Yoga & Ayurveda
At Ayutherapy, our mission is to heal and deliver our clients an optimal quality of life and health in a sustainable manner, using all-natural Ayurveda means and methods. We achieve this by identifying where imbalances are derived from and then propose a custom wellness program. This usually consists of some combination of personalized dietary and lifestyle adjustments, a herbal regimen and mind/body therapies. Yoga and Ayurveda came from the Vedas, which were based on stories and knowledge from hundreds of years ago. Their similarities and parallel paths overlap, and it is said that Ayurveda is the field of study and science, while Yoga puts the principles and teachings into practice.
Many of Ayutherapy’s valued clients have come to us because they suffer from chronic back pain or neck pain. At Ayutherapy, we strive to help our clients attain and sustain great health, becoming independent in the maintenance of their own selves. This means clients reduce dependency on clinics and doctors through good practice. Especially in the case of back pain and neck pain, there are wonderful practices that offer a manageable path to achieving that sought after independence. Because of this, from 2023, Ayutherapy will offer customized yoga workshop courses to our clients, as they deserve optimal health and wellbeing!
Yoga For Back & Neck Pain At Ayutherapy
Ayutherapy is delighted to offer small group and private yoga therapy based on your unique needs and health challenges. Yoga therapy is an effective and holistic modality of healing which will complement the Ayurvedic protocol you are already undergoing.
Yoga therapy is the specific application of yoga tools and philosophy to bring about health at the physical, physiological, mental, intellectual and spiritual levels. It is based on the ancient five sheath model that addresses the concerns of a human being at all levels rather than taking a piecemeal approach. The goal of yoga therapy for back and neck pain is to empower the participant to alleviate musculoskeletal pain, improve the overall health and awareness of lifestyle, diet, sleep and stress. Yoga therapy proposes the idea of mind (and stress) as the underlying cause of disease, and provides the methods to master the mind and manage stress.

About Vinutha
Vinutha Kornaya (MBA, ERYT-500, C-IAYT, HAC) completed her yoga teacher training at S-VYASA, Bengaluru in 2003 and is a Yoga Alliance certified yoga teacher. She studied yoga therapy at Yoga Bharati and is an International Association of Yoga Therapists (IAYT) certified yoga therapist since 2021. She is an Ayurvedic Health Coach, currently pursuing her education in Ayurveda. As a Yoga Bharati volunteer, she led several Yoga Teacher Trainings, was a faculty for the yoga therapy training and conducted their online yoga courses at the Hindu University of America (HUA). She also volunteers her time at the senior center teaching Gentle Chair Yoga.
Her true education, however, began when she stepped on the mat as a fourteen year old girl. Yoga proved to be life changing and it helped her stay grounded through the years. To maintain the innermost sense of equanimity has been her most challenging sadhana. Her hope is to share this ancient philosophy, science and art with as many aspirants as possible and help others through holistic and natural healing modalities.
