Healthcare is seeing an increasing number of clients seeking Complementary and Alternative (CAM) therapies for the treatment of mental and physical healthcare need. A University in Southeastern North Carolina uses a unique interprofessional team-based practice model that embodies complementary and alternative approaches to the psychosocial health of military families. Military affiliated clients (177) completed a Client Satisfaction feedback survey, which determined if holistic services provided met their physical and mental health needs. Survey findings concluded that the clients’ health status in most ares improved. Of the 175 who responded to the survey item, 87% (n=154) indicated that they felt “much better than before” coming to the Institute. Qualitative measures revealed descriptors of “awesome”, amazing”, “wonderful” and “a blessing”. Of their overall experience at the Institute. This holistic model has the capacity to inform and advance military health through the use of CAM treatment modalities for chronic pain, posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, using the complement and collaboration of interprofessional teams.

Success in Yoga therapy depends on a quality of learning of the exercises’ physical technique and its bond with mental concentration. For many people, the mental aspect is more difficult than the physical one if a teacher’s instruction does not have a clear visual pattern. At most, rational explanations of the biomechanical meaning and outcomes of a specific exercise are substituted by references to the structures and instances, which can not be currently measured or scientifically verified and are rather mysterious. In a search for rational scientific models applicable to Yoga training and therapy, the author found a report on a recent experimental study on transmission of pressure from one joint capsule to the others. The study by Tufts University team demonstrated that the pressure is transmitted hydrostatically via tiny spaces between the surfaces of long bones and periosteum. This discovery points on existence of an unnoticed before subsystem in the skeletal system, which plays an important, if not a key, role in distributing loads applied to the joint cartilages. The subsystem called floating skeleton, can be kept sound with a system of sanomechanics exercises similar to yoga asanas but with a specific criterion of correctness and autosuggestions based on the Floating skeleton concept. This paper considers an advantage of the reverse application of the Sanomechanics to traditional yoga exercises to facilitate learning by providing rational model of yoga success.
