Abstract
The chapter follows a conventional pattern where at first the definition, prevalence, and pathophysiology of the disease are described, followed by the rationale for the use of yoga therapy in that disease; then, the review of published literature and analysis on the quality of research studies and strength of evidence are provided. The final section of the book provides valuable practical tips for yoga therapy and future directions to yoga clinical research. Reading this book will not only enrich yoga clinicians with up-to-date evidence base for major global health problems but will also bring clarity from the ancient yogic point of view on the understanding of disease and its management.
