This is a detailed and comprehensive Yoga Therapy course wherein the lifestyle and yogic management of diseases is taught in a practical and simple manner for easy understanding and teaching.
This course will qualify you to become an extremely capable and confident Yoga Therapist to handle cases.
Introduction of the Course
Yoga is a centuries old therapy that has been proven to be effective for reducing stress, depression, anxiety, insomnia, stress-related illnesses, chronic pain and more.
Yoga’s elements – breathing exercises, gentle stretching, meditation and movement – are effective in the treatment of many health conditions and promote well-being. Yoga’s effect on chronic pain is especially powerful as it allows practitioners to connect to the natural healing power of the body.
This connection helps to help the body heal itself and reduce the physical and emotional impact of chronic pain.
The history of yoga therapy is fascinating. The term, ‘Yoga Therapy’ was coined by Swami Kuvalyananda in 1920’s in Kaivalyadhama, lonavala, India, he believed that a practice such as yoga would be effective in healing the physical body and restoring harmony to the spirit. To prove his point, he invited noted scientists to his studio to witness the workings of his therapy. They were amazed at the results and soon yoga became popular in the West. Many studies have proven that yoga therapy can help patients to manage a variety of physical conditions, including back pain, heart disease, diabetes, stress and more.
Yoga therapy, sometimes called restorative yoga or integrative yoga, is a growing field of complementary health care that involves applying yoga and the theory of “body, mind, spirit” to meet the needs of patients of all ages and conditions.
Yoga is strong and slow medicine. The key to successful Yoga Therapy is an incremental approach, which tends to be safer and more effective than more aggressive strategies.
If you are looking for a way to improve your prospects and learn new skills, this combination of online and on site learning is the perfect option for you.
