Dealing
with Health Related Problems:
If you are dealing with a health related problem yoga can help
you learn to adapt to and manage any limitations you may be faced
with, enabling you to better understand your needs and relate
to your condition. Through yoga practice
you will increase your confidence and self-esteem.
This will empower you and help you to communicate more effectively
with the relevant professionals and therapists you may encounter.
All of this enables you to lead as normal a life as it is possible
for you to attain.

Yoga
as part of Therapy Management
All yoga is therapeutic. Medical research shows that certain
postures, breathing techniques, relaxation techniques, meditation
and visualisation are beneficial for specific health conditions.
Yoga therapy is complementary to traditional medicine and is
adapted in order to meet your specific needs and requirements,
enabling you to improve the quality of your life.
Personal understanding and empowerment are at the core of being able to deal
with the health issues, which may confront any of us.
An initial consultation is carried out in order to assess your
health and lifestyle. This enables the therapist to assess your
individual needs and to provide an appropriate regime for you.
As a qualified Nurse, Midwife and Health Visitor as well
as a British Wheel of Yoga Teacher and Sports Masseur, I am ideally placed to advise
clients with varied health conditions, to use yoga in a therapeutic
manner.
