Exclusive continuing education for physical therapists, kinesiologists, and all rehabilitation therapists

With Carina Raisman - B.Sc, Yoga Therapist, E-RYT500, ANQ, RITMA

Designed for physical therapists, kinesiologists, and rehabilitation clinicians who wish to enrich their approach with tools based on posture, breathing, and nervous system modulation.

No prior yoga experience required: all content is taught in a clinical, functional manner and is directly applicable to professional practice.

A model that is fully compatible with your current tools and easily integrates with your assessments, exercise progressions, and treatment plans.

Two people are holding an anatomical model of the human skeleton, a woman and a man. The woman is wearing clothing with a skeleton pattern, and the scene appears to be taking place indoors.

Why this training?

  • Persistent pain and respiratory dysfunction do not always respond to a strictly biomechanical interpretation. They require a comprehensive and functional approach.

  • Carina's therapeutic yoga approach balances muscle tone, alignment, breathing, and the nervous system.

  • A reproducible clinical model that can be immediately applied in a professional setting.

What this training is not

What you will master

The parasympathetic posture

  • Optimize venous and lymphatic return

  • Reduce excessive sympathetic tone

  • Use clinically applicable vagal stimulation strategies

The link between posture, breathing, and the nervous system

  • Quickly assess respiratory compensation

  • Integrating breathing as a structured therapeutic tool

  • Mobilizing diaphragms from a functional perspective

Practical and applicable tools

  • Accessible exercises

  • Reproducible sequences

  • Case studies + guided practice

It is not:

  • yoga teacher training

  • an alternative approach outside the clinical setting

  • an esoteric method

It is:

a structured integration of movement, breathing, and autonomous modulation in modern rehabilitation.

A recognized and effective approach

  • Recognized for continuing education credits for physical therapists and kinesiologists.

  • Approach aligned with contemporary data on persistent pain and autonomic regulation.

  • Compatible with all musculoskeletal approaches.

  • Approach used with hundreds of clients.

  • I finally found an approach that explains why some patients don't progress despite doing good exercises. Understanding the parasympathetic posture and the role of the diaphragms has completely transformed the way I assess patients. Since this training, I've been getting faster results in persistent cases.

    Sophie L.

  • Carina teaches respiratory anatomy and nervous system modulation with exceptional clarity. I was able to integrate her tools the very next day: simple breathing tests, postural adjustments, and highly effective sequences. This training should be offered in all rehabilitation programs.

About Carina Raisman

B.Sc, Yoga Therapist, E-RYT500, ANQ, RITMA

Founder and visionary of Yoga ReSource

Carina Raisman has been a yoga therapist and instructor for over 20 years. With a bachelor's degree in microbiology and immunology (McGill) and training in pharmacology, homeopathy, and herbal therapies in Montpellier, France, she uniquely combines biomedical science and modern yoga therapy.

Her expertise covers:

  • functional biomechanics,

  • breathing and modulation of the autonomic nervous system,

  • the parasympathetic posture and the regulation of persistent cases.

Today, Carina is dedicated to bridging the gap between modern medicine and yoga therapy.
Through research, interdisciplinary collaboration, and clinician training, she works to integrate the principles of therapeutic yoga into the healthcare system, making this approach accessible, effective, and sustainable.

As the head of Yoga ReSource—School & Clinic of Therapeutic Yoga, Carina imparts a grounded, precise, and deeply human approach to teaching. Her teaching emphasizes alignment, respiratory function, modulation of the nervous system, and the art of guiding the body toward its natural healing potential.

Purposely limited supervision to ensure educational quality and clinical integration.

✺ FAQ ✺

  • Yes. Carina's approach is based on biomechanics, functional breathing, and modulation of the autonomic nervous system. It perfectly complements physiotherapy techniques by providing a clear framework for improving posture, muscle tone, venous/lymphatic return, and nervous system regulation.

    • It is a clinical training program focused on rehabilitation.
      The concepts are taught from the perspective of:

      • biomechanics,

      • respiratory efficiency,

      • sympathetic/parasympathetic tone,

      • modulation of the nervous system.

      The exercises are simple, reproducible, and designed to be integrated into a treatment plan.

  • No.
    No technical prerequisites or yoga experience are necessary.
    Everything is taught in terms of function, posture, and therapeutic applications, whether or not you practice yoga.

  • Yes.
    The approach is cross-functional and complementary.
    The tools can be integrated into:

    • your postural assessments,

    • your exercise progress,

    • your respiratory interventions,

    • your MSK or neurological treatment plans.

    • Rapid respiratory assessment tests.

    • Reading of the parasympathetic posture.

    • Exercises to mobilize the diaphragms.

    • Simple sequences to reduce sympathetic tone.

    • Tools to support circulation, breathing, digestion, and sleep.

  • It allows:

    • improve venous and lymphatic return,

    • reduce inflammatory proteins,

    • to activate the vagus nerve,

    • to reduce protective reactions,

    • to speed up recovery in persistent cases.

    It is a powerful clinical lever for breaking the tension-pain cycle.

  • This training is given by Carina Raisman, a recognized trainer in therapeutic yoga.
    Depending on the participant's professional association or order, it can be added:
