Description

Niamh Moloney (PhD, MManipTh, BPhysio, SMISCP) is a Specialist Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist, Yoga Teacher and Pain Researcher. She practices in Guernsey, in the Channel Islands, but also holds an Honorary Fellow position with Macquarie University, Sydney, where she was previously a Senior Lecturer. A passionate advocate of evidence-based practice, she has over 50 peer-reviewed publications from her pain-related research. Her increasing appreciation of how yoga philosophy and practices can help address some of the complex aspects of pain and its care has led her to integrate yoga into her clinical practice and has ultimately inspired the writing of this book. She runs pain education and yoga courses for people with persistent pain, and teaches widely to healthcare professionals. Marnie Hartman (DPT, CSCS, RYT) is a Doctor of Physical Therapy, a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and Registered Yoga Teacher. Her drive for compassionate, authentic interactions and connection to the good in all humans and the wild led her to a simple life and challenging practice in the bush community of Haines, Alaska. It was here that she first developed an interest in learning how to care for those in persistent pain. She quickly realized the supportive container that yoga held for people engaging in pain care. She has incorporated pain science education and yoga as part of her clinical care and teaching for nearly a decade. Marnie owns and operates a private physical therapy and yoga practice, and has been an instructor for the International Spine and Pain Institute, and an Education Contributor for Yoga Medicine.
