Movie Reviews of Back Care Yoga
Movie Review: Gentle and Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
I checked here for reviews before buying this. There weren't any, so I took a chance. I'm glad I did. And since no one else has posted a review, I finally decided to in case anyone else would like a user's opinion. When I first tried this routine, I didn't think it was going to do much. It is very conservative. But it is also very safe. It avoids some of the front bending and stretching postures that can be dangerous for low back problems. Yoga Journal's routines often go in and out of postures faster than I like, and at first I wasn't sure I liked that aspect of the routine either. Ater doing this routine for about a month, though, I can say that my low back discomfort has eased off greatly. This DVD gets the credit. It is an excellent combination of equalized stretching on both sides of your body, plus relaxation for your upper and low back. The entire workout runs nearly an hour, which I don't always have time for. But it is broken into three segments, so you can do one or two only. Still, make the time for the full routine if you can. It's worth it. You don't need to do it every day. A few times a week has been enough for me to feel the benefit. Finally, the setting is beautiful, the production quality is high, and Rodney Yee is a pleasant presence (important for something you listen to over and over again). I highly recommend the DVD for anyone looking for back-related flexibility, relaxation, and restoration.Movie Review: so relaxing
Summary: 5 Stars
This DVD, for me, accomplishes every aspect I hope to accomplish with a beginner's Yoga workout. Rodney Yee relaxes my muscles, calms my mind, gets my legs and back much more flexible and keeps my general physique in shape. I usually skip the first warm up breathing segment, shortening the workout to 45 minutes, which is perfect. Unfortunately, it requires several props (inevitably something needs to be retrieved during the workout, causing me to angryily ruin my steady breathing and meditation grr) but these props definitely contribute to the workout in a vital way (especially if you do actually have back problems). This was the first Yoga experience my sister had and toward the end of the video she asked 'So when do we work out?'.. she loved the relaxation of Yoga and was a bit sore the next day (the most delightful benefit such a workout). I purchased another Yoga Back Care DVD for my parents who are totally new to Yoga, though they have yet to try it :-|Movie Review: Yee's Yoga for back care
Summary: 5 Stars
I was introduced to yoga a few years ago by a friend, but after being diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome I was in too much pain for "normal" yoga. So I went in search of something more back friendly and this was the dvd I found. I have to say that after weeks of medication on top of medication to control the symptoms of this condition that this dvd has been more effective than any of the conventional treatments I've tried.
Unlike some of the other dvds I have seen, this one is not filled with complex moves that only the uber-limber can do. Rodney Yee's methods are easy to follow and very easy on the body. One small word of caution-you do need to follow either his words or his actions in some spots as he seems to reverse right and left at times. Aside from that, I could not be happier with this dvd.
Movie Review: Really good for your back
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this DVD several years ago but hardly ever used it as I thought the poses were too easy and I would not get much out of it.
Lately I began to experience lower back pain each time I played tennis. I tried this DVD again. The first time I only did the 18 minute Flexibility and Strengthening segment. Even as I was doing the exercises, I could feel the tension draining away from my back. Just like that, my back pain was gone. A few days later I played tennis again and the back pain returned. This time I did the entire DVD and felt great afterwards. Now I use this DVD a couple of times a week, whenever I feel any discomfort in my back. I highly recommend this DVD to anyone who has back pain from sports
Movie Review: Helps My Back
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been working on strenngthen my abdominals since it helps with back issues and since it was working well I decided to look for more things to help me.
Rodney's back care video is one of the things I am using and it has been a perfect find for me with three great routines designed to help loosen my back. The poses are easy to understand and it is nice that they are done lying on the floor or seating. A bigger plus is that he understands that people need help and the props he uses for the poses are great. They add support and assistance where I need it and really help get the benefits from the pose.
Very good instruction and I will add other Rodney DVDs.
