Hello,

This is pretty much what general physical therapy is for.
Ayurvedic yoga is the result of colonial European "positional fitness" culture of the 18th century influencing some Hindu thinking.

For this reason,differentiating between East and West is not as helpful as distinguishing between active and moving versus passive and still. To increase muscle strength and tone active and moving exercises are the ones that help.

Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
