Living Yoga - Back Care Yoga for Beginners

Another note for people who may have back pain similar to mine: I experience lower back pain due to carry a toddler around all day and to poor digestion (I have gallbladder & gas problems). This tape is great for this kind of pain as well as Living Yoga's AM Yoga for Beginner's

Doctors and tests couldn't figure out what was causing my lower back pain....my physical therapist wasn't making much progress...and I finally bought this tape. It has provided the most relief of ANYTHING I've tried. Who would believe that a beginning, gentle Yoga tape could give me so much relief. I'm a real believer now. It wasn't long til my back felt well enough to try the Power Yoga tape. This Back Care Yoga has really helped me pay attention to posture, and has helped get me in the habit of extending my body instead of slumping. Highly recommend.


Excellent, must have video!   July 31, 2001

My back remains pain-free thanks to this tape and Robin McKenzie's book, "7 Steps to a Pain Free Life" available at ....

I've been a regular chiropractic customer for several years due to chronic back pain. My back feels wonderful exercising along with this video. I use it for maintaining good back health, but also when my back goes out. A few months ago, when I was experiencing a lot of pain I followed this video daily for 4 days. The first day my back 'popped' (in a good way) several times during the yoga, the second day it 'popped' a little less, and by day 4 it didn't pop at all and I was pain-free! Last Saturday my husband was experiencing back pain, so he did the yoga exercises with this tape and he had immediate relief and has been pain-free since then. He thinks we need another copy of this video just in case something happens to the one we have.

This tape has saved me hundreds of dollars in chiropractic visits and more importantly my back feels so good after years of chronic pain.

I suffered a herniated disk a year ago, and found the exercises that the Dr's prescribed to be too boring to continue. This video has renewed my efforts in improving my back health, and I have since found myself sleeping better than ever, especially when this wonderful 20 minute work out is done right before bed time. I can take the audio tape and do my yoga at the beach, or camping, anywhere I have a chair, portable or otherwise. Very enjoyable and I have been enthusiastic to share this with all family/friends who suffer from back ailments. Easy to begin, yet certain poses give me goals to try and obtain over time.

My boyfriend and I have been working out a lot recently. We do weight training and/or aerobics four days a week and we wanted something to split up the week that would be low impact. This yoga video really hit the spot!

Additionally, I have scoliosis and my boyfiend has a lot of lower back pain since he is 6'3. We've found the video to be really helpful with pain reduction.

One last thing: unlike other yoga videos, Rodney does not bog the video down with all kinds of new age-y spiritual crap. We're doing the video for the stretching poses not the religious aspects associated with yoga and Rodney obliges.
