What is Yoga Therapy
An integrated approach to yoga therapy combines ancient yoga philosophy with modern medical science to treat the whole person through personalised movement, breathwork, and mindfulness that complement conventional healthcare.
Yoga operates on the premise that the human body extends beyond physical matter, conceptualising it as a system of five sheaths termed the Pancakosa. This framework underpins yoga's distinct pathological model, wherein clinical interventions are prescribed according to the specific layer that needs healing.
The therapies complement your ongoing medical treatment and are not meant to substitute it.
Developed at the SVYASA center in Bangalore and rooted in authentic yoga texts, these therapies are safe to practice. A key benefit of these yoga therapies is that, unlike pharmaceutical interventions, these holistic therapies carry no risk of adverse side effects. To ensure optimal care, plans are personalised during an initial consultation and coordinated alongside your doctor's medical reports.
Why choose YT
Standard healthcare often treats symptoms in isolation. Yoga therapy focuses on you as a whole person, addressing the root causes of distress across three primary pillars:
For Physical Distress & Pain: Relieves chronic lower back pain, arthritis, and stiffness by retraining body mechanics and unloading pressure from strained muscles. (Example: Using supported pelvic tilts to relieve spinal pressure).
For Mental & Emotional Distress: Calms chronic stress, burnout, and acute anxiety by shifting your brain out of a constant "fight-or-flight" survival state. (Example: Learning slow, exhale-focused breathing to stop a panic attack in its tracks).
For Psychosomatic Disorders: Interrupts the cycle where emotional stress manifests as physical symptoms like IBS, tension headaches, or fibromyalgia. (Example: Using deep relaxation techniques like Yoga Nidra to soothe a stress-reactive digestive system).
WHO is it for?
Yoga therapy is designed for individuals seeking a collaborative, self-empowered approach to healthcare. It is perfect for you if:
You are managing chronic pain, structural injuries, or recovering from surgery.
You live with anxiety, depression, PTSD, insomnia, or severe professional burnout.
You experience stress-triggered physical conditions like IBS, hypertension, or tension migraines.
No yoga experience is required. It is fully adaptable to all ages, body types, fitness levels, and physical limitations.
HOW does it work?
We do not use a one-size-fits-all routine. Your therapeutic journey follows a safe, structured process:
Holistic Assessment: We evaluate your physical alignment, breathing patterns, stress triggers, lifestyle habits, and medical history.
Customized Plan: We co-create a personalized toolkit of pain-free movement, targeted breathing exercises, and nervous system regulation techniques.
Empowered Self-Care: You will receive short, practical daily practices to do at home, giving you the tools to manage your own long-term health.
WHERE do sessions take place?
To fit your schedule, lifestyle, and physical comfort, therapy sessions are available in multiple formats:
Your Home: In-home therapy sessions are available for clients seeking care in the comfort of their own space.
In-Studio / In-Clinic: One-on-one sessions in a private, quiet, and fully equipped therapeutic space. (TBC)
Online / Virtual Care: Secure, live video consultations from the comfort and privacy of your own home.
Corporate / Group Workshops: Tailored wellness programs hosted directly at workplaces or community spaces to manage collective stress. Please see the bookings page for more details.
WHEN should you see a Yoga Therapist?
You should consider booking a session when:
Conventional treatments are helping, but you want a holistic practice to complement your medical care.
You feel disconnected from your body or stuck in a cycle of stress and physical fatigue.
You want proactive, preventative self-care tools to maintain your health before minor symptoms escalate into major illnesses.
