MTY Enhances PT Practice
MTY Enhances PT Practice
Professional Yoga Therapy Institute has worked for over 16 years to evolve both yoga and medicine by combining the two into a new expression for licensed healthcare practice-Medical Therapeutic Yoga. We have seen tremendous benefits from this pairing, both for the patient and the practitioner. This is evidenced by the hundreds of testimonials we have collected and by the clear improvement in the lives touched by our students and graduates.
Further evidence of the benefits MTY can bring to physical therapy resides in the statements given by the PTs in our program. Scroll through to see how yoga impacts their practice, their patience and themselves.
