Remedial Yoga Therapist

A Remedial Yoga Therapist provides yoga instruction to treat clients with a range of health issues.

Remedial Yoga Therapists should have strong physical skills and be able to work with clients with individualised needs. It’s important that you can understand their unique circumstances and adapt your programs to suit their needs. Remedial Yoga Therapists must have excellent communication skills and good interpersonal abilities.
