Benefits of yoga
Yoga is a time tested practice that brings together physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. Regular practice can improve flexibility, strength, balance and breathing, and help with stress and sleep. It is suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels when poses are chosen and adapted carefully, which is exactly what a physiotherapist trained in fitness can do for you.
Fitness programmes are for general health and fitness. If you have a medical condition, an injury or are pregnant, please tell me first so I can adapt the plan, or start with a physiotherapy assessment.
