Yoga Therapy is the practice of simple movement and the relationships between each segment in your body. We focus on nervous system down regulation and learning to listen and communicate clearly through movement. This supports pain management and healthy long term body mechanics. Each person will find their own individual senses and sensations, proprioception (where you are in space) by way with interoception (feeling where you are in space with/through sensation). Yoga Therapy does not replace Asana/Yoga practice, it supports it and keeps your movement sound and pain free.

Q: Is it worth getting expensive sunglasses? I’m still upset that I lost my favourite pair. A: Most inexpensive sunglasses sold in Canada have adequate UV protection, and those are way better than having nothing to protect your eyes. Pricier sunglasses will often have well-designed optics, lens filters and coatings; well-built, durable and comfortable frames; good warranties; trendy fashions; and brand names. Keeping track of your glasses can be like taking care of your keys or cell phone!

Hearing Loss and Balance
Hearing loss is one of several factors that can cause falls. Individuals who have even a mild degree of hearing loss are three times as likely to experience accidental falls. Studies have shown that wearing hearing aids improves balance compared to an individual who does not wear hearing aids but who has hearing loss. There are three major ideas for why hearing loss can affect our balance: 1) hearing loss causes less awareness of our environment, which means less awareness of people or activities around us; 2) hearing loss decreases spacial awareness, which makes it harder to know where you are compared to your surroundings; and 3) hearing loss uses more brain energy, which means there is less energy for balance.
