A Well Written, Sound Guide and a Delight to Read

By John W. Kepner - March 9, 2003

As practicing Yoga therapist, perhaps my best recommendation is to note that I have spiral bound my own copy and some of the pages are becoming a bit dog-eared. This is a well written, sound introductory guide to Yoga therapy, written by two of the Western leaders in this emerging discipline. The text has an elegant simplicity, reflecting years of experience. I especially appreciate the thoughtful allopathic medical advice and wise lifestyle counseling well integrated with the Yoga practices. I also appreciate the extensive resource guide and the many academic references.

Just what the Doctor ordered!

By Norma Levy - October 7, 2002

This is the best, most practical and useful book on yoga I have ever read. The text is so readable - personal & completely accessible; it really draws you in. What an inspiring, easy to use (and side-effect-free) prescription for healing and well-being. I think anyone who reads this book will find what they need to take their health and joy in living to a much higher level.

Helps Bridge the Gap Between Yoga and Conventional Medicine

By Suza Francina "Suza Francina, author" - February 8, 2003

Yoga Rx is a user-friendly introduction to how Yoga Therapy adapts the practices of yoga to the needs of people with specific health problems. It is an important book for bridging the gap between yoga teachers, doctors and other health professionals. Both busy doctors and their patients will benefit tremendously from reading Yoga Rx. As a companion to this book, I recommend Yoga: the Path to Holistic Health, by B.K.S. Iyengar, which illustrates the use of props in therapeutic yoga programs.I highly recommend Yoga Rx to teachers of all traditions. 100 Sun Salutations to Larry Payne and Dr.Richard Usatine for writing this empowering book! Suza Francina, author, The New Yoga for People Over 50 and Yoga and the Wisdom of Menopause.
