Walking therapy is an alternative to traditional seated therapy. Some are uncomfortable talking about difficult topics eye-to-eye with a therapist. Walking can provide a sense of comfort and ease. Additionally, walking can help us think in new ways and improve our mood and overall health. Dr. Blandford offers walking therapy when appropriate and desired.
You may be a good fit for walking therapy if you: - Want to get more movement into your day or become more active. - Want to address your mental and physical health at the same time. - See walking outdoors as an easier way for you to think through problems and talk about feelings. - Are reasonably healthy without any major medical concerns that could be significantly impacted by walking.
