What Are Yoga Therapy and Naturopathy?

Two AYUSH Systems, Offered Together on Purpose

Both are recognized under India's AYUSH ministry, but they treat the body through different mechanisms — which is why Tigris Valley offers them together rather than as a single blended practice.

Yoga therapy is the clinical application of asana (posture), pranayama (breathwork) and meditation to address a specific physical or mental health condition, rather than general fitness practice. At Tigris Valley, sessions are sequenced by a yoga therapist around your stated condition — stress, chronic pain, or post-injury recovery — and adjusted daily based on how your body responds. It draws on the same classical texts as general yoga (Patanjali's Yoga Sutras) but is structured more like physiotherapy than a group fitness class.

Naturopathy is a drug-free system of medicine that uses natural elements — water (hydrotherapy), earth (mud therapy), controlled diet and fasting, sunlight and manipulative therapies — to support the body's own healing processes. It is one of the oldest recognized AYUSH systems in India and is typically prescribed alongside Yoga, not instead of it, for conditions with a strong lifestyle or metabolic component. Naturopathy at Tigris Valley is supervised by Dr. Sara Shareef, BNYS, and typically runs as a structured 7–14 day protocol.
