Accu-Yoga Therapy
As part of a holistic or whole-body approach, Acu-Yoga can be practiced beneficially with a symptomatic orientation.
Although the symptomatic approach is limited it can be of value, often as a first step towards greater awareness of your body and its imbalances.
With Acu-Yoga each pose stimulates specific points, meridians, and parts of the body traditionally associated with various conditions. These relationships are based upon centuries, and even thousands of years, of observation and practice in the East.
Acu-Yoga enables you to do something for yourself, instead of always having to rely on others for information about your condition. The postures, breathing, and relaxation are a form of physical self-therapy that offers practical tools for enhancing one's health. The symptoms we have are messages, or signals our bodies send us, indicating that there are more extensive, underlying imbalances that need to be attended to.
Acu-Yoga does not treat symptoms or disease, or claim to cure health problems. In fact, many times the points and poses may bring a symptom to a peak, as buried or repressed problems begin to surface.
As we develop greater awareness of our condition, of our symptoms, and of our strengths and weaknesses, we also gain an opportunity to discover original causes of imbalance.
One must always remember that a symptom is only a starting point, a key or clue to what needs attention. Through the practice of Acu-Yoga you may discover what you need to change in your life in order to solve the root of the problem.
Please, noted that Acu-Yoga attempts to prevent illness from occurring, rather than treats it. Acu-Yoga is a holistic method of health maintenance, not a form of medicine. If you have an illness or disease, please seek medical attention from a qualified doctor.
