Yoga therapy is now gaining popularity because it is natural and doesn't have any side effects. Once people start to go on these kinds of treatment it takes longer time for them to get the desired benefits.
Improper yoga is quite dangerous as it harms the human body rather than helping it and, so it is extremely important for people to determine appropriate treatment, which is best suited, for them.

One other advantage that yoga has over the traditional methods is that people of any age group can do it. Yoga doesn't have any age limits, and that provides people with the freedom of choosing what kind of yoga that they want to do. In traditional methods, people have to suffer, and they go through a lot of pain, starving, fatigues and money to reduce their weight whereas, in yoga, it's quite the opposite.
People can feel energetic after performing their asana, which is not so likely with the traditional weight-loss methods.
