Yoga is no longer just a lifestyle choice. It’s a therapy.

“Tension without reason, no attention, no retention… only pretension!”

These powerful words, delivered with wit and wisdom by Sri M. Venkaiah Naidu, Former Vice President of India, echoed across a large gathering in Hyderabad on International Yoga Day 2025. He didn’t stop there:

“Yoga should be a mission - no omission, no remission, but passion for the nation!”

At Manaha Clinic, we took these words to heart.

🧠 Why We Introduced Yoga Therapy at Manaha Clinic

As a mind and neuro health centre in Kokapet, we’ve always approached psychiatry differently. Alongside clinical psychiatry, psychotherapy, neuromodulation, and medication, we believe in activating the body’s own healing systems.

With the addition of Yoga Therapy Services, our vision of holistic mental health becomes more complete.

🌿 What Makes Our Yoga Therapy Unique?

Our programs are not general yoga classes. Each session is designed as a therapeutic extension to your clinical care plan. Whether you’re dealing with:

Generalized Anxiety Disorder
ADHD or Autism Spectrum traits
Sleep Disorders
OCD or Depression
Neurodevelopmental conditions in children

…our yoga therapy is tailored to suit your diagnosis, lifestyle, and neurobiology.

👩‍⚕️ Who Will Guide You?

All sessions are conducted by our in-house Naturopathy & Yoga Specialists, who are trained in both clinical yoga and integrative medicine. The specialist works closely with our psychiatric team to monitor outcomes, energy levels, and physical capacity.
