Yoga Therapy

Yoga Therapy is a unique approach to health that utilises the ancient science of yoga to treat individuals in personalised one to one sessions.

The therapeutic approach of Yoga Therapy aims to empower the individual with simple tools they can use on a daily basis at home, to improve well being, manage chronic pain, deal with symptoms of illness or disease and manage stress or anxiety. The beauty and uniqueness of yoga therapy is that we create a bespoke practice together, based on your individual needs.

Healing is not about fixing the body. It’s about coming into a right relationship with it’ — Donna Farhi

Yoga therapy is yoga in its deepest and most purposeful form.

Yoga therapy is not a fitness practice or a flexibility class, but a carefully tailored therapeutic approach that draws on thousands of years of yogic knowledge to support your physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing.

I completed a Graduate Certificate in Yoga Therapy through the Yoga Therapy Institute in Sydney, a year of specialised clinical training in the assessment and adaptation of yoga practices for therapeutic purposes, and am currently working under mentorship as I continue to develop and deepen my practice. This training sits alongside nearly twenty years of immersion in the yoga teaching and thirty years of practice, and informs every session I offer.

Yoga therapy integrates physical postures, breathwork, meditation, yoga nidra, and relaxation techniques, drawing on the full breadth of the yogic tradition rather than any single aspect of it. Each session is tailored specifically to you - your body, your history, your symptoms, and your goals. We work together to develop a practice that is genuinely yours, one that may support symptom relief, recovery from injury, or simply a more easeful relationship with your body and nervous system.

Yoga therapy is a complementary health approach it is not a substitute for medical diagnosis or treatment, and works particularly well as part of a coordinated care team alongside physiotherapy, psychotherapy, nutrition, or counselling.

Sessions can be adjusted in alignment with your GP or psychologist's clinical observations and goals, and a minimum of three sessions is recommended to allow the work to build meaningfully over time.

Yoga therapy may offer particular support for women navigating hormonal transitions — including pregnancy, postpartum recovery, perimenopause, and menopause — as well as chronic pain, injury recovery, anxiety, stress, and nervous system dysregulation. Read more
