Yoga Therapy for the Nervous System, Degenerative Disease & Pain Clinic | ONLINE
The Yoga Therapy for the Nervous System, Degenerative Disease & Pain Clinic is an exceptional module in which you will be taken through the intricacies of Yoga Therapy for the nervous system, degenerative disease and pain management for nerve and chronic pain.
In addition, you will learn from clients’s real stories during live presentations guided by our C-IAYT teachers.
The latest work in this field directs us towards the possible connection between the physiological changes triggered by emotional stimuli – nervous system, hormonal and immune changes – that make up the fight-or-flight reaction to threat. Ultimately, the body mounts a stress response, but the mind might be unaware: “The physiology of stress eats away at our bodies not because it has outlived its usefulness but because we may no longer have the competence to recognise its signals.”
