From this framework, all are equally important because they are interconnected. In this vein, Yoga therapy uses tools to address specific needs at all levels of being. Each Yoga therapy session or class is tailored to individual or special group needs.

  • Your first session is 75-90 minutes total, and includes 30-45 minutes of physical and overall assessment. Your physical body is thoroughly reviewed for postural imbalances in addition to a comprehensive discussion of your lifestyle and any physical or emotional challenges you are facing.
  • Self Healing - Yoga Therapy relies on the individual to practice at home so that you learn to heal yourself. After your first session, you will be emailed a detailed home practice to address your specific goals and needs. Your home practice will be written according to the lenth of time you are willing to dedicate and can be anywhere from 10 - 45 minutes.
