Thai Yoga Massage

Thai Yoga Massage has been used for over 3000 years as an “organic” means to manage pain, stress, tension, boost the immune system, and balance the body energetically. It combines a unique combination of Therapeutic/Restorative Yoga and the Ancient Thai Massage technique of applying slight pressure, rhythmic motion, breathwork and gentle stretching. Working mainly with the fascia of the Body’s internal system and with the central nervous system, this practice provides the recipient with both physical and emotional/mental healing. An hour and a half of sheer bliss!

I personally recommend Patty Burgess, Founder of "Teaching Transitions and Doing Death Differently". She offers the Certified End Of Life Specialist course. >>Click Here<< for more information.

*These courses meet and exceed the recommended standards of the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization (NHPCO) Hospice Training.

Courses, Qualifications & Credentials

Yoga Therapy

Yoga Therapy is rapidly gaining credibility as a successful method of assisting people with either chronic or acute pain. This form of yoga is provided on a one-on-one basis. Often a client is not a Yoga student, but someone who has exhausted all other avenues of mainstream healthcare and is willing to explore this highly successful system of healing. Yoga Therapy addresses the physical and mental/emotional well-being of the individual which is a holistic approach to overall health and wellness and can greatly accelerate recovery and healing.

My Yoga Journey

I began practicing Yoga in the late 1980’s while working in the corporate world. I chose it as a way in which to manage stress. In 2006 I became a Certified Yoga Teacher, trading in my briefcase for a Yoga mat, and began teaching yoga full-time. Years of extensive training with some of the most well-known Yoga teachers such as Seane Corn, Rodney Yee and Baron Baptiste, has given me a solid and diverse understanding of this practice. I’m passionate about teaching people how to do and live Yoga in all of it’s physical and non-physical manifestations.

These can all be arranged with content geared to your needs.
