Functional Yoga Therapy
Your Pathway Towards Wholeness



The Guest House
Being human is like a guest house.
Each morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness
comes as an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all!

Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still treat each guest honorably.

He may be clearing you out for
some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame,
the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.

Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.

Rumi

Your Personal Session

"Yoga Therapy focuses on health and wellness at all levels of the individual: physical, psychological and spiritual. Yoga Therapy focuses on the path of yoga as a healing journey that brings balance to the body and mind thru an experiential understanding of the true self."

The goal of the Functional Yoga Therapist is to help you manage your condition, restore your balance, increase your vitality, and re-awaken to your essential nature.

Your personal session begins with either an email (you can begin by filling out the Intake Form) or a telephone call. Although based in Tucson, Arizona for in-person private sessions, Functional Yoga Therapy also does remote consultations primarily by telephone with the adjunct of email. Your initial inquiry and telephone call is no charge.

The next step is a thorough assessment session. This assessment includes your intake form, a body scan and then a thorough postural and breath analysis. At this time we'll look at your specific areas of concern, doing further testing of range of motion and muscle strength determination to these areas. In addition, an ayurvedic assessment will be done to get a more thorough view of your needs. You will leave this session with a plan in place to begin your healing path.

The goal of the Functional Yoga Therapist is NOT to keep you as a private client indefinitely. The goal, instead, is to guide you in your own healing empowerment and reconnection with the goodness of your life. Each client's needs are different. Some clients will only need to be seen 2 to 3 times, while others may need longer.

Each session is $65 and will take approximately 60 - 75 minutes. Come prepared to learn new things about yourself as you release the old patterns that no longer fit your new goals.

The goal of Functional Yoga Therapy is to empower your healing process; thus becoming a partner in your movement towards self-discovery and healing on all levels: physical, energetic, mental, emotional, and spiritual.
