Product Description

This guide helps readers to design a personal yoga programme which fits into their lifestyles. This updated edition shows how a few minutes of yoga every day can improve general health and fitness. There are step-by-step instructions for a basic yoga session, and treatments to more than 35 common ailments. Presented in two parts, the book begins with a comprehensive introduction to the origins of yoga, and the basis of yoga as a complementary healing therapy. Part One, "The Basic Session", provides a general programme to improve health and fitness. This can be tailored, using the chart of exercises, to suit individual requirements and to suit different levels of ability. The exercises are presented step-by-step, each with instructions accompanied by a detailed artwork. The routine starts with warm-up exercises and continues with yoga postures, relaxation techniques and breathing exercises, and includes advice on diet and lifestyle and meditation. Part Two, "The Ailments", focuses on yoga routines to treat over 35 specific conditions, from backache, rheumatism and arthritis, to varicose veins, obesity and headaches.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Comprehensive Introduction to Yoga Therapy, 30 Jun 2002

By A Customer

Yoga for Common Ailments is written by people knowledgeable in the field. The book covers a the components of a basic yoga session, and then goes into detail on what poses and relaxation / breathing techniques are suitable for various conditions.

The vast array of conditions covered includes: back pain, arthritis, jetlag, varicose veins, cancer, HIV, depression, stress and nasal allergies to name but a few.

The book also offers advice on diet and lifestyle.

All in all this book covers many topics, and has a good layout with many hand-drawn and photographic pictures.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fairly general tips for a variety of conditions, 9 Oct 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Yoga for Common Ailments (Paperback)

Has some nice hand drawn pictures tha are easy to follow.
Doesn't cover every medical conditionso you won't know if it will be of use to you until you buy it.
Would be a nice teaching reference aid perhap for a yoga teacher.
