Description
Osteoporosis, a disease characterized by critically low bone mass that leads to painful fractures, affects millions of Americans. One in two women and one in four men over age fifty will have an osteoporosis-related fracture in their lifetime. Although drugs and surgeries can alleviate pain, studies show that low-impact, bone-strengthening exercise is the best treatment. Yoga strengthens bones without endangering joints, making it the perfect therapy for osteoporosis.
For more than a decade, renowned physician and longtime yoga practitioner Loren Fishman's Yoga for Osteoporosis has been an essential guide to understanding and treating this disease. In this completely revised edition, Fishman explains how osteoporosis and yoga affect our bones and offers a spectrum of classical yoga poses--including physiologically sound adaptations--with easy-to-follow instructions and photographs. Updated with the latest medical insights and accessible poses, Yoga for Osteoporosis welcomes readers of all ages and levels of experience into the healing and strengthening practice of yoga.
