Yoga therapy widens the focus to you as a whole being, rather than only the narrow focus on the symptoms of your ailment or concern. It recognises that the human state can be influenced by a range of factors not just the use of one joint, for example.
Yoga therapy utilises solutions that have been tried and tested for thousands of years, and couples them with a knowledge of western science such as neuro psychology, the nervous system and anatomy.
It can compliment traditional Western therapeutic interventions such as physiotherapy and counselling.
A collaborative process focused on understanding your unique body, patterns, and needs
What to expect in a yoga therapy assessment?
A discussion about your relevant history, lifestyle and patterns
Structural and energetcic assessment- I will look. and sometimes touch with permission, to understand the mechanics of your body, where you may be holding tension and understand better where you may be blocked energetically
Movement and breath awarness- an opportunity to meet you exactly where you are, without trying to force anything
Feedback from myself as to where you are at now and where I would be able to help you be, through working with me.
An assessment is a 90 minutes comphrensive intervention and comes with an investment of £75.
Yoga therapy is different from a yoga class or private lesson. It is a personalised therapeutic approach that blends ancient yogic wisdom with modern science, working towards a shared intention.
My work is informed by neuroscience, the nervous system and anatomy, alongside traditional yogic models such as the pancha kosha model, the chakra system, kleshas, gunas, pranavayus and doshas.
Sessions take place in a calm, supportive space, with lighting, temperature and sound adapted to your needs.
Each session is unique and may include movement, breathwork, meditation or visualisation, and guided relaxation.
Yoga therapy sessions are one-to-one, tailored to you, and last 60 minutes. The investment is £60.
