Therapeutic Yoga

Therapeutic yoga has a wide spectrum of applications: finding the balance of strength and stretch across a joint makes it well suited for post surgery or injury rehabilitation, return to sport, the prevention of further injuries, and the alleviation of medical issues. Learning to slow down allows us to come into our bodies and be present with the NOW, repatterning our physical and mental landscape- leading us to our higher Self, so you can be in love with all of life.

Therapeutic yoga can help with physical injuries or surgeries such as:

• labral tears

• bulging or ruptured discs

• shoulder impingement

• ACL reconstruction

• microdiscectomy or spinal fusion

• post partum: incontinence, diastasis recti

Injury prevention:

Therapeutic yoga takes the principles of yoga asana (postures) and can combine pranayama (breathing) to affect the nervous and hormonal system, mantra, pratyahara for inner focus, meditation, and more. Traditionally, yoga asana is only one part of a multifaceted medical approach in Ayurvedic medicine. Thus therapeutic yoga can encompass some of the other facets listed above in one of the world’s most ancient types of medicine.
