About Yoga Therapy (More)
The medical benefits of yoga are well documented, and selected techniques of yoga have good potential in rehabilitation programs. “Yoga therapy” utilizes yoga postures and adapts them to specific musculoskeletal injuries. As some injuries can be aggravated by improper understanding of yoga and physical therapy, it is important that a therapist trained in both yoga and physical therapy manages the individual poses in a personalized yoga rehabilitation program.
