Integrative Yoga Therapy
differs from yoga in that it is focused on the individual student and their needs. It does not ask the student to conform to what is being taught in a class. This allows students of all levels the opportunity for personal growth through their journey to well-being. It provides an experiential approach to healing utilizing all the tools of yoga:
Asana |
Pranayama |
Mantra |
Mudras |
Yoga Nidra |
Meditation |
From a yoga therapy perspective, physical issues are often symptomatic of something that originated at a deeper level in our being and is now trying to get our attention. Even our beliefs about who we are, what our place is in this world, how we fit in, if we are following our dreams or not, can effect us at deeper levels and eventually physically. We often don’t think about it but here are other issues that can eventually effect our bodies:
Stress at work or home |
Emotional turmoil |
Unresolved conflict |
Anger |
Trauma |
Relationship issues |
Integrative Yoga Therapy promotes health and healing at a physical, emotional and spiritual level. It can help with a wide range of issues that affect us in our life because it takes into consideration all aspects of who we are. Quite often people seek out yoga or yoga therapy because of physical issues but it can help with other areas of our health as well. Some of the reasons people have come to work with me in yoga therapy are:
Recovery from surgery or accident |
PTSD |
Yoga/exercise injuries |
Back injuries |
Grief |
Emotional issues/depression |
Family issues |
Private yoga |
Scoliosis |
Body alignment issues |

During the initial consultation with me, we will review your overall health, your health challenges and goals, your energy, stress levels and what areas in your life that you believe lead to stress. In your session you will begin to learn many of the different tools of yoga that you can utilize to heal. All treatment is developed through partnership between you and I to help you succeed in your goals.
