ROSE ORIO Posted June 19, 2001 Report Share Posted June 19, 2001 I have a degenerative hip and a crushed 4th vertebrae which limits my exercise capabilities and yoga was suggested as an alternative exercise. What do you recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maitreya Posted June 25, 2001 Report Share Posted June 25, 2001 Hare Krishna Rose, I just saw your post. I take it the 4th vertabrae is in the lumbar section of the spine. I would seek advice from a physical therapist who knows your particular situation well. You should be directed to a yoga teacher that really understands the nature of your injury as well as yoga. Various yoga postures may be contraindicated in your situation or they may need some modification. Someone maybe excellent at teaching hatha yoga but may not know how to deal with the particulars of your case. Good luck Rose and let me know how it goes. Hare Krishna, Maitreya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
