Yoga has shown potential as a complementary therapy in the rehabilitation of patients who have suffered a stroke. Stroke, or cerebrovascular accident (CVA), is a serious condition caused by the blockage or rupture of blood vessels in the brain, leading to either ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke. It is a leading cause of mortality globally, with Brazil reporting it as the primary cause of death in 2023. Stroke can result in severe neurological damage, affecting motor, sensory, and cognitive functions, and may even be fatal. The rehabilitation process for stroke patients involves a multidisciplinary team and may include pharmacological, non-pharmacological, and surgical interventions. Non-pharmacological approaches such as physiotherapy, risk factor reduction, and postural management are essential. Research indicates that yoga can play a significant role in stroke rehabilitation by improving physical and cognitive functions, reducing risk factors, and contributing to disease prevention. When integrated with neuroscience, such as in NeuroYoga, yoga can enhance neuroplasticity, reduce cognitive rigidity, modulate the autonomic nervous system, and improve brain connectivity and activity. These benefits can positively impact the quality of life of stroke patients. NeuroYoga, a practice combining traditional yoga principles with neuroscience, has shown promise in stroke rehabilitation by promoting brain plasticity and aiding in the recovery of cognitive and physical functions. Yoga also helps in reducing stress, anxiety, and depression, and can improve sleep quality and overall well-being. The integration of yoga into stroke rehabilitation offers a holistic approach that can complement traditional therapies and support the recovery of stroke patients.Yoga has shown potential as a complementary therapy in the rehabilitation of patients who have suffered a stroke.
