Neurotherapy can help treat various neurological and psychological disorders, such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, stroke, dementia and more.

Yog Chikitsa (योग चिकित्सा) is a term that means “yoga therapy” in Sanskrit. It refers to the application of yoga as a mode of therapy for various physical and mental conditions. Yog Chikitsa is based on the ancient wisdom of yoga and the modern understanding of neuroscience.
