Yoga Therapy leads to a deep dialogue with the self, helping patients with direct tools to confront the challenges of life, from chronic illness, degenerative disease, psychological trauma and stress to fatigue, anxiety, fear and anger.
With over 30 years of practical experience in Yoga, Shiatsu, Chinese Medicine, Martial Arts and thousands of hours spent treating and teaching, I came to deeply understand the great healing power of Yoga.
Essentially this completely natural approach has profound effect, however success depends on personal involvement and effort from patients. Yoga therapy self empowers, helping the patient to reclaim his/her health and take life into his/her own hands.
Therefore In this way Yoga Therapy is truly holistic leading to health, greater awareness, more balance, less ego and more love.
This 300 hour Yoga Therapy Certification will teach you how to evaluate your patients health using various methods of palpation as well as observation, listening skills, taking detailed case histories and interpreting the signs and symptoms of imbalance and disease.
