Yoga therapy is defined as the process of empowering individuals to progress towards improved health and well-being through the application, the philosophy, and practice of yoga (International Association of Yoga Therapists).
Yoga therapy does not require that you have done yoga in the past. A typical one yoga class uses the concepts of age old yoga techniques such as breath work and present-moment awareness combined with body awareness exercises. This unique approach blended with principles of ease and pain-free range of motion helps to move an individual towards better body balance. An
extensive and confidential evaluation form is used to design a tailored
program for each participant.
Yoga therapy is quickly becoming a recognized alternative or complement to traditional medical care. In today's fast-paced environment, the healing art of yoga therapy may offer a solution to moving out of pain and into better function to allow you to do the things you love to do.
One yoga's customized approach allows us to work with all types of individuals with different needs. We can work with, but are not limited to, people with musculoskeletal
injuries, chronic illnesses, stress, migraines, athletes looking to improve function or people
that just want to reconnect with their body. One yoga's clients have
the following characteristics in common:
- they want to function better and find more balance in their lives
- they have pain, injury or illness which limit the things they love to do
- they are dedicated and willing to invest in themselves
- they are open-minded and ready to embrace new ideas about how the body and mind interact
