Why Yoga Therapy for Chronic Pain?
Chronic pain is a multifaceted condition that affects millions, significantly impacting quality of life. Emerging research in neurophysiology and psychoneuroimmunology underscores the effectiveness of yoga therapy in managing chronic pain. By integrating mindful movement, breathwork, and meditation, yoga therapy promotes the release of tension, enhances body awareness, and shifts pain perception. These practices have been shown to downregulate the stress response, reduce inflammation, and alter brain structures associated with pain and emotion regulation, offering a non-pharmacological avenue for pain management.
