Integrating Yoga Therapeutics Into Rehabilitation

I am a new grad about to begin working as a PT mid-January. I come from a yoga background which led me to physical therapy to expand my knowledge and skill set, so it is really a great relief to me to enter into the Evidence-Based sphere with this course under my belt. This course gave me so much inspiration and hope as I trudged through the academic portion of my PT program, and really helped expand the idea of rehabilitation to encompass true biopsychosocial-spiritual care (which is given lip service but not often acted upon). I am excited about the future of healthcare because of this course and because of what the yoga teachings offer us. I feel grateful to have these yogic tools to help guide me as a clinician and to enrich the healing journeys of my patients. Thank you for making this available for free to students--I wouldn't have afforded it otherwise. Thank you, thank you thank you.

As both a physical therapist and yoga teacher it was wonderul to see the overall comprehensive information presented by Matt and Hannah. It is exciting that this information is being presented to students. I wish I had been exposed to this work early on, rather than years into my career !

I greatly enjoyed this course! I learned so much that I have now begun to apply to my own patients. I was very happy about how this course is self-paced so that I could complete it when I had some free time. I am also very appreciative of the instructors and how attentive they were to this course through answering questions whenever one popped up. Thank you again for passing on all of your knowledge!

There is a growing trend of rehab professionals who are integrating yoga practices into their professional practices. Although this current trend seems to be soaring just recently, Matt Taylor has been one of our leaders and pioneers in this area of integrating yoga into rehab in a therapeutic, safe and evidence based manner for decades. This integration may help enhance the patient (and therapist!) experience, improve treatment outcomes by understanding and using a truly biopsychosocial-spiritual approach to care. It can assist in empowering patients to be actively and effectively involved in their own rehab and wellness. I was thrilled to see Hannah Millson and Matt Taylor team up to offer this incredibly affordable online course that includes a thorough, concise and extremely well organized curriculum that introduces the use of yoga methods and philosophy into rehabilitation. The multimedia offerings of videos, audio, pdf handouts, and following along powerpoint lectures provides the learner with a variety of options from which to learn, and keeps the course engaging and interesting. Matt's humour, compassion, wisdom, experience, clarity and kind heartedness does not go unnoticed. I have been integrating yoga into my physical therapy practice since 1998, and I am impressed with this online course and I have been highly recommending it to rehab professionals that are interested in learning more about the "how, what and why" of integrating yoga therapeutics into their professional practice. Thanks Matt and Hannah! Shelly Prosko

This is one of the most complete and useful courses I have taken in the last 10 years. Well-instructed, well-researched evidence-based treatment options for patients with Chronic health issues. I highly recommend this course to any therapists working in Chronic Disease/ Chronic Pain management programs. Thank-you for this excellent on-line experience Matt.

Dr. Matt Taylor and Hannah have created a very comprehensive, easy to navigate, and relevant course that covers the basics of yoga and how to apply the techniques in our own lives and make them part of our rehabilitation sessions. I recommend this course for those that are new to yoga as well as those of us who are more experienced in yoga therapeutics.
