Yoga Therapy FAQ
 1. How does Yoga Therapy differ from yoga?
Yoga and Yoga Therapy utilize the same techniques.  A yoga therapist coordinates with medical professionals (doctors, therapists, etc.) and has experience adapting traditional yogic practices to various needs and medical conditions.  For more information, check out our Yoga Therapy services page
2. How is yoga different from other therapies?
Yoga pairs well with physical, behavioral, occupational and speech therapies because it is integrative.  Yoga is a whole-body therapy that works gross and fine motor skills, as well as attention and speech.  Yoga teaches students to self-regulate and stay focused in school, other therapies, and at home.  And of course, yoga is very relaxing.  The skills gained from practicing yoga help focus and calm the mind and body, promoting well-being on all levels.  ​
​3. What are yogic practices?
Yoga uses a number of practices, including meditation, physical postures (or asana), cleansing practices (kriya), breathing exercises (pranayama), and deep relaxation (yoga nidra).  In Yoga Therapy, you are empowered to develop a healthy lifestyle outside of class as well.
4. Is Yoga Therapy appropriate for me or my child?
​Yoga can improve a variety of limitations.  It is a balancing practice and has effects even on opposite conditions (i.e. high and low muscle tone; under and over focus).  There is emerging research on the benefits of yoga for a variety of special needs and disorders.  In general, yoga is a beneficial practice for anyone, regardless of needs.  Students can learn to accommodate their yoga practice to their individual needs with the right tools.   For more information about how yoga may address your specific needs, please contact Erin or give us a call.
5. What is a Yoga for the Special Child® class like?
Each class is tailored to the individual student, working to augment strengths and improve breathing, posture, and movement patterns.  A typical class begins by working with simple chants, which relax and focus the mind and begin the process of mind-body integration.  Next, we work on breathing exercises designed to deepen breathing and calm the mind.  Some children may work on eye exercises and then, we work on yoga poses geared to the child.  We end with a session of deep relaxation, leaving children with a sense of well being.  Kids love coming back for more yoga!  Go here for more information about Yoga for the Special Child.
6. How old does a child have to be before they can start yoga?
Yoga can be practiced from infancy onward.  In fact, early intervention is highly recommended.
​7. What can parents do to support their yogi kids?
​You may choose whether or not to sit in on your child's class.  If you do decide to sit in on class, please try to maintain the calm and quiet atmosphere of the room to help your child relax.  We wholeheartedly encourage parents to take yoga classes too.
8. What should I expect for my first Yoga Therapy appointment?
Expect the first appointment to last about an hour.  Please dress or have your child dressed in loose clothing.
9. How long does a yoga session take?
​It depends on age and ability.  Typically, classes range from 25-60 minutes for kids and 60-90 minutes for adults.
10. How often should I or my child have Yoga Therapy?
​At minimum, twice a week.  This frequency allows the benefits of yoga to be effectively incorporated by the body.
