Now offered online. Yoga Therapy is a unique application of yoga in which the student/patient, working individually with the therapist, is given a custom-designed practice to address their particular needs. It is a CAM (Complementary and Alternative Medicine) approach, working with other healing modalities including traditional psychotherapy and/or medical treatments. Using movement, postures, sou
nd, breath, visualization, and meditation, yoga therapy can help you:
-Improve mental, physical, and emotional well-being.
-Manage, reduce, or eliminate symptoms that cause suffering.
-Change your relationship to your condition, disorder, or illness. Differences between yoga therapy and a regular yoga class:
-Yoga therapy offers you a personalized daily yoga practice to do at home; most students need only 4-6 classes over an initial 3-month period.
-Yoga therapy is all about you and your personal needs.
-The relationship with your yoga therapist is confidential.
-A yoga therapist has specialized training, well beyond the basic yoga teacher credential.
-Yoga therapy offers the full range of yoga practices, which may include postures and movement, but also may include sound, breath practice, visualization, and meditation.
