My Name is Susan Le and I've been practicing Thai Yoga since 2003. I'm a Physical Therapist Assistant, and also incorporate Thai Yoga into my therapy sessions. I am currently attending college to pursue a career in sports/physical medicine.

Thai Yoga is an ancient form of therapeutic healing bodywork which originated in India. It was believed to have been introduced to Thailand over 2500 years ago by Ayurvedic physicians and Buddhist monks. Thai Yoga is also known as “Lazy man’s Yoga” because the practitioner supports the client in stretches that are yoga poses.

In many cases, the client can experience the benefit of poses that would be difficult to achieve unassisted, because it can take years to develop the requisite strength, balance and flexibility to achieve the poses in a solo yoga practice

Clients who have active yoga practices often find that regular Thai yoga therapy sessions enhance their practice, allowing them to stretch, "open" more quickly and avoid injury. The session combines energy balancing, therapeutic stretching, joint mobilization, and assisted yoga poses.

Thai yoga therapy has many benefits including
Stress and pain relief
Better resistance to injury
Improved range of motion
Release of lactic acid and other toxins from areas of accumulation
Toning of internal organs
