The doctors at Florida Spine Specialists advocate the use of yoga therapy as a complementary treatment to modern medicine. Through yoga therapy, patients are taught to slow down, breathe, and focus. As they are going through the healing process, many patients experience pain. Yoga therapy can help to alleviate some of the mental, physical, and emotional pain. The various poses and breathing techniques taught in yoga help to strengthen different areas of the body.
Yoga helps ease lower back pain by gently stretching and strengthening the muscles of the lower back and legs, and increasing blood circulation, which in turn brings healing nutrients to the injured tissues. Yoga is a safe and effective way to alleviate many forms of back pain or neck pain, and prevent ongoing problems.
Barb Tree will be teaching a gentle yoga therapy class every Saturdays 9-10 am and Thursday from 7-8 pm. She can also meet with patients individually at the clinic for private sessions. Yoga mats and other yoga material are provided onsite.
For more information and cost of class/sessions, please contact Florida Spine Specialists.
