Yoga Therapy in Sheffield and Online
What is Yoga Therapy?
A Yoga Therapy session involves the instruction of movement, postures, breathing, meditation and relaxation techniques in order to reduce physical and mental stress, and aid an individual towards attaining or regaining optimal health.
Yoga Therapy takes in to account the connection between the mind, body and breath, and uses techniques to improve health on these levels.
It is a unique path to physical and mental health that is tailored to suit the individual.

Benefits of Yoga Therapy
Therapeutic Yoga can help treat many common ailments, such as back pain, neck ache, stiffness, arthritis, high blood pressure, depression, anxiety, and is specifically helpful in dealing with stress.
Yoga Therapy can improve your own yoga practice by giving you the space to experience how you feel and then respond to that. Learning yoga in a one to one setting can also be helpful for finding modifications to your own practice, especially if you have injuries or disabilities that cannot be dealt with in a group class setting.
One to One Yoga Therapy or Therapeutic Yoga Class.
Yoga therapy lessons are tailored to suit the individual’s needs. Lessons are conducted on a one to one basis in Sheffield or online, although for those not wanting 1-1 sessions, an online Therapeutic Yoga class is also available to attend.
An individual therapeutic Yoga session will begin with a consultation to discuss the reason for attending. The Yoga therapist will then arrange a session to teach the student the use of specific postures, movements, breathing exercises or meditative and relaxation techniques, that are deemed suitable and helpful for the individual.
Through careful examination by the teacher and through continual feedback from the student, a routine is developed to allow the individual to progress on their journey towards complete holistic health.
By providing simple, clear and coherent instructions in the use of movement, postures and breath, the student is guided towards self maintaining optimum health.
As the needs of each person are different, so the practice given will be different for each person. Yoga Therapy is not meant as a substitute for conventional health treatment or practices, but rather, serves as an accompanying practice that helps bring balance back to the whole being. It is an holistic self practice. A return to wholeness.
The first session lasts around 90 minutes. Following sessions are approximately 60 – 75 minutes.
