The most important ones are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Forward bends (\u201cclosing\u201d the body)<\/li>\n<li>Backbends (\u201copening\u201d the body)<\/li>\n<li>Twists<\/li>\n<li>Lateral extensions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In a good yoga session, all four of these functions will occur in a balanced way, in the shape of yoga postures or asanas.<\/p>\n<p>But what if your the state or shape of your body or spine are different from what is considered \u201cnormal\u201d or \u201caverage\u201d?<br \/>\nFor example, the spine has several natural curves, but quite a lot of us have them more or less pronounced. One can have a <strong>lordosis<\/strong> (hollowness) that is more pronounced than average at the lower part of the back, or a <strong>cyphosis<\/strong> (roundness) that is more generous than usual at the upper part of the back.<br \/>\nLeft\/right asymmetries such as caused by <strong>scoliosis<\/strong> occur quite frequently.<br \/>\nOften, we are not even aware of them and they do not cause any significant discomfort.<\/p>\n<h3>How to intervene regarding these differences?<\/h3>\n<p>Some of these situations, or other phenomena, can be of <strong>structural<\/strong> or <strong>functional<\/strong> nature:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>structural: the structure of the body and\/or spine is permanently altered<\/li>\n<li>functional: my attitude (e.g.: work charge or emotional state) has altered or modified the posture of the body<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In the first case, yoga therapy will avoid the worsening of the structural modification of the body shape.<br \/>\nIn the second case, the modification of the body shape can be readjusted.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<h2>What other advantages does a private yoga session offer?<\/h2>\n<p>See all applications of yoga therapy:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"yk-red_btn\" title=\"Yoga therapy\" href=\"https:\/\/yogakitchen.be\/en\/yoga-therapy\/\">More applications of yoga therapy<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Would you rather prefer to book one of our group classes?<\/h2>\n<p>Have a look at our offer and book a class using the links below:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"yk-red_btn\" title=\"Book a yoga class\" href=\"https:\/\/yogakitchen.be\/en\/calendar\/\">Book a yoga class<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a class=\"yk-blue_btn\" title=\"Yoga classes\" href=\"https:\/\/yogakitchen.be\/en\/yoga-classes\/\">Check out our yoga classes offer<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Private yoga for adaptation Do you feel that the state or shape of your body or spine are different from what is considered \u201cnormal\u201d or \u201caverage\u201d?
