Yoga/Stretching

A yoga practice unites body, mind and spirit. Yoga is often done in group classes consisting of three main components: breathing exercises, body poses and meditation. Through a series of positions, all the muscle groups in the body can be strengthened and stretched. Through breathing exercises and meditation, yoga seeks to bring balance between the body and the mind. When practiced regularly, it can help you relax, reduce stress, strengthen your body and improve flexibility.

Studies suggest that yoga can help with:

  • Anxiety, depression and insomnia
  • Arthritis
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome
  • Chronic low back pain
  • Diabetes
  • High blood pressure
  • Symptoms of menopause
 

Yoga improves sleep, mood and overall quality of life. It has also been found to reduce the risk of falls in older adults, and improve lung function in people with asthma.

Progressive Health offers yoga/stretching classes for all levels, as well as one-on-one yoga consultations. Call today to find out more!
