Yoga Therapy For Common Health Problems is based on the ancient science of yoga and clinical success with patients around the world. For sufferers of certain problems and diseases, such as diabetes Type II, cardio-vascular ailments, back pain, neck pain, addictions, impotency, infertility, sexual disorders, as well as for overall health, the book provides a step-by-step process for treatment. With the help of this book, any person suffering from any of these conditions and others can benefit, correct or cure the disorder leading to better health. Since yoga as a science is not widely known as yet in the world, very few medical professionals are knowledgeable of it or its therapeutic application. Much of what is known has been distorted by religious, cultic and mystical viewpoints. Its scientific character only began being restored in the 1960's. This work comes out of the history, principles, philosophy and practices of Yoga Science. Every topic covered in this book is based on decades of experience in treating chronic health problems and conducting research in some dominant health issues of our time. These findings, therefore, are genuinely claimed and presented in this book. Please read them, apply them, and help others.

In fact, Yoga has an answer for every possible ailment/disease that affects the human race, including some of the deadly ones too, such as Cancer, AIDS, etc. Initially, the Yogic saints developed the Yogasanas by referring to animals, birds, trees and other creatures in order to stretch or relax. There are innumerable Yogasanas discussed in the book. Some of the well-known among them are: Surya Namaskar and its different poses, Uttana Padasana (Stretched leg Pose), Pawana Muktasana (Wind Release Pose), Naukasana (Boat Pose), Chakrasana (Wheel Pose), Padmasana (Lotus Pose), Halasana (Plough Pose), etc. Another salient feature of the book is that there are different sections, such as: Management of Common Diseases through Yoga, Pranayama & Yogic Diet, Yoga for Seniors, Yoga for Women, Yoga for Children & Students, Yoga for Managing Stress, etc. However, it is recommended that Yoga should always be practised under the guidance of a trained Yoga Teacher/Practitioner.

Eight simple and relaxing yoga sequences for fibromyalgia patients looking to manage their pain, alleviate their fatigue, and improve their overall well-being Fibromyalgia is characterized by widespread pain in muscles, ligaments, and tendons, as well as fatigue and multiple tender points (places on the body where slight pressure causes pain). Although mainstream medicine has yet to devise a successful plan for treating fibromyalgia, yoga offers sensible strategies for managing—and sometimes overcoming—the pain. Written by a yoga teacher and suitable for both yoga novices and veterans, this book is grounded in simple movements, breathing techniques, and guided visualization and relaxation sessions. Readers learn to reduce stress and manage fibromyalgia through eight sequences: four for pain relief, one to diminish fatigue and improve sleep, and three for maintaining body awareness and general flexibility. The author’s simple, supportive language and mixture of theory, practice, and the latest scientific data offer hope for one of today's most challenging health conditions.
