Health Benefits of Yoga

Support Joint Health

If you are suffering from stiffness, pain, or swelling in the joints, then yoga can be an effective way to alleviate these conditions. Most movements and poses needed for yoga are typically low impacts, thus enabling you to use most joints without harming or injuring them. In addition, these practices would help improve the strength of many muscle groups around your joints, which can be useful in lessening the load. That’s why patients with arthritis usually see a significant improvement in their mobility and pain when practicing yoga regularly and gently. [4]
