Movie Reviews of Back Care Yoga
Movie Review: yoga back care
Summary: 4 Stars
Although I enjoy the DVD, I wish it had a little more to it. It seems to help my back a bit but only for a short time. I need to do it more often to see better results. It is very relaxing and well done. I think almost anyone could do this yoga. Best wishes to all.Movie Review: great starter dvd
Summary: 4 Stars
The program is pretty easy to follow and is especially suitable for beginners to yoga. The main routine on the dvd is about 30 minutes and gives good full-body stretch. The additional items on the dvd are not of any particular note.Movie Review: Yoga Journal's Yoga for Back Care
Summary: 4 Stars
Rodney Yee is an excellent yoga instructor. This DVD really helps people with back issues. The DVD is prop heavy though and you cannot properly do all yoga poses without the required props. Other than that it is a good DVD.Movie Review: 40 minutes of fluff, 20 minutes of strengthening/flexibility
Summary: 3 Stars
I like the 20 minute chapter where Mr. Yee takes you through some strengthening and stretching exercises. However, the first and last 20-minute segments are largely unproductive. The first time you use it, the first segment ("exploration") does give you some insight into how your back works. As it has very little in the way of conditioning, you'll most likely skip right to the second (real) segment on a daily basis. The third segment (restoration) seems to be Gaiam's way of pushing yoga-specific merchandise (bolster, blanket, blocks, etc). Again, there is no conditioning here. I do think the "strength and flexibiity" 20-minute segment is very nice, and has helped a lot with my posture and given me better flexibility and relief from my herniated disk pain. So I personally think I'd buy it again, but cost aside there was a chance to make this a really nice 3-segment dvd and they instead made a decent 1-segment dvd.Movie Review: I wanted to love this, but it just isn't what I wanted
Summary: 3 Stars
I want to give it 2.5 stars. I have pretty bad back problems, bulging discs, one surgery and countless epidurals under my belt, and thought that a good back sensitive yoga program would help the essential core strengthening I need to get healthier. BUT even though I've been out of work on disability for a few months due to the fact that I can't sit for more than 3 hours (taking a 10 minute break each half hour) and can't stand for more than 10 minutes. This video was too darn easy. The stretches were nice and relaxing, which was a change from the other beginner yoga dvd's I tried which were too intense for my back. But strength from this one? Not going to happen for me, I'm already flexible enough that doing this program didn't do anything to me at all. Next time I am going to try to rent yoga back care dvds before buying.
