Gentle Yoga for Arthritis

Over 50 million people in the United States alone struggle with arthritis, a painful and debilitating inflammation of the body's joints.

In the medical world, the focus of arthritis treatment is controlling the pain and minimizing any joint damage, while working hard to maintain quality of life. As a result, many doctors will recommend adopting a healthier lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular physical activity.
