Movie Reviews of Viniyoga Therapy for the Low Back, Sacrum and Hips
Movie Review: Educational and thorough, good for beginners
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been doing yoga for several years, but specifically the last year for my lower back. When I'm not doing the poses given by my physical therapist twice a day, I have preferred Rodney Yee--especially "For Back Care."
This DVD is excellent. His lecture at the beginning is very thorough, although a bit akward. However, the verbal instructions for the exercises are excellent. There were not many new poses for me here, but excellent variations and more repetitions than I was doing. I could feel the difference. The mp3 versions are also a nice touch--saves me a step to get it on my ipod for traveling.
I have only done the "Low Back and Sacrum," but this will be a daily staple. After a century (100 mile bike ride) weekend before last, the chirporactor didn't quite get my back in place. I can already feel the difference from one workout.
This is excellent for beginners because it is very slow moving and gentle. At the top of the screen, you always have the option to click for more specific instructions on each pose.
Movie Review: Viniyogatherapy VERY HELPFUL! Highly Recommend!!!

After having chronic low back and right leg pain for four years, I chose this DVD to help me recover from surgery. The stretches and exercises have helped me more than anything else! It's very relaxing and effective to release tension in the muscles.Movie Review: I thought I would fall asleep

Movie Review: Viviyoga Therapy for Low Back, Sacrum & Hips - Kraftsow
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased both of Gary Kraftsow videos and they were very similar so that wasn't expected. I'm relatively new to yoga so was trying to find a video that was slow enough for me to follow yet provided enough benefit to continue - both of these would fall into that category. Movie Review: Great for healing your back and then strengthening it
Summary: 5 Stars
My back started going out when I was in my early 40s. In the fall of 2006, when I was 51, it went out twice in a relatively short period, and the second time was very painful and debilitating. I started using practices from Gary's book, "Yoga For Wellness," to begin the healing process and made a lot of progress over a period of about a month.
In 2007, I attended a four-day class Gary gave based on this DVD and it's companion on practices for the upper back, shoulders and neck. I bought both DVDs and my back hasn't gone out or been tweaked since I began doing the practices.
Gary makes the point that you have to be consistent in your practice. He says it's like flossing your teeth. I do a modified version of practice 3 on this DVD about four times a week.
My office mate's back went out at about the same time as mine did in 2006. He complained for months that it was still giving him problems. Earlier this year, I lent him the lower back DVD, since I have the practice memorized and I put the audio versions on my MP3 player. He has been doing the practices ever since and reports a big improvement.
I love Gary's therapeutic approach and highly recommend these DVDs.
