Evidence-Based Yoga Therapy: Physiological Mechanisms and Therapeutic Applications presents a comprehensive scientific exploration of yoga as an evidence-based complementary therapy for the prevention, management, and rehabilitation of chronic diseases. While yoga has been practiced for thousands of years to promote physical, mental, and spiritual well-being, recent advances in biomedical research have provided compelling evidence supporting its therapeutic potential across a wide spectrum of health conditions. This book bridges the gap between traditional yogic wisdom and modern medical science by integrating classical yoga philosophy with contemporary clinical and translational research. The book examines the physiological and molecular mechanisms underlying yoga, including its effects on the nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, respiratory, musculoskeletal, and immune systems. It highlights emerging evidence on neuroplasticity, autonomic regulation, stress physiology, inflammation, oxidative stress, gene expression, epigenetics, and the gut-brain axis to explain how yoga contributes to improved health outcomes. The role of advanced technologies such as neuroimaging, electrophysiology, wearable sensors, and biomarker-based assessments in understanding the mechanisms of yoga is also discussed. Drawing upon randomized controlled trials, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and clinical practice guidelines, the book critically evaluates the effectiveness of yoga in managing cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, obesity, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, chronic pain, arthritis, cancer, neurological disorders, respiratory diseases, mental health conditions, sleep disorders, women's reproductive health, healthy aging, and rehabilitation. Special emphasis is placed on evidence-based yoga protocols, safety considerations, clinical implementation, and personalized therapeutic approaches for diverse populations. In addition to reviewing current scientific evidence, the book discusses research methodology, quality assessment, challenges in yoga research, and future directions for developing standardized, evidence-based yoga interventions.
