The GHOSH YOGA therapeutic manual describes "Yoga Therapeutic Exercises to build functional strength and range of motion in the major joints and muscles. Therapeutic exercises are done in movement, in contrast to traditional yoga postures which are held in stillness. These exercises move the body through its range of motion with each repetition. Additionally, Bayam exercises can add an element of fitness, cardio, and strength to the practice.

Therapeutic exercises are intended to bring health and ease to the body and mind. They have the ability to strengthen weak areas and relax tight ones when employed properly and help alleviate common troubles."
