Pelvic Yoga Therapy for the Whole Woman

The title perfectly describes this intelligent and cohesive yoga therapy approach to pelvic health. Cheri artfully combines modern science, somatic exploration and the deeper aspects of yoga in a comprehensive program that surpasses mere physical relief. Her step-by-step guidelines also gently lead to empowerment and deep inner healing. -- Leila Stuart, international yoga therapy trainer and co-author of Pathways to a Centered Body with Donna Farhi
