FAQs 

Whenever I give a yoga therapy session (e.g. someone with lower back pain), I like to imagine the client will ask me a bunch of questions.

So, I studied the subject and made notes in FAQ format (see below). Once I’ve completed my FAQs, I read one, close my eyes and answer it the best I can. I open my eyes to see how much detail I got right. If I missed anything, I repeat the process until I get it right.

This gives me huge confidence when giving a one-to-one session. There’s nothing like diligent preparation to give you confidence when going into a one-to-one session with a client. Though I always tell my clients that I’m not a doctor, and if they have any concerns they should consult their doctor.

Below are the Yoga for lower back pain FAQs….

“Can yoga improve my lower back?”

In January 2017 the NHS wrote an article on their site called: Yoga may improve lower back pain. A major review of medical evidence found that yoga can help relieve the agony of back pain. The main message of the report was the importance of keeping active as much as possible (people who remain active are likely to recover from their lower back pain more quickly). An article by the Daily Mail reporting on the review says: practising yoga is twice as good as other exercises at helping discomfort.

Sciatica is a sensation that can manifest itself as moderate to severe pain in your back, buttocks, and legs. You may also feel weakness or numbness in these areas. Sciatica is a symptom caused by an underlying injury to your sciatic nerve or an area that impacts the nerve, such as your vertebrae, which are the bones in your neck and back.
