Frequently Asked Questions

  • Sessions take place at our dedicated Wellness Centre in Bedale or on line via Zoom. I recommend a course of sessions that take place at times to suit your needs, this may be weekly, fortnightly or monthly. In order to maximise the therapy sessions, commitment to home practice is needed- you will be provided with a home practice together with recordings of mediations/relaxations as required.

  • In order to ensure that Yoga Therapy can support you, I offer a free 30min consultation before your first session, there will be a comprehensive health and lifestyle form to complete prior to our session together, this will be 90mins long. This will include assessment together with an in depth discussion finding out about your energy levels, sleep patterns, diet, previous medical conditions and lifestyle. Your personalised practice which will be written out and given to you may include breathing techniques, yoga poses, relaxation and mindfulness techniques.

  • Initial Session: 90 minutes — £80

What People Are Saying…

  • “I couldn't believe the difference the yoga therapy made. Yvonne tailored the exercises to fit my needs, personality and practice preferences. The exercises could easily be incorporated into my day too. I practiced regularly and the improvement was measurable.”

    — Helen, Yoga Therapy Client

  • “This therapy was much more than I thought it would be.  I was expecting some poses which would help with my diverticulitis but it went much deeper than that.  I had to think about myself more and found I was using my brain and learning to listen to my body.”

    — Judy, Yoga Therapy Client

  • “I came to Yoga Therapy to improve strength in my legs, the teaching was great and the exercises were individually designed to help strengthen my body. I enjoyed doing the home practice and found a good improvement after the 5 sessions.”
