Yoga Bones, written by author, occupational therapist, and yoga instructor Laura Staton, guides readers to manage their pain, be it from injury or after orthopedic surgery, with yoga-inspired and occupational therapist-approved stretches and exercises designed to increase strength and decrease pain.

Organized by sections of the body, each chapter includes a curated menu of fully-photographed yoga asana-based exercises, guiding anyone from yoga experts to newbies..

Yoga Bones also includes Functional Wellness sections designed to explore the emotional components of healing. For example, a reader with neck pain can find both a menu of physical stretches which can help lessen the pain, but also energetic exercises and meditations for a healing that is holistic.

Reviews for Yoga Bones: A Comprehensive Guide to Managing Pain and Orthopedic Injuries through Yoga

"Yoga Bones is a knowledgeable and insightful guide for anyone interested in the interface of Western medicine and Eastern yoga practices, and how they combine to treat many physical conditions and create holistic well-being. Staton's experience as both an occupational therapist and a yoga therapist comes together in a treasure trove of accessible and helpful guidance. I love this book, and I recommend it to professionals, and to anyone who is seeking help with issues ranging from foot to neck pain, and everything in between.--Liz Owen, yoga therapist and coauthor of The Yoga Effect and Yoga for a Healthy Lower Back ""This book is clear and informative; its author is anatomically sophisticated, and has crucial knowledge of how changes in anatomy translate into functional problems. With equal clarity she sketches out how to take care of these problems.""--Loren Fishman, MD, Columbia University Medical School, B.Phil., (oxon.) Laura's unique and well-received individualized yoga sessions have been enormously beneficial to appropriate patients as an adjunct to their rehabilitation programs. She applies her expertise to Yoga Bones, which provides additional treatment options that patients can use, with the advice of their physicians, to help alleviate their symptoms.--Jeffrey B. Weinberg, MD, chairman, Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Staten Island University Hospital"
