Yoga Therapy at Sitka Physio & Wellness is led by a certified yoga therapist (C-IAYT) with over 1,500 hours of specialized training focused specifically on the therapeutic benefits of yoga for a wide range of physical, mental, and emotional conditions. Rooted in a holistic, bottom-up approach, yoga therapy emphasizes nervous system regulation by cultivating safety and awareness in the body—helping to release physical tension and allowing the mind to let go of stress and emotional holding patterns. Since about 80% of brain-body communication flows from the body to the brain, this approach honors the body as a primary resource for healing and calming. Sessions include gentle, low-risk movements that lean toward the restorative side of yoga, supported by breathwork (pranayama), meditation, and guided by foundational yogic principles. Whether you’re managing chronic pain, depression, anxiety, trauma, or seeking to reduce stress and find greater ease in body and mind, yoga therapy is personalized to support your unique journey toward resilience and well-being. Your therapist will also provide a tailored home practice designed to support and extend the benefits of each session in your everyday life.
