Volumes 1 and 2

$65

The combined set of both volumes 1 and 2 of 'The Therapeutic Wisdom of Yoga' provides an insightful exploration of what yoga has to offer therapeutically, and covers both myofascial and functional understanding of pain problems and how they arise.

This includes principles of postural and movement assessment, tools for understanding structural and myofascial roots of chronic pain problems, and practical approaches through contemporary alignment-based hatha yoga postural practice aimed at addressing them.

The set is a resource that is useful and accessible to yoga teachers as well as practitioners. Both books are heavily illustrated with anatomical details as well illustrations of applications of these insights in the poses.

For a more detailed description of each volume, see the descriptions given for each of the two volumes individually.

The books are truebound, with a water-resistent velvet lamination, 8 1/2 by 11 inches.
