YOGA THERAPY
What is yoga therapy?
Yoga therapy is a holistic modality that focuses on an individual's specific condition and aims to restore their state of health, vitality, and overall wellness. It combines elements from both Eastern and Western approaches to well-being, drawing from traditions such as Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, Kundalini yoga, and meditation. By identifying imbalances unique to each individual, yoga therapist recommends specific yogic tools, lifestyle interventions, energy healing, and more to help achieve harmony. It is an integrative and complementary form of therapy that promotes physical, mental, and emotional health.
What does a typical yoga therapy session look like?
A typical yoga therapy session is conducted on a one-to-one basis. It begins with a detailed consultation to understand the individual's health situation, encompassing physical, mental, and spiritual aspects. Based on this assessment, the yoga therapist recommends specific interventions and provides support. The session includes a practice of yoga and may also incorporate energy healing as an integral part of the treatment. After the yoga therapy session, clients should feel inspired and gain clarity about their path towards wellness.
Who is yoga therapy for?
Yoga therapy is beneficial for anyone seeking to improve their health—be it physical, mental, or spiritual—using holistic modalities such as Kundalini yoga, meditation, yogic tools, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and more.
