EP 86 - Benefits of Yoga Medicine
Yoga has long been touted as a healing practice, with roots in Eastern medicine.

However, Tiffany Cruikshank, founder of Yoga Medicine®, has taken the practice and turned it into a real medical methodology.

Yoga Medicine® is a thorough, anatomically based training system that trains teachers across the globe to work more powerfully with their students.

Yoga Medicine® is not a style of yoga but rather a training that educates the teacher to understand the body and create individualized yoga programs for the student based on their understanding of the anatomy, biomechanics, physiology and the traditional practice of yoga.

Listen as Tiffany joins Dr. Bond to explain the differences between her methodology and traditional yoga, as well as the many benefits of following a Yoga Medicine® approach, such as pain relief and improved mental health.
