Benefits

Long consultations. In a fast-paced world, it is important to have moments of deeper reflection. The yoga therapy session provides such a reflective moment whereby the therapist supports the client in reviewing and redesigning life habits.

Gaining control. Yoga therapy provides a client with the opportunity to bring the locus of control for health within, so that one can be actively involved in one’s own healing process, and therefore more empowered. This could involve restoring the body to a healthier mode of functioning, or helping the mind free itself from limiting thought patterns.

Bigger tool kit. A client can expect to walk away with techniques that can be applied in daily life. When one has regulatory tools, one feels more confident and more empowered.

Adaptability. In many instances, yoga therapy will complement work being done with other physical and mental health professionals. Because of its holistic character, Yoga is adaptable to most therapeutic situations.
