How Yoga Therapy Can Help You
About Yoga Therapy
YOU ARE UNIQUE
- there is no one else with the same temperament, genetics, family, friends, education and collection of experiences. You enjoy living an active life, and know that the choices you make today will affect your health and fitness in the weeks, months and years to come.
But for whatever reason, you are feeling more pain, tightness, tension or strain. What you've been doing doesn't seem to help anymore, and you're stuck. You're not ready to give up, and are now looking for someone who will work with you toward your goals, taking into account your personality, activities, needs and desires.
I don't see you as a series of broken parts needing to be fixed, but as an individual who can use some help working toward your goals.
Your story doesn't need to define you. Change is always possible, and you have the ability to change your story at any time. As you learn to listen to your body and inner wisdom, you will become aware of the patterns that are causing tension, strain or pain. We will work together to create new patterns that evoke strength, stability and freedom of movement. Whether you are dealing with the changing needs of an aging body, preparing for or recovering from surgery, or have been prevented by pain from doing the activities you enjoy...
....I CAN HELP YOU WRITE A NEW STORY.
Therapeutic yoga is appropriate for people of all ages and fitness
levels. The awareness-based approach respects and accommodates any
physical issues or limitations that are present. Whether your goal is to
work with a specific injury or issue, or to improve your overall health
and fitness, I can help you move towards your goals. Although the work
takes place on a physical plane, it finds its way into the spirit, and
people find that they are better able to deal with stress and anxiety,
and to respond to life's challenges with clarity instead of reacting
blindly.
Yoga therapy is an effective complement to massage therapy, osteopathy, naturopathy and chiropractic therapy.
In a yoga therapy session, we will discuss your issues and your goals in
order for me to have a clear understanding of what you want and how I
can best help you. I will then teach you some movements that will
address your specific needs. At the end of the session you will receive a
written program for you to practice at home. This homework will be an
important part of your progress.
