Yoga Therapy

Students will learn yoga postures that are designed to help develop sound body mechanics. Use of these postures will add strength and flexibility to the body. This class teaches the use of yoga postures for the correction of typical postural problems and how yoga practice can be used as a therapy to enhance postural stability and promote mechanically efficient use of the body. This information is useful both for the massage practitioner for the performance of massage and knowledge of yoga therapy can help the therapist make appropriate suggestions and referrals for their clients interested in the benefits of yoga.
