WHAT IS YOGA THERAPY?
Yoga therapy is the process of empowering individuals toward improved health and well-being through the application of the philosophy and practices of yoga. The benefits of yoga therapy include increase in mobility, pain relief and overall mindfulness.
The International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT) updated the official definition to: Yoga therapy is the professional application of the principles and practices of yoga to promote health and well-being within a therapeutic relationship that includes personalized assessment, goal setting, lifestyle management, and yoga practices for individuals or small groups.
Yoga therapy is an integrative field that works to compliment western medicine and it is also fueled by the growing body of scientific evidence to support mind-body practices.

UPDATE! In June 2020, IAYT updated the official definition of yoga therapy to: Yoga therapy is the professional application of the principles and practices of yoga to promote health and well-being within a therapeutic relationship that includes personalized assessment, goal setting, lifestyle management, and yoga practices for individuals or small groups. What do you think of this definition?
Yoga therapy is really a fantastic alternative way of healing.
I never seen anyone talk with their toes before, i like your enthusiasm Ann. Namaste, and may the force always be with you!

Love how you explain yoga therapy and it's such an important niche that requires so much more training and knowledge (even the Yoga Alliance doesn't allow teachers to use the term unless they have specific physical therapy training for yoga therapy! Would love to see more yoga therapy videos from you. :)
More to come, Jaime! I am in the filming stage right now to get back into weekly videos:) Any specific topics or questions?
