What is Yoga Therapy? Yoga Therapy comes from the ancient traditions of Yoga and Ayurveda, a system of traditional medicine native to India. The primary purpose is to provide tools to improve or manage conditions that interfere with daily function and limit the ability to enjoy a full life. Yoga therapy can help with many conditions. Musculoskeletal conditions- - tight or chronically contracted muscles - muscle weakness - skeletal misalignment related to chronically contracted muscles - poor posture Physiological conditions- - arthritis - fibromyalgia - chronic fatigue syndrome - auto immune conditions such as Lupus or MS.
