Chronic pain & physical wellbeing
Yoga therapy support for chronic pain that is gentle, adaptive, and grounded in both lived experience and science.
This may be for you if…
• You live with ongoing or fluctuating pain that affects daily life
• You feel disconnected from or frustrated with your body
• You’ve tried treatments that focus only on symptoms, not the whole experience
• You want support that respects your limits and capacity
• You’re looking for a way to relate to your body with more ease and compassion
How I support you
Yoga therapy offers a whole-person approach to chronic pain, working with the nervous system, breath, movement, and awareness in ways that are responsive to pain rather than pushing through it.
Together, we may work with:
• Therapeutic breath-focused movement adapted to how your body feels on the day
• Breath practices that support nervous system regulation
• Meditation and mindfulness techniques offered at a pace that feels safe
• Insights from yoga psychology to help make sense of your experience
What a session can look like
Sessions are paced gently and shaped around what feels supportive for you on the day. There is no expectation to push, perform, or work through pain.
We begin by checking in, allowing space to notice how you’re feeling physically and emotionally. From there, practices are offered as invitations rather than instructions, with choice always at the centre.
You may be guided through movement, breath, or stillness, or you may simply rest. Everything can be adapted, paused, or changed at any point.
A session may include:
• Gentle, adapted breath focused movements
• Breath awareness or regulation practices
• Guided rest or meditation
• Space for reflection and integration
Ways to work with me
Support is offered in a way that can be adapted to your needs, preferences, and capacity. We can explore what feels most appropriate together.
Ways of working may include:
• One-to-one yoga therapy sessions, tailored to your individual experience
• Short-term or ongoing support, depending on what feels right for you
• Online sessions, offering flexibility and continuity of care
If you’d like to explore this approach quietly and in your own time, you’re welcome to start with a short, supportive resource.
