anyone struggling with stress, illness, pain, “stuckness” or challenging life situation, and also for those who would simply like to explore the practice of yoga more deeply in their lives.
Conditions supported by yoga therapy include:
Stress, Anxiety, Mental Health
Pain Care
Sleep struggles
Injury/Surgery Recovery
Illness Support/Recovery
Life Changes
Why yoga therapy?
No matter what challenging situation you face—injury, illness, major transition, life circumstance or need for a lifestyle shift—the most challenging aspect is often managing the stress that surrounds it. As the symptoms of stress take hold, it’s easy to become disconnected from yourself, which in turn causes suffering on many levels. Yoga therapy is a highly individualized, self-empowering process that works as a supplemental healing modality. While yoga therapy can uniquely address specific physical issues, its real power is in helping you work more skillfully with the stress surrounding your circumstances, getting “unstuck,” and connecting more easily and more often with your highest self.
What's a session like?
Yoga therapy sessions can focus on a specific physical issue, a desired lifestyle change, stress reduction or some other situation or goal. Time is provided to discuss your challenges, intentions and objectives, and explore applicable, customized practices and techniques. Yoga therapy sessions are different for everyone and are based on your unique needs and goals, but all are designed to ultimately reconnect you with yourself and empower you to make small but consistent positive changes that lead to greater health, well-being, peace and improved quality of life.
