While yoga therapy has many benefits, it’s not a quick fix. This therapy has the most impact when it’s used consistently over time. It’s a gentle approach that is well-known for its long-term effects on maintaining emotional well-being.

If you’re suffering from severe mental health issues, its best to use yoga therapy in conjunction with the treatment recommended by your healthcare professional. Yoga therapy should be started slowly and increased over time.

If you have a physical injury, yoga therapy may not be the right choice for you as it involves physical postures. While there are physical ailments that can prevent you from using yoga therapy, the sessions can be adapted to match your physical capabilities. In some cases, your yoga therapist may start you off with one or two physical postures or one breathing exercise before adding more activities to your session. This approach helps you to build your fitness levels and physical capabilities over time.
