Yoga therapy is the adaptation of yoga practices for people with health considerations. It can aid in the alleviation of many different ailments, including back pain, hypertension, heart conditions, asthma, diabetes, hyperacidity, IBS, cancer, MS, ME, migraine, RSI and stress. Yoga therapy uses physical postures, breathing practices, relaxation techniques and meditation to help restore body/mind balance and promote natural healing. Once you have learned the practices appropriate to your condition you will be able to use them to care for your own health. Contrary to popular myth, you do not have to be fit or flexible to benefit from yoga or yoga therapy. The Yoga Biomedical Trust is a registered charity (no. 285265), established in 1983 to facilitate the integrated growth of yoga therapy in the UK. A leader in its field, both nationally and internationally, the Trust provides yoga therapy to the public and carries out yoga therapy research. Its yoga therapists are qualified yoga teachers who have undergone two years of further, specialist training. The Trust offers consultations and classes at the NHS Kentish Town Health Centre (London) and elsewhere.
