Yoga can help vestibular patients regain balance, focus, movement and coordination. It can also reduce dizziness. There are three main components of yoga practice: poses (asanas), breathing (pranayama) and meditation (dhyana). Certified yoga therapist and vestibular physical therapist, Dr. Saravanan Chockalingam, explains the different components of yoga and engages viewers in practice breathing exercises. For an article by Dr. Chockalingham that includes a list of poses and photos, visit VeDA’s website at https://vestibular.org/sites/default/files/page_files/Documents/Yoga%20for%20Balance_86.pdf.
