What is Yoga Therapy?
One-on-one yoga therapy sessions help you connect your mind, body, and spirit for whole health and wellness. Your yoga therapist will create a personalized plan that targets your health goals and takes into consideration your lifestyle and interests. Yoga may offer relief from common issues such as chronic pain, depression, anxiety, and insomnia. Specific conditions such as cancer, stroke recovery, and arthritis may also be addressed in your yoga therapy plan. Yoga therapy may include movement and/or postures, meditation, visualization, breathwork, and relaxation techniques. The process may mirror some elements from rehabilitation medicine and talk therapy, but yoga therapy stands on its own as a unique and powerful modality for transformative change.
