The first session runs for 90 minutes and includes:
-
Health Questionnaire Discussion
-
Your current priorities & goal setting
-
Postural, Breathing and Movement assessment

Guided Restorative Experience

Home practice co-creation
From the second session onwards, the sessions last 60 minutes where we work on refining your home practice, reviewing what’s working and what should be changed whilst revising goals/priorities together.
