Abstract

Population ageing is a growing concern due to factors like life expectancy and declining reproduction rates, resulting in an increasing number of individuals aged 60 and above. These demographic faces healthcare issues, including decline in physiological reserve, chronic diseases, comorbidity, disability, frailty, and social challenges. Factors like education, socioeconomic status, gender, and residence also impact the elderly population. Geriatric assessment is crucial for developing an integrated care plan. Yoga, a popular approach, has shown positive outcomes in cellular ageing, physical mobility, psychological well-being, and cognitive deterioration. Yoga can contribute to treatment and prevention of geriatric disorders, improving management and overall health for the elderly population.
