Integrative Health Conference
Yoga therapy
An integrative approach to holistic health
A complementary, rigorous, and humane discipline
at the intersection of movement, nervous system regulation, and health education.
A changing clinical environment
Many healthcare professionals today observe that:
an increase in functional disorders, chronic stress, and persistent pain
more complex and often fragmented care pathways
limitations of approaches focused exclusively on symptoms
increased demand for tools that promote autonomy, adherence, and prevention
In this context, integrative healthcare proposes to broaden the possible responses,
without compromising on clinical rigor, ethics, and interprofessional collaboration.
Yoga therapy: a complementary approach
Yoga therapy is part of this integrative vision.
It does not replace medical or therapeutic care.
It supports and complements them and builds bridges between disciplines.
Its main purpose is to strengthen the individual's capacity for self-regulation,
in line with the monitoring systems already in place.

What exactly is yoga therapy?
Yoga therapy is a personalized, person-centered, evidence-based support discipline.
It is based in particular on:
the physiology of movement
regulation of the nervous system
breathing
somatic education
the therapeutic relationship
Interventions are tailored to each person's abilities, goals, and clinical context , in accordance with existing fields of practice.
What yoga therapy is not
To avoid confusion, it is important to clarify that yoga therapy is not:
a generic yoga class
a promise of healing
an alternative to conventional medicine or treatments
This distinction is an integral part of responsible practice.
Why integrate yoga therapy
into an integrative health approach?
Meeting patients' current expectations
Today's patients are better informed, more involved, and seeking meaning.
They want:
better understand their bodies
actively participate in their healthcare process
have practical tools available between consultations
Yoga therapy supports this participation in a structured, gradual, and safe manner.
Supporting a more sustainable healthcare system
In addition to existing treatments, yoga therapy can help to:
secondary and tertiary prevention
the development of self-regulation
better adherence to treatment plans
reducing certain forms of avoidable chronicity
Enriching the clinical toolkit
Yoga therapy is frequently used to support:
stress management and nervous system regulation
persistent and chronic pain
fatigue and functional disorders
rehabilitation and mental health
Always with a view to complementarity and collaboration.
An approach designed for interprofessional collaboration
Yoga therapy integrates particularly well with the following practices:
physicians and nurse practitioners
physical therapists and occupational therapists
mental health professionals
manual therapists and practitioners of complementary approaches
At Yoga ReSource, collaboration is based on:
respect for roles and fields of practice
the professional reference
clear, ethical, and well-documented communication
