International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Physiology
Abstract
Yoga therapy has emerged as a structured, individualized therapeutic modality derived from traditional yogic practices and adapted for contemporary healthcare. Unlike general yoga practice aimed at health promotion and disease prevention, yoga therapy involves the targeted application of specific yogic techniques for the management of defined clinical conditions. This review-style editorial examines the conceptual framework, principles, techniques, and clinical applications of yoga therapy, highlighting its holistic foundation and integrative potential. The relevance of yoga therapy within modern medicine and its future prospects in evidence-based healthcare are also discussed.
