				<p>&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;amp;nbsp;The study entitled &amp;amp;ldquo;Treatment of hypothyroidism through Yoga therapy &amp;amp;ndash; A study&amp;amp;rdquo; was conducted under the guidance of Dr. K. Krishna Sharma, Chairman, Dept. of Human Consciousness and Yogic Sciences, Mangalore University. To achieve this, there were 20 subjects diagnosed with hypothyroidism of the age group of 18- 60 years, selected for the study. Various yogic practices were given to the subjects under consideration for a period of 3 months including follow up. The results concluded that, there was a significant increase in the Triiodothyronine (T3) after the yogic practice, at a level of significance p&amp;amp;lt;0.05 from the mean 1.26 to 1.54, standard deviation of 0.302 to 0.161, t stat= 2.031, with a significant p= 0.00017, Thyroxine (T4) at a level of significance p&amp;amp;lt;0.05 from the mean 4.18 to 7.12, standard deviation of 1.198 to 1.751, t stat=2.018, with a significant p = 1.79&amp;amp;times;10-8. The parameters considered for the present were; Tri-iodothyronin (T3), Thyroxin (T4) and Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH).
