Healing Yoga Therapy

The art of gentle persistence…

For those seeking healing through yoga:

Yoga Therapy is a self-empowering process where the care-seeker, along with the Yoga Therapist, explores a well-defined practice that alleviates suffering in a non-invasive way. Depending on the illness, Yoga Therapy can not only be preventative and curative, but help manage the illness, or facilitate healing on all levels.

Certified Yoga Therapists work with the client in 12 one-hour sessions. After the initial 3 sessions, client and therapist together decide if the therapy is proving effective, and whether or not to continue.

Yoga Mountain Inc. is a charter member of the International Association of Yoga Therapists since 2008. Gail Walsh has certified Yoga Teachers to specialize as Yoga Therapists in this field since 2005.

Gail Bentley Walsh is approved by Oxford Health plans and HIP, NY as an Alternative Health Care Provider since 1998.

Gail Bentley Walsh and Lynn Milstein published a study about the Yoga Mountain therapeutic yoga program in the Rockland BOCES School System in the supplement to the IAYT Journal in 2007.

The cost is $65 per hour.
