Developed in India thousands of years ago, yoga has become increasingly popular as a form of exercise in the United States. The purpose of yoga is to create strength, awareness and harmony in both the mind and body. Yoga can be a very effective therapeutic modality for those recovering from, or living with, injury and illness.
