Yoga Therapy

What is yoga therapy?

Modern science is just beginning to research and understand how the body and mind work together to impact an individual's health, but Yoga and other complementary eastern sciences, such as Ayurveda, have long understood this connection. Yoga therapy provides a holistic pathway to feeling better physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Yoga therapists meet people where they are, connecting them to their innate healing potential by empowering them to improve their own ability to self-regulate the mind-body system. Therapy sessions are unique because they can address every aspect of an individual and their life, rather than just certain body parts or systems. Yoga therapists tailor objectives and plans to each individual based on their personal goals and abilities. In fact, yoga therapy can help people who can't move at all, as well as fully active individuals!

In short, yoga therapy equips us with a comprehensive toolkit, yoking both ancient and modern wisdom, to holistically support resilience in the mind-body system.

Lexa Chernin is a NAMA certified Ayurvedic Yoga Therapist, which means that Ayurvedic principles are coupled with hands-on yoga therapy to fully support the healing process. Clients are given Ayurvedic lifestyle, diet and herbal suggestions along with yoga therapy to promote health and well-being from all angles. For complete details about Ayurveda, see here.

Lexa’s approach to yoga therapy is one that gently, meticulously and dynamically decompresses the spine from the root to the top. These profoundly healing one-on-one sessions are for folks who are seeking release from pain, stress, and tension on all levels. Specialized techniques are used to facilitate a very deep release that works from the inside out, with the centerline of the body - the spine - as the focus. Since the spine is the central axis of the body, as well as the conduit of consciousness and the container of karma, the results of opening the spine are multi-layered, including physical healing, life transformation, and inner revelation. Sessions are blissful and deeply healing.
