People with back injuries, issues and concerns need to do things a little bit differently in order to heal and thrive. Not so differently, just a little bit. The good news is that by learning a few new ways of movement, people taking care of their backs can heal and reap the amazing benefits of yoga no matter what kind of class they take. This is where Samantha comes in.
Samantha specializes in back care which includes the lower, middle and upper back as well as neck and shoulders. All of her instruction emphasizes physical therapy-based back care and stems from a strong working knowledge of anatomy and movement. She has worked successfully with students with herniated discs, arthritis, sciatica, joint injuries, spondylolisthesis, disc disease, degeneration, connective tissue tears, muscle strains, etc. She has also experienced several of these herself, as she was born with a back condition that requires special attention and care to remain healthy and strong. Samantha will teach you tips and practices for healing, ones that can be taken into any environment. She has been there, she gets it and she offers an instructional, encouraging, accessible and comforting space to heal.
Each session is 60 minutes and includes a brief conversation about the student's needs and goals, slow-paced postures aligned with the student's needs and goals, and guided reclined meditation to help relax, release tension, decrease inflammation and tune into healing and strength.
