Abstract
A 53 year old female patient who came to Naturopathy and Yoga OPD was diagnosed a case of obesity associated with hypertension, joint pains and hypothyroidism since 4 years. She was administered Yoga and Naturopathy treatment 5 days a week for 45 days, she was advised a tailored diet regiment to be followed. Height, weight, waist circumference, blood pressure and BMI were recorded before and after the interventions. There was reduction in BMI, blood pressure and joint pain. These changes were persistent while follow up for next 90 days. This case study is an attempt to elicit the impact of one and half month of integrated naturopathy and yoga treatment protocol to reduce BMI, weight, abdominal obesity and joint pain. Further studies with larger sample size are indicated to establish mechanism of action and impact of yoga, diet & naturopathic treatments for managing abdominal obesity.
