Yoga Therapy and Restorative Yoga
In clinic and at home.
Both Stephanie Loomis, PT and Amy Koch, PT are certified Hatha Yoga instructors and enjoy using yoga asana and meditation in conjunction with their physical therapy programs. Whether it is for a client who is post-injury or surgery , or simply a one-on-one therapeutic Yoga session for wellness, they understand the importance of proper anatomical alignment and bio-mechanics of yoga postures, as well as how to implement them into a program, with and without prior injury. One is never too old, too young, too injured, too imperfect, too tight or too “whatever” to enjoy a guided yoga practice.
Stephanie specializes in Restorative Yoga and utilizes it in the clinic, as well as instructed for home practice, to settle the nervous system and to facilitate the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) as well as to inhibit the “fight or flight” sympathetic nervous system (SNS), which wreaks havoc on our bodies.
This calming, meditative yogic practice is supported by blankets, bolsters and props to simply relax and to create a “floating” sensation of comfort. Results are astounding and it can be performed at home to continue with the practice.
