If you’re dealing with back pain, yoga may be just what the doctor ordered. Yoga is a mind-body therapy that’s often recommended to treat not only back pain but the stress that accompanies it. The appropriate poses can relax and strengthen your body. Practicing yoga for even a few minutes a day can help you gain more awareness of your body. This will help you notice where you’re holding tension and where you have imbalances. You can use this awareness to bring yourself into balance and alignment.

Lower back pain caused by either stiffness in the ligaments or muscles of the lower back or weak abdominal muscles. Poor posture and lack of exercise usually lead to tight and swollen back muscles, resulting in pain in this area. While middle back pain is often caused by muscle strain, arthritis, or tears in the ligaments. The most common reason is herniated (or slipped) disc, which often recurs. Herniated discs are usually the result of excess weight or incorrect posture. Muscle deterioration and pain in the upper back may result from a sedentary lifestyle, excess weight, or a weakening of muscle tone. Other cases include the fusing of vertebrae or the inflammation of muscles and tendons.
