How Yoga Therapists Approach Health

Yoga therapy practices are informed by ancient wisdom and modern science, which provides a unique approach to holistic wellness. Clients receive individual, personalized care, in turn encouraging them to be active in their road to healing and recovery.

Yoga therapy goes beyond addressing only physical health concerns. It is a multi-faceted practice, and it can be used to improve clients’ physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health.

On the path to healing, yoga therapists serve as our clients’ guides. We are trained in the therapeutic application of techniques such as asana, pranayama, chanting, philosophy, meditation, and more. Not only that, but we learn about anatomy and a variety of health conditions. This wide array of knowledge enables us to create unique regimens that benefit each of our clients.
