Yoga can help you maintain joint strength and flexibility which means you can minimize the inflammation, swelling and pain. If joints are not properly stretched and strong, they can suffer from permanent damage caused by arthritis. Yoga can help you keep joints healthy and strong. You need to choose the right yoga posture according to your condition. Over the years, yoga has become a very broad term and includes a variety of forms. It's best to work with a qualified yoga instructor who understand arthritis and can recommend the right yoga exercises for you.

Physical activity is an essential part of the effective treatment of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Yoga can be a meaningful and enjoyable alternative to traditional forms of exercise. It can increase muscle strength, improve flexibility, enhance respiratory endurance, and promote balance. Yoga is also associated with increased energy and fewer bodily aches and pains.

Perceived benefits of exercise on osteoarthritis
Posted: 04-15-08 06:56am

Hi,

I'm doing my final research project on people's perceived benefits of exercise on osteoarthritis.

It just entails filling out 2 short questionnaires.

Do you know anyone who may be interested?
