Tuesday Yoga for Easing Back Pain with Gentle Beginners Yoga with Gail
Interesting Study: New Study Adds Growing Evidence that Yoga and Meditation Can Reduce Chronic Pain. I can attest to that study, as it has helped me with my chronic back pain!
The study echoes previous findings on the benefits of yoga and meditation for chronic pain published in 2016 in the prestigious Journal of the American Medical Association.
“The bottom line is that patients are seeking new ways to cope with chronic pain and effective non-pharmaceutical treatments are available,” says Dr. Marske. “Our findings show meditation and yoga can be a viable option for people seeking relief from chronic pain.”

Back pain is the 2nd most sited reason people go to the doctor
Back pain has a high occurance in veterans for a number of reasons
And they are prescribed pills but it doesn’t really help.
Then comes fatigue, depression & quality of life goes down.
Yoga can actually help the back pain
45% of veterans have military-connected disability
8% of adults in the US have back pain at some part of their life &
30% of people in the US in the next 3 months will have a short course of back pain
So this effects everyone.
This method of exericise ** reduces intensity of pain, depression, fatigue & medication use. ** pain interference with daily life. Quality of life & self-efficacy both went up with regular yoga practice.
