The difficulty is that most clients who are given stretches to do on their

own between sessions, very rarely will.

This can lead to a

decrease in mobility of

certain joints, and can

often leave them

susceptible to

muscular

imbalances,

impaired

performance,

altered posture

or even injury.

How Does Thai Yoga Therapy Fit In?

Thai Yoga Therapy provides a unique opportunity to work with active clients on improving their range of motion and addressing areas of imbalance.

For practitioners who are also Fitness Professionals we can combine both areas of expertise, and offer a very unique service to our clients focused on developing greater mobility as well as strength or endurance.

Thai Yoga Therapy can ultimately help active people and athletes achieve their desired fitness goals, develop sport-specific skills and move with greater ease throughout everyday life.

So personal trainers: keep challenging your clients towards their fitness goals, but make sure you remember to help them with mobility too!
