2Yoga Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a bone condition that causes the
deterioration of bone tissue. Over time, this
condition causes bones to become thinner, more
brittle, and more likely to fracture.
3Ask an expert first Before looking for a yoga
class or an instructor, book an appointment with
your healthcare provider to find out what
exercises you can safely do and what you should
avoid. Please write down this information, and
show it to your yoga instructor.
4Even in Post Menopausal OP Yoga seems to be
particularly effective at helping postmenopausal
people improve and maintain bone density. In a
small 2016 study, 30 women, ages 45 to 62, with
postmenopausal osteoporosis did a one-hour yoga
session four days a week for six months. At the
end of the study, the participants' average
T-scores (a measure of bone density) had
significantly improved. Contact the orthopedic
doctor in Indore.
5Increased Bone Strength Yoga also uses
weight-bearing movementthat is, moves that make
your body work against gravitywhich has been
shown to encourage bone formation and increase
bone strength. This can help keep osteoporosis
from progressing.
Better coordination These physical benefits are
beneficial for people with osteoporosis because
improved coordination and balance can help
prevent falling, which is the leading cause of
fractures in people with osteoporosis.
6Multiple benefits Yoga is one such physical
practice that has been shown to improve agility,
strength, posture, and balance, which can help
reduce the risk of falls and fractures.
7The weight-bearing poses are also helpful in
maintaining or improving bone strength. One study
found that yoga can even reverse osteoporotic
bone loss. Contact the orthopedic surgeon in
Indore.
