What is Yoga Therapy?

I have been  asked this question many times. The first time that I ever heard of Yoga therapy was a few years ago. I held a workshop here at  Loredana  Yoga studio. The workshop consisted of an  hour of  Ayurveda practice and basic understanding, and 45 minute of Yoga Therapy and it's benefits. I found it to be so amazing and fascinating, because I suffer from back pain and so many others on this planet do as well. But that was not just it , there 's  so much more you can gain  from this form of yoga.. Typically Yoga Therapy would be a one -on one session.  The yoga therapist will do a physiological assessment of the student  to Taylor a practice appropriate to the student's needs. So here I have a few descriptions  on "Yoga Therapy"

Yoga Therapy is based on the fundamentals  of yoga practices, for people with health challenges.

Yoga therapists prescribe specific Asana or  postures, breathing exercises, for the individual student's needs.

Yoga therapy is among the most effective complementary therapies for several common aliments.The


challenges may be an illness, a temporary condition like pregnancy or childbirth, or a chronic

condition associated with old age or trauma. Yoga Therapy  is also for  students with sport injuries.

Athletes such as runners, swimmers,  and golfers,  to  name a few. Many yoga therapist have helped

service men and women, rehabilitating from PTS  Post Traumatic Syndrome. Yoga therapy adapts the

practice of Yoga to the needs of people with specific or persistent health problems not usually

addressed in a group class.
