Movie Reviews of Viniyoga Therapy for the Low Back, Sacrum & Hips with Gary Kraftsow
Movie Review: Stress and Pain Management
Summary: 5 Stars
I have alot of pain in hip area. I went to doctors to find some relief and was recommended to practice yoga. I wanted something that focused on my lower back and hips. After a quick search on Amazon, I found Viniyoga. I felt immediate results and the instructor takes the time to show the techniques and give info on why people are in pain. The DVD also gives you the options to vary the intensity of your workout. It's also very relaxing and I feel so much better. It will save you alot of money if you've been seeing doctors or going to classes to don't give you focus you need for these problem areas. A nice feature is the MP3 format you can download so you can practice anywhere!Movie Review: It's Okay.
Summary: 4 Stars
This DVD is okay. All of the exercises are simple you just have to watch it first and then try the exercises otherwise you might not know what he's talking about, if you're not familiar with yoga.
Movie Review: Very understandable, very helpful
Summary: 5 Stars
First, this is a high quality production. I mention that only because many yoga dvds are such low quality. Gary Kraftsow is a real pro -- the visual and voiced instructions by him are excellent. The theraputic advice is clear and to the point. He says in the intro that the only way to focus on each of these poses is to know what their purpose is, so the first section of the DVD is educational and informative, the second is a pose by pose description, and the third is three separate practices, about 30 minutes apiece.
Kraftsow also favors function over form -- a welcome relief from America's silly yoga Culture of Perfection. You do the poses to strengthen and heal your back, not to compete in some "pose off", a la Bikram Yoga.
Pose instruction is easy, and the poses are very basic, even for someone in the throes of back pain or who has never done any yoga before. The sessions are flow yoga style and there are three different workouts, focusing on different issues.
All in all, highly recommended. Namaste.
