Yoga Therapy with Glenda
Real People, Real Bodies, Real Yoga
Your journey to renewed health and vitality begins with that first awareness that you can determine the course of own healing. With yoga therapy, you become a partner in that process.
Yoga therapy is the adaptation of yoga practices for people with health challenges. Yoga therapists prescribe specific regimens of postures (asana), breathing exercises (pranayama), meditation and deep relaxation techniques (Yoga Nidra) customized to your individual needs. Sessions are one-on-one.
Medical research shows that Yoga therapy is among the most effective complementary therapies for several common ailments.
The challenges may be a host of common disease conditions, or a temporary condition like pregnancy or childbirth. Someone might seek yoga therapy to help heal from surgery, or for symptom management of cancer treatments or for any condition such as:
- Stress / Insomnia / Depression / Anxiety /Grief
- Metabolic Syndrome /Diabetes / High blood pressure / Obesity
- Pain management / Fibromyalgia
- Cancer: management of the symptoms of treatment – help with the restoration of health post treatment
- Arthritis
- Asthma
- Hormonal Changes / PMS / Peri-Menopause / Menopause
- IBS symptom management
- Addictions (support during or after treatment)
- Workplace injury / Carpel Tunnel, Repetitive Stress Injuries
- Pregnancy / Childbirth preparation and support
- MS / Parkinson’s Disease / PSP syndrome
….the list goes on….
Many of these conditions can improve with regular attendance in my group classes. However, the nature of your “dis-ease” may indicate that one on one yoga therapy would be more appropriate for a period of time. I always hope that after a few private yoga therapy sessions, and confidence in your body’s ability improves, you would join us in group classes.
We would always honor and work with-in the guidelines of your physician. This is a complimentary practice – welcomed by forward thinking medical providers, in partnership with what does work in traditional modern medicine.
We start with an initial email or phone call (530-409-2997) …. to determine your hopes for our work together and iron out details for our first face to face meeting. From that first meeting we would settle on a schedule, and create an individualized prescription of therapy to address your unique challenges.
Five Session packages are offered to address particular issues.
Prices range from $65 - $125 /hour/session
