Pre-Owned Yoga: The Back Pain Cure: The Yoga Therapy Back Care and Low Back Pain Treatment Program (Paperback) 0615986366 9780615986364

Back pain! As anyone with back problems will tell you, pain, limited activities, and days missed from work take their toll physically, financially, and emotionally. A big problem with most back care programs is limited treatment options. Pain medications often mask problems, allowing further damage to occur because warning pain is not felt. Physical therapy is limited by what insurance companies deem necessary, and lastly surgery, a costly option, is often ineffective. The good news is that yoga therapy can help relieve your pain while at the same time improve flexibility and strength. And because yoga is a practice for your entire mind and body, most people find they sleep better, their mood improves, and they enjoy an enhanced sense of well-being. This book features two yoga therapy practices. The first is for acute back problems which means you're in pain right now. This practice is designed to bring structural balance back into your body and gently stretch key muscles, reducing pain and helping you heal. The second practice is designed to build strength and flexibility which helps prevent future problems. Also covered: *How to prevent low back problems in the first place. *The different types of low back problems and why they occur. *A first-aid section that shows highly effective natural methods for relieving pain. *Anatomy of the low back. The back care program in this book has been developed by a highly experienced yoga instructor and chiropractor working together for over 7 years. It's been used with thousands of people with back issues and has proven to be successful 93% of the time. With the help of this book you can get back into the activities and lifestyle you enjoy, without drugs or costly treatments, and in the comfort of your home.
