About this treatment
What this treatment is designed to do
Yoga therapy is the professional application of yogic principles and practices to promote health and well-being within a therapeutic relationship. Unlike general yoga classes, yoga therapy is individualized and tailored to address specific health conditions, delivered by trained yoga therapists (C-IAYT) who understand anatomy, physiology, and pathology.
Yoga therapists assess each person's condition and create customized programs using appropriate combinations of physical postures, breathing techniques, meditation, relaxation, and lifestyle recommendations. The practice is adapted to the person's abilities and limitations, making it accessible for people with chronic illness, injury, or disability.
Yoga therapy is used for chronic pain, cardiovascular disease, respiratory conditions, anxiety, depression, PTSD, cancer recovery, and many other conditions. The evidence base is growing rapidly, with research supporting benefits across physical and mental health domains. It empowers people with self-care tools they can use throughout their lives.
