Follow on Google News | ‘One’ Yoga Therapy Centre Opens In LondonYoga Biomedical Trust, UK’s leading yoga therapy body that promotes research into yoga for the treatment and prevention of health problems, announces the opening of One, a new centre to feature some of the most acclaimed authorities in its field.
By: Yoga Biomedical Trust Everyone from stressed bankers to women trying to conceive is catching on to the benefits of yoga therapy, a fusion of deep breathing, invigorating postures and self-help. This version of the ancient Indian practice is gaining credence within the medical community as a complementary therapy for helping with a range of issues, such as depression and anxiety, through to fertility, menopause and asthma. Robin Monro, director of the Yoga Biomedical Trust, believes that yoga therapy is one of the few treatments that genuinely offers a holistic cure: “If you are working on stress for example, and focus on the body alone, you’re not addressing the thought patterns that cause it. And if you deal only with the mental side of things, you’re ignoring the biochemical and physiological changes that emotional trauma can bring. Yoga therapy addresses both aspects of the problem.” One will host an Open Day for the public on Saturday 25th September, offering free taster sessions and information on all its courses. Booking via the website is essential. With this in mind, One offers a range of courses including: • Yoga for Conception - Effortless exercises acclaimed for their gentle efficacy, which have been specially designed for promoting pelvic awareness and relaxation towards conception. • Stress - Yoga brings us back to where we should be by working directly on the nervous system. When we calm down we are also far more able to face our thoughts, fears and obstacles. • Back Pain - Specialised yoga therapy can help most types of low back pain by distinguishing between different types and applying appropriate yoga practices and precautions. • To support Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October, One will offer classes on Yoga for Breast Health, also a specific Yoga for Breast Cancer restorative course. Notes to Editors: Prices of Courses: Classes starts from £8. One to one sessions costs £55 for 1 hour and £30 for half an hour. The centre can also provide details of trained yoga therapists in other parts of the country.
