Abstract

This chapter provides a practical introduction and guidelines for clinicians and researchers to appreciate the relationship between two enormous topics: pain and yoga. The emphasis is on practicality for both audiences with frequent citation to recent related publications and their deeper citations. The intention to fuel the imaginations of both clinicians and researchers occurs with a foundational understanding of how yoga, pain, and pain care are related. The authors' experience in the clinic using yoga for people with pain and future areas for clinical and research inquiry are included. A list of techniques for the clinic, their clinical rationale, and two case reports ground the material and invite additional reflection for the psychophysiological applications of yoga in pain care.
