Back Health

Over 80% of all men and women in America will suffer acute back pain. Much of the back pain we suffer with on a daily basis can be prevented with understanding the movement of the spine, muscles of support, and how they are meant to be used. We will explore functional daily movement to prevent injury, reduce pain, and to manage back health. There is so much we can do to stay out of pain and avoid the frustration, debilitation, and loss of quality of life due to back pain.

Myofacial Release- Reduce muscle pain…
The fascia in our body is much like ‘saran wrap’ that surrounds, connects, and runs through the muscles that creates a web or chain that holds them together. This fascia can become injured, over-stretched, bruised, and the result can be a build up of tissue, scarring, limiting movement, and pain. During this class we will grow an understanding of what fascia is and how to do exercises and self massage to begin to smooth out the fascia to relieve pain. 

Restorative Yoga - Relax and restore…
Find yourself surrendering into relaxing support. Restorative yoga uses blankets, bolsters, straps to support the body allowing it to drift into a feeling of security and peace. Still the mind, deeply relax, balance the nervous system, enhance flexibility, boost the immune system.

Somatic Movement Yoga
During our daily lives we create movement connections between the brain and the body, some healthy, some less healthy. Many of these become good habits, and many others bad habits. Because of these ‘habits’ we may limit our performance, we may hold unnecessary tension (neck, shoulders), we may create an armor or repressive actions. Somatic movements are different than most forms of exercise. They are smooth, slow, easy and pleasurable to do (even for those with chronic pain or injury). They result in a freedom of movement and an ease of pain.
For the athlete, it brings new awareness, depth, power, performance to your sport.
