Written for serious practitioners and teachers who want to use yoga to bring complete balance to the body, and understand, in more detail, how the asanas affect the structure of the body. You will learn "body reading" to determine what posture reveals about muscular imbalances. Stiles shares his understanding of anatomy and kinesiology, joint mobility and muscle strength, and teaches a series of joint-freeing exercises that can also be used to strengthen muscles. 123 illustrations. Index.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Finally something that helps! Comment: Structural Yoga Therapy: Adapting to the Individual
I was referred to Makunda Stiles' Structural Yoga Therapy by Joan Borysenko, PhD. (Minding the Body, Mending the Mind) for severe neck pain that tradidtional medicine has been unable to address except through more surgeries and nerve blocks and drugs. I have just started the individual asanas that are recommended so I will have to add to this review when I have more information. I am very hopeful.
The author is very knowlegeable about anatomy and careful not to stress other areas of the body while addressing the problem area. His writing is clear and easy to follow. Hopefully, I will be able to add to this review after practicing his asanas and achieving some level of pain relief.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great Book - Succeeded where nothing else could Comment: I have been suffering from pain for over two years. I have been to numerours chiropractors, physical therapists and other alternative health treatments. There were some issues that neither myself nor the therapist at the clinic could figure out, however hard we tried.
I went through this book, performed a) Postural analysis b) Functional tests for muscle strength and flexibility. I developed my own customized Yoga routine based on the advice given in the book. Portions of the book can get a bit technical and you need to have a keen analytical mind to systematically perform the steps and develop your own routine.
I sincerely do these exercises and have been feeling great ever since. This book has given me so much relief, that this review is only a small way of offering my thanks to the author.
Customer Rating:      Summary: structural yoga therapy Comment: A welcome book that is a great help in spotting common postural misalignments in students. It also outlines the areas of the body that are tight or weak resulting from the misalignment. I like his detailed explaination on the joint opening sequence called pavanmuktasana as this can be a good starting point for students that have body bias or are new to yoga.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Structural Yoga Therapy, Adapting to the Individual Comment: Book is awesome. The reading is so interesting and the information is excellent. A must for yoga instructors and students, too.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good Reference for Yoga Teachers Comment: This book is an excellent reference for yoga teachers. I've used the structural techniques in my classes. Highly recommend it for all teachers.
