Hi, I'm Sara Merrick-Albano, yoga therapist at In Waves Yoga based in Connecticut. I help people use yoga to manage their chronic health conditions.
I work with people who have physical conditions like back pain and arthritis, and mental conditions like anxiety, depression, and addiction. My specialty is autoimmune conditions where I teach clients yoga practices that address fatigue, decrease intensity of flares, and manage chronic pain.
My teaching is non-dogmatic and does not use standard protocols. I don't teach "yoga for low back pain" or "yoga for anxiety." Instead, I work within a framework to customize each yoga practice for the individual in front of me, with a focus on what works. The result is a client-driven practice invites balance in the body and mind, both in the practice and in life off the mat.
