Anu incorporates her experience from traditional Physical Therapy and her passion/understanding of the mind-body connection to foster truly integrative therapy. The relationship between the subconscious mind and its direct influence on the health of the body are connected and therefore addressed. In all conditions, the mind and body are not separate.
Anu, an empath, can facilitate a release in the body while shifting perspective in the mind to relieve stress which will help to relax and give space for the body to heal, as long as the mindand body allow the release. The sessions with her are both powerful and empowering as information and awareness of what the body is holding is provided.

A new study published in the Journal of Pain Research concluded that women with fibromyalgia who practiced yoga self-reported a reduction in their physical and psychological symptoms of chronic pain. In the study women practiced yoga twice a week for 75 minutes for eight weeks. Participants completed questionnaires to determine pain intensity before and after the study period. They reported significant reductions in pain and associated symptoms and psychological benefits such as feeling less helpless, being more accepting of their condition and less fearful of current and future symptoms. Previous research showed that women with fibromyalgia have lower-than average levels of cortisol that can contribute to pain, fatigue and stress sensitivity and in this study the saliva of subjects revealed enhanced cortisol levels at the end of the 8 week program.
