The Healing Touch Yoga Therapy

The Healing Touch Yoga Therapy I offer private and group classes. During this time I began practicing yoga as a means to maintain my body for the physical job that I do.

It is my goal to assist you in your self care practices through the tools of yoga therapy bringing awareness to what is, often it's movement patterns or habits that keep us stuck in tension and pain. Since graduating from Sutherland Chan Massage School in 1991 I have been operating a succussful Massage Therapy Practice in Thunder Bay. Wanting to share the benefits of yoga I decided to enroll in a teacher training program with the East to West Yoga Studio in Toronto and became a certified yoga teacher in June 2008. I continued to practice and teach group classes, in 2009 an old injury resurfaced and limited my ability to practice yoga the way I was used to practicing.. In 2010 I enrolled in a Therapeutic Yoga training session and discovered that my limitation was not permanent and that it was from years of compensating movements. Since practicing yoga in pure movement with ease and no pain I have unwound old movement patterns and I am learning to move without pain on and off of my mat. I am excited to continue to study therapeutic yoga this fall and share its amazing benefits with you.

I've been on a hiatus from this page for a while, I am enjoying my new position with Partners in Rehab as a Physio Assistant and am utilizing and integrating my Massage Therapy and Yoga Therapy skill sets plus learning lots of new skills from a great team of PT's and OT's. In the meantime, My website has had some issues that have been fixed and the online studio that I am using changed it's name but it's still the same site. You can check it all out here.

Spring brings New Adventures -

Here we are a year into the reality of Covid-19 and although vaccines are rolling out, (I've got my first one), there is still quite a bit of uncertainty around what our future will look like (as if we ever know?).  Spring is a time of renewal they say, as the landscape thaws, new life will be blos...

Issues with peeing just a little when you laugh, jump, lift. or exert yourself? Pull up in the driveway or put your key in the door and can barely manage to get to the bathroom? These scenarios are not a normal part of aging and can be reduced or eliminated with proper pelvic floor training. Join me over the next 10 weeks for the Pelvic Floor and Deep Core Series to retrain your pelvic floor muscles to be more responsive to do the job they are designed to do. I am living proof that the practices and exercises I will share with you work.
Classes are live streamed and recorded so they will be available when you are.
Pelvic Floor and Deep Core Starts Wednesday Oct 14.
Sign up here for all Fall Live Stream Classes for the price of one. https://app.namastream.com/ #/healing-touch-yoga-therapy/buy/product/19436
