Physical Therapy
Healing from an injury or illness is a highly personal experience. The Roots approach is to treat the whole person rather than an individual body part.

Rehabilitation

specialty yoga classes range from exploring movement in a safe and welcoming environment to tailored programs that meet fitness, mobility, and performance goals.
We offer beginner classes, core and pelvic floor-focused yoga, traditional vinyasa flow, queer yoga, community yoga (cost is by donation), prenatal yoga, yoga for healthy aging, and so much more. Our yoga instructors are trained to teach students of all shapes, sizes, backgrounds, and health histories in a safe and enjoyable way.
