Utilize the Benefits of Gentle Yoga to Relieve the Pain and Stress of Your Back Pain

Over 65 million Americans suffer from back pain each year, making it one of the most common reasons why people in the United States seek medical care. Back problems—such as sciatica and herniated discs—may be a result of injury, arthritis, increased stress on the spine over time, or a myriad of other causes. However, it is never too late to adopt a healthy lifestyle. Yoga can become an integral part of improving your overall health and well-being.

Gentle Yoga for Back Pain shows you how to integrate yoga into your exercise routine to promote back health. Because yoga is low-impact and is easily modified to your own needs and abilities, you can safely and effectively reap the benefits of exercise by increasing flexibility, strengthening
muscles, and improving posture.

Gentle Yofa for Back Pain also includes:
- An overview of the causes and symptoms of back issues
- Helpful diet and lifestyle tips to improve back health
- An introductory guide to understanding the benefits of yoga
- Important precautions to ensure safety during yoga practice

Whether you are looking to prevent the onset of back problems or are already experiencing back issues and aim to reduce your symptoms, Gentle Yoga for Back Pain is your complete guide to relieving pain and stress through yoga.

The Gentle Yoga series seeks to promote the many beneficial effects of yoga exercise in the treatment of specific diseases. The exercises are clearly illustrated, safe, and tailored to your condition. Each book in the series also provides an overview of the disease as well as other lifestyle tips to improve overall health and daily functioning.
