Allan Saltzman

I have been practicing yoga for 45 years and eventually developed a line of yoga tools to help with my own practice. My approach to health and well being is largely structural. Lengthen and open the spine, release chronic tensions, relieve strain and distortion and the bodily systems just work better and as they should. Periods of real rest and relaxation are also part of this picture. Some of this work I would call surgery on myself. It is just that these surgical implements do not cut the skin but certainly make some alterations. These tools added a dimension to my practice and a depth that eventually I felt I needed. I started to make more of these tools to share with others and it developed into my business, Yoga Tools, and my website www.yogatools.com. I have written 4 books on the subjects of yoga, health, and well being and over 30 essays, all of which are available for sale from my website. A variety of different therapeutic tools are also available.
