• AYURVEDIC CONSTITUTIONAL ANALYSIS

the traditional yogic approach to health which recognizes that each individual is different because of the unique constellation of elements (earth, air, fire, water) within his/her physical and emotional being. Once this is clearly understood, an appropriate diet, specific meditation and yoga postures can be formulated to help restore balance within the person as a whole.

• NUTRITION

a way of cleansing and building the body according to the principles of Ayurveda. Because of one's constitution, certain foods may help or hurt the body, depending upon how they affect the overall balance of elements. Suggested dietary practice is also adapted to the lifestyle and tastes of the individual.

• HATHA YOGA Personalized Programs

address the particular imbalances present in each case. The postures (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama), and relaxation exercises (meditation, visualization, self-suggestion) are learned gradually, and each student progresses at his/her own pace. The emphasis is on rhythmic breathing, controlled stretch and counterstretch, isolation of muscle control, release of vertebral compression, and direction of blood and energy flow. Classes are small (5-8 people) allowing for maximum individual attention and safety.

intensive whole health training and coordination of additional health care services such as chiropractic, acupuncture, polarity, or massage.

• HYPNOSIS

state of deep listening, rather than some mysterious trance; this is a state of deep relaxation and body-mind communication where negative conditioning (the cause of many addictions) can be re-programmed. All hypnosis is self hypnosis. Therefore, nobody can be made to do anything harmful to themselves or others. The purpose of hypnotherapy is to change negative programming to positive.

• POLARITY

a powerful bodywork system that can help clients to relax and release emotional blocks, through the use of touch to specific points along meridians or pathways of the body. Polarity is effective by itself and as an adjunct to both traditional and holistic modalities. For example, polarity in conjunction with chiropractic care may facilitate better holding of the adjustment.
