背景介绍
瑜伽已经在亚洲国家践行了数千年，有时被采用治疗多种疾病。 1 一般来说，虽然瑜伽包含了不同的派系和思想，其主要特点有呼吸，冥想，和姿势技术。在美国，哈他瑜伽（传统瑜伽）最为盛行。 2 太极与瑜伽类似，也是通过控制身体配合呼吸进行缓慢、有规律的运动。 3
近年来在西方文化中，瑜伽已被建议治疗关节炎 4 , 哮喘 5 , 冠状动脉疾病, 6 和癫痫等疾病。7 瑜伽与太极都可以被视为有氧运动，可以有效减轻与癌症治疗相关的恶心，呕吐，疲劳，抑郁等症状。8 9 它们也同时被证明可以改善治疗后的生活质量。10 11 12 13 14
究竟瑜伽、太极是如何对抗压力的问题现在还是未知，但是研究表明其中的机制是错综复杂的。根据其中一个理论，呼吸、姿势、和肌肉的变化会造成皮质下层或无意识或潜意识模式的改变。15
目前，许多研究都在深入探索瑜伽和太极对于癌症患者和幸存者的益处。
