​Namaste, welcome!

Yoga Therapy and Ayurveda are powerful tools for your self-empowerment whether you are recovering from injury or illness or are perfectly healthy and just need a little guidance to make sure you practice in a way to avoid future injury.

"Sandra has helped me so much! What she has prescribed as a yoga therapist has helped me in making my hemiplegic body more whole.  ...Those joint rotations are a blessing for me. I am so grateful for you!"


I have decided to NOT reopen at Revolve Studios at this time.

I can arrange Zoom sessions or limited sessions at your home (within a certain radius).  I am looking for another location near Catonsville.

Yoga Therapy

The yoga therapy components of these sessions are based on my Master of Science in Yoga Therapy degree earned from Maryland University of Integrative Health and from other advanced trainings in Yoga Therapy, Ayurveda, and Shadow Yoga.

Your first (intake) session will involve learning as much about you and your intentions for healing as possible and initial practices taught include breath awareness, the foundation  of my work.

Followup sessions build on each preceding session and it is assumed that you will practice or attempt to practice was was given so that your feedback on your experiences guide our work together.

My sincere hope for each client is that you will be able to understand how your body is communicating to you what it needs for healing.

Ayurveda

Modalities employed:
​Dinacharya (daily routine)
Rtucharya (seasonal shifts)
Mitahara (proper diet for your type or imbalance)
Purvakarma (preparation for Panchakarma, the Ayurvedic cleanse)
Paschatkarma (returning to normal life after Panchakarma)

If you need a referral to a Panchakarma center or an Ayurvedic Doctor who is also a Medical Doctor please view my Resources page (under "More" in the index above).  Please keep in mind that many Indian practitioners may have returned to India and may not be available;  I will do my best to refer to other centers that I may not have personal experience with.

Yoga for Scoliosis

This often serious condition was researched for my Master's Thesis at Maryland University of Integrative Health.  Structural Scoliosis (due to accidents, movement habits, etc) may be positively affected by proper application of asana on a daily basis over a long period of time.  Ideopathic Scoliosis (due to unknown origins) may or may not be easily affected on a structural level but you may be able to strengthen weak muscles and train the mind to become aware of how dysfunctional postural habits affect the perception of pain,  The most severe cases of Scoliosis that are co-morbid with genetic conditions or serious diseases may be out of my scope of practice, please consult with your physician before scheduling your first appointment as his/her recommendations and contraindications must take priority in order to avoid possible harm or progression of your condition.
