Yoga Therapy
What is Yoga Therapy?
Yoga Therapy is new to the health & wellness field, but it’s a fast-growing modality of health care!
Training & Experience
Cat Taylor | Certified Yoga Therapist IAYT
Yoga Therapists go through a rigorous amount of training which includes 940 hours of education and practicum work. They’re also required to go through a very disciplined scrutiny to become nationally certified and recognized by the International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT).
Education includes everything from anatomy, to disease process and management, to the subtle body. The process of education and practicum takes three years so you can be sure that you’ll be well cared for when you decide to work with a Yoga Therapist.
I’ve completed my education with Yogafit, a nationally recognized Yoga Education Organization, founded by Beth Shaw, one of the yoga industry’s leaders. I’ve also
completed medical shadowing hours with Rachel Marino, NP, founder of Marino Health & Wellness, a local leader in Stem Cell Regeneration treatment.
The Process
When you make the decision to work with a Yoga Therapist you’ll begin with a consultation that includes a thorough health assessment. You may have been e-mailed some assessments to prepare before your consultation which will help your therapist better prepare to ask targeted questions that are going to be meaningful for you. You’ll leave your consultation with one or two practices to take home with you to begin the healing process.
Why you decided to seek the services of a Yoga Therapist will build your sessions, and your sessions will look different each time. Your first session may include some movement (asanas), breath practice (pranayama), affirmations, hand mudras, essential oils, sound therapy, and so much more. You will have homework in-between sessions just as you would were you working with a Physical Therapist or an MD. One thing to remember is that you are always in control!

- Reiki
- Chakra Balancing
- Ayurveda techniques
