Do you have osteoporosis? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young medical minute. Yoga is a great way to increase flexibility and aid in mental health. Before now, it was believed that yoga was a great way to help relieve symptoms of osteoporosis. However, that may not be the case. New research out of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN found that if you suffer from osteoporosis, some poses may cause bone injuries or further existing tissue and bone damage. It’s important to remember that not all yoga poses are bad. Some of them can be modified to prevent these types of injuries. If something feels painful, stop. If you suffer from osteoporosis, talk to your doctor before starting new exercise programs.
