Experience the Fusion of Physiotherapy and Yoga!
Welcome to PhysioYoga at Maximum Potential Physiotherapy, where we blend the therapeutic benefits of physiotherapy with the holistic approach of yoga. Our one-on-one PhysioYoga sessions are tailored to your unique needs, your body, and your goals. Whether you’re a seasoned yogi or a beginner, we’re here to guide you on your journey toward improved physical and mental well-being.
PhysioYoga offers a multitude of benefits, including:
PhysioYoga harnesses the power of your own body weight to build functional strength. This approach goes beyond traditional weightlifting by focusing on movements that mirror your daily activities.
Balance is a crucial component of both sports performance and daily life. Our specialized balance training in PhysioYoga helps improve your stability, coordination, and body awareness. This can not only enhance your performance in various physical activities but also significantly reduce the risk of injuries and falls.
Flexibility is more than just being able to touch your toes. It’s about maintaining a full range of motion in all your joints, which is vital for optimal function. Our flexibility exercises in PhysioYoga aim to gently stretch your muscles and improve joint mobility.
Habitual patterns of movement can lead to muscle imbalances and areas of weakness over time. PhysioYoga introduces a variety of novel movements to break these patterns and challenge your body in new ways.
Breathing is a natural process, but many of us don’t utilize our breath to its full potential. In PhysioYoga, we place a strong emphasis on breath awareness. By learning to control your breath, you can help deactivate a pain-sensitized nervous system, reduce stress, and improve your body’s physiological response to exercise.
PhysioYoga is more than just a physical practice. It’s a holistic approach that encourages mindful movement. This involves being fully present and aware during each movement, which can lead to better body awareness, improved focus, and a deeper connection between your mind, body, and spirit.
PhysioYoga at Maximum Potential Physiotherapy is:
We use props such as blocks, bolsters, straps, and blankets to make poses accessible, regardless of your current capabilities.
We offer modifications and progressions to fit your body’s strengths, limitations, and needs.
We provide goal-oriented individualized routines to optimize movement in all regions of your body.
Expect adjustments implementing physiotherapy skills, such as myofascial and muscle release techniques, needling, cupping, to combine therapeutic intervention with yoga practice.
All poses are designed to be transferable from the clinic setting to the comfort of your own home, making yoga a part of your life too! PhysioYoga sessions are currently offered on a one-on-one basis and are billable through insurance. We hope to offer group sessions soon for the added benefit of cultivating community.
Whether you’re looking to enhance your current yoga practice, recover from an injury, or simply want to try something new, PhysioYoga at Maximum Potential Physiotherapy is waiting for you. Book an appointment with one of our experienced physiotherapists today, and embark on your PhysioYoga journey!
