Yoga for Arthritis

Yoga for Arthritis





The approach you’ll learn in this

workshop was developed at a leading university by a team of medical and healing

professionals. Combining ancient yoga practices with modern medical knowledge,

this program offers modifications to address the unique abilities and

limitations of people with rheumatoid and/or osteoarthritis. In a seven-year

randomized clinical trial at Johns Hopkins, program participation was

associated with improved arthritis symptoms, disease biomarkers, physical

fitness, psychological functioning, and quality of life.
