Mandy has studied backcare and scoliosis extensively, training with some of the country’s most influential teachers such as Alison West, Deboroh Wolk, Rachel Jesien, Dr. Loren Fishman and Elise Browning Miller. She is currently working with clients on an individual basis and in a small group class format. If you suffer from generalized back pain, hyper-kyphosis, hyper-lordosis, herniated discs, spondylolisthesis, osteoporosis, degenerative disc disease or scoliosis, Mandy can design a specialized yoga practice or a strength training practice to help you find greater balance, ease and muscle tone.
Please be aware that, due to the nature of these sessions, the first private session often involves a great deal of talk. Mandy will need a complete health history, understanding of your back concerns, and level of pain. From there she’ll spend some time explaining what is actually happening in your body. Both of these things are imperative to your healing. Mandy can give you the tools, but it is up to you to incorporate them into your life. The more you understand the source of your discomfort, the more easily you’ll be able to adapt not only your yoga practice, but all of your movement/posture habits.
The group Yoga Therapy for Backcare, Yoga Therapy for Scoliosis, and Spine Smart Strength Training classes here at Wellness in Motion do require pre-registration, as each class is limited to only 5-6 students. This limit is in place to make sure Mandy can give you each individualized attention and help you meet your needs.
If you are interested in scheduling a session with Mandy, please send an email to wellnessinmotionstudio@gmail.com with a bit of information about your back concerns. You can also find more information on Mandy’s Yoga Therapy website.
