Low Back Solutions for Scoliosis, Sciatic, and Lumbar Ache
Back pain sufferers take heart! Yoga offers freedom from pain and that is not a dream! Come find relief and discover more options for your home practice. You deserve it! Whether you have scoliosis, sciatica, SI joint pain, lumbar aches, or stiffness in the upper back, this workshop will teach you how to relax, as well as how to set up simple poses that alleviate discomfort.
Neck and Shoulders
Limitations, weaknesses, injury, and tightness of the neck and shoulders will be discussed. Postures which address these issues and the use of props to modify, correct, improve, and heal will be demonstrated and instructed. Learning to work the shoulder girdle to include the shoulder blade, the arms, the collars bones, the sternum and the ribs shows the body’s inter-connectedness and the need to work holistically.
Hips and Knees Therapeutics
One startling discovery is that pain in the knees often originates in the hips. And the hips receive impact from the spine above and the feet below. What do to?Consistent yoga practice enables us to have looser hips and flexible knees. Stiffness and immobility can become a thing of that if you practice sufficiently and correctly.
