WHY IT HELPS YOU
Yoga Therapy: What is It?
It is a personalized and one-on-one session that is designed specifically to take into account your health problems. Under the supervision of certified Yoga Therapist Grethe Liverud, you get a personalized Yoga practice involving the use of gentle movements, breathing exercises, mindfulness, and relaxation techniques aimed at healing your body.
As opposed to regular yoga classes, Yoga Therapy combines not only a personalized Yoga practice but breathing and meditation practices too, which are designed with your current physical injuries and/or limitations in mind. During each session Grethe will ask you questions about your body and how the previous session's practice plan felt and this will inform the evolution of your practice, which may optimize your recovery from injury, while gently stretching and strengthening the problem areas. Think of it as having a therapeutically designed exercise and stretching program for those who prefer Yoga over regular weight and exercise training.
Grethe treats each person individually, realizing that there are no two identical bodies.
Yoga Therapy helps with the following health concerns:
- Chronic pain & low back pain
- Stress and anxiety
- Injuries recovery & arthritis
- Balance, flexibility, and physical mobility
- Regulation of nervous system & wellness
How we work
Yoga Therapy Toronto
Every session is shaped around your body, not a fixed routine. Your Yoga Therapist looks at your movement, breathing, and goals to build a plan that actually fits what you need.
A Special Treatment
Yoga therapy is not only about physical exercises, but also about an approach that combines the use of postures, breathing techniques, and meditation in order to deal with and treat different health issues.
Strength & Flexibility
Quite often our Health Haven clients prefer to practice yoga in order to build up their muscle strength and cope with some typical problems such as lower back pain.
Flexibility, Strength & Stress
Advantages range from increasing flexibility and strength to stress reduction and mental clarity which promotes harmony in between body, mind and soul.
Mind-Body Connection
The idea is to improve flexibility, make a work at mind-body connection, reduce stress, increase mobility and improve breathing techniques of the clients.
A Customized Program
Together with a certified Yoga Therapist Grethe Liverud, you will receive a customized program based on the use of gentle movements, breathing techniques, mindfulness and relaxation.
