Movie Reviews of Back Care YogaMovie Review: A great therapeutic session! Summary: 5 Stars
I wish I had purchased this program when it was first released. It is great for maintaing a healthy back. Recently I encountered problems with my back following an accident at home. Pilates and physical therapy helped but did not take me into the progress that this program has. Because pain causes stress, it has been therapeutic for body and mind connection and designed to keep the entire back strong while promoting proper body alignment. As a dancer I am fit and practice yoga, but I needed a gentle program and sequence to promote instead of disrupting healing.
If you are a beginner to yoga, you may be a little lost, so view the program several times or begin with Rodney Yee's beginner series. I would venture to say this is gentle yoga and very therapeutic for those trying to strengthen or rehabilitate the back.
There is a section designed with back care exercises includes proper body mechanics for sitting properly. The concept here is to correct the bad posture of everyday which can cause a degenerating back. Simple yoga stretches done in a chair can correct and prevent damage to our spine. Rodney Yee, alongside a physician, are interviewed and offer advice and benefits of yoga.
The program is broken down into three sections:
1.exploration - simple seated stretches
2. strength and flexibility gentle stretching, ie.lunges, Warrior poses, bent legged down dog
3.restorative- deep undulating breathing and relaxation, relieving tensions while resting on bolster seated in chair
Learning to let go of tension is perhaps one huge element is releasing pain. Learning to break the relationship that we at times acquire with pain is part of the exploration into the self. The concept here is that at times the pain can be tied to emotions. This program has soothing calming effects as Rodney narrates each posture, with cues on proper breathing . He is surrounded by peaceful nature and water as he leads into the poses. The background music is so relaxing and as he says. " let go", you simply let go.
Simple items may be utilized to facilitate the poses into more gentle modifications. A bolster, 2 chairs, a blanket, yoga mat, and 2 blocks, these are simple measures that don't add up to the cost of prescriptions or lengthy doctor office visits and fees.The blocks allow you to maintain just enough length as not to compromise the stretch into deeper pose if you are not ready. If you don't have a bolster, 2 pillows tied together work great. I gladly gathered the necessities and begin the program. I modified each posture to my ability.In just one session, I had m relief and that was enough to know I was on the right track to healing. I paced my workout with few poses from each section and continue to progress with it daily! It is a must have for maintaining a healthy back-pricless!
