Sessions typically range from 60 to 90 minutes, depending on your needs and preferences.
Loose-fitting, comfortable clothing like yoga pants, sweatpants, and a t-shirt are ideal. You'll likely move around during the session, so avoid restrictive clothing.
While generally safe, it's always best to consult your doctor before a session if you have any concerns, especially if you are pregnant, have any injuries, or have certain medical conditions.
