Description
Structural Yoga Therapy provides a comprehensive approach to using yoga for complete balance and healing. Mukunda Stiles begins by exploring the spiritual philosophy of yoga, its branches, and what to consider when choosing a practice. He also shares his understanding of anatomy and kinesiology to help you understand how each asana affects your body.
This book introduces 24 Structural Yoga asanas, teaching "body-reading" to identify muscular imbalances and joint mobility techniques to strengthen muscles. You'll learn how to synthesize a personalized program to optimize health and healing. The result is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to use yoga in physical therapy, myofascial release techniques, or other forms of massage.
