Clinical Applications
of Therapeutic Yoga, taught by Trudy Messer PT, OCS, RYT, CKTP, CFMT, on
April 15 received rave reviews. Due to its popularity, this course will be
offered again on Friday, October 21 in the Training Room at Upstate AHEC.
The four-hour introductory course was designed to assist
clinicians in understanding what therapeutic yoga is and how it relates to the
treatment of patients. An
evidenced-based approach to therapeutic yoga was presented, as well as how to
initiate appropriate effective treatment focused on therapeutic exercise and
breathing techniques. This course
included a combination of didactic and practical learning sessions.
“Trudy was an EXCELLENT Instructor,” commented one
participant, “I have been going to yoga classes on and off for years and Trudy
not only explained the appropriate techniques (that I did not know), but she
tied it into the muscle imbalances and had practical applications for patients
with different problems. And she demonstrated modifications for each pose
in addition to the benefits of each pose. Her class was evidenced-based as
well. I plan on attending one of her yoga classes. I would love to
take more courses from Trudy. Thank you!”
