Yoga Therapy
| Yoga tailored to address your individual needs. Therapy: to take care of or heal. The major difference between yoga and yoga therapy is the patient-practitioner relationship—yoga therapy is usually one-on-one. A yoga therapist designs an individual practice for the patient/client to work on particular issues or difficulties. This is quite different from yoga classes, which guide participants in general yoga practice aimed at overall fitness. |
