Yoga therapy in naturopathy is a scientifically structured and holistic healing approach that uses the therapeutic aspects of yoga to support the body’s natural ability to heal and maintain balance. It involves personalized practices of asanas (physical postures), pranayama (breathing exercises), meditation, and relaxation techniques that are specifically designed to address individual health conditions.
In naturopathic treatment, yoga therapy plays a key role in managing lifestyle-related disorders such as diabetes, hypertension, obesity, anxiety, depression, and musculoskeletal problems. It helps improve flexibility, strengthen the body, regulate hormonal functions, and calm the nervous system. More than just physical exercise, yoga therapy in naturopathy is a preventive and curative tool that harmonizes the body, mind, and breath—promoting overall health, emotional stability, and a balanced, disease-free life.
