Yoga Therapy for Healthcare Integration
A Complementary, Evidence-Informed Approach to Patient Care
Yoga Therapy is a personalized, holistic modality that integrates the tools of traditional yoga — including movement, breath regulation, and mindfulness — with modern principles from anatomy, physiology, neuroscience, and psychology. It is designed to support individuals facing a wide range of physical, mental, and emotional health challenges.
​
Unlike group yoga instruction, Yoga Therapy is a one-on-one or small-group intervention. Sessions are tailored to each client’s specific needs, functional capacity, and clinical context, and may be used as a complementary practice alongside conventional medical treatment, physical therapy, or psychotherapy.
​
Core components of Yoga Therapy may include:
​
-
Adapted therapeutic postures and movement (asana) for mobility, strength, and pain modulation
-
Breath training (pranayama) to regulate the autonomic nervous system and reduce symptoms of stress, anxiety, or fatigue
-
Guided relaxation, mindfulness, and meditative practices to support emotional regulation and cognitive clarity
-
Lifestyle coaching aligned with yogic philosophy and contemporary behavioral health principles
​
Yoga Therapy has been shown in research to support the management of conditions such as:
​
-
Chronic pain (e.g., low back pain, arthritis, fibromyalgia)
-
Post-surgical recovery and rehabilitation
-
Anxiety, depression, PTSD, and stress-related disorders
-
Neurological conditions (e.g., Parkinson’s, MS)
-
Cardiovascular, respiratory, and metabolic conditions
-
Sleep disturbances and fatigue
