Occupational Therapy + Yoga

occupational therapy yoga laura statonYoga and Occupational Therapy have a natural affinity for one another. Both disciplines promote improved physical and functional outcomes and used together create a dynamic state of improved wellness.

Yoga is a movement and breath based language, which brings stretch and strength to tight muscles. Occupational Therapy assesses the environment and uses rehabilitation techniques to improve daily function and increase home safety.

In combination, Occupational Therapy and Yoga address the physical, functional and environmental need to increase strength and function. The yoga will aim to address the structural, and the OT will address the environmental factors and physical barriers.

Solutions may include the use of yoga props such as belts & blocks to increase the range of tight joints, decrease pain and increase postural stability. Other solutions may be found in the immediate home environment or the use of adaptive equipment to increase daily function.
