great!

[@karenrosa1161]

Thank you from 78 year old woman who has been sitting on the sofa, watching tv and smoking cigarettes. (and doing some painting and writing) And, surprise, my lower back hurts! I appreciate your energy and your kindness that comes through these exercises. Tomorrow starts a new day for me, sans cigarettes and with your chair yoga. Thank you again.

[@AnnSwansonWellness]

best of luck quitting the smokes. If you haven't tried patches before, mY e they'll help. Keep moving and you'll be surprised at the difference it makes. Again, good luck.

[@magenmiller6612]

I'm 24 years old and suffering from disk degeneration, sciatica, neuropathy, and systemic arthritis. This was a very calming experience and it brought me a lot of relief and stretch into all my sore spots. Thank you so much. I'm going to try this one daily.

Good for you. You are so young, you have your whole life ahead of you. Keep up the good work, you will see results with perseverance.

[@pamelasmith1947]

It always amazes me how much better I feel after doing just these few minutes of chair yoga!

[@leahtreck1083]

Aloha Ann, thank you so much for this very helpful video. I am a Senior and have been a professional dancer most of my life. I started Ballet, Jazz and Tap dancing classes when I was 10 years old. I also played drums professionally; my point is that I have been physically active until retirement and then a huge tumor the size of a watermelon grew rapidly in my tummy. In a nutshell, had surgery and it was removed along with a total hysterectomy🤦‍♀️. Fortunately it all was benign but I was in hospice for 3 months. It was touch and go with my life. Somehow I had a complete recovery but being bed ridden with so much abdominal pain for so long left me disabled, plus Scoliosis was progressing quickly along with arthritis. I’ve been in chronic pain for over 3 years now and mostly housebound and bedridden. I’m all bent over like like the letter C. I’m determined to turn this situation around and be able to walk straight again and am also changing my diet and adding supplements to my diet. I went from 5’2” to 48” (4ft.) in 3 yrs. Fortunately I was was able to start eating again and went from 89 pounds to my normal weight of 100 to 104 pounds.I am able to do all of these exercises in this wonderful video and have made a commitment to myself to challenge doing them everyday at least once, hopefully twice. Again, thank you Ann. Also, your peaceful background music is superb⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏🏼.

[@Marty_RA]

I have RA and my new meds are working so great this is the first time I’ve been pain free in 37 years. Imagine! I chose to celebrate doing my favorite thing - gardening. Oops, I’m weak and strained my lower back. These exercises helped. Thank you so much for this video.

[@carolynhilarski2553]

Thank you! Your instruction was so helpful at a very painful time...I plan to add your instructions to my daily schedule....

[@ginaturella2276]

Thank you so much. I've had such low back pain. It's constant. I know I've needed to do yoga but I was worried it would be too hard. This chair yoga was so helpful. Thank you.

[@JanTaylorEssentialimages]

So easy to do and great pain relief. I’m 75 years old, got up with an aching back today and this has really helped. Thank you ❤

[@juliemilroy6920]

Tweaked my bag yesterday and must get better before ski trip next week! This was perfect.

[@jo-annbance165]

I love how you cue in your videos. There is always just a enough information to move into a pose with ease and then further details are given on what to pay attention to. Also such a wonderful way to get us to notice our breath and ending in stillness.

[@AnnSwansonWellness]

I am so glad you enjoyed it, Jo-Ann :)

[@RonitJoseph-px4ol]

[@donnahall972]

I have just started your exercises routine…. Re the breathing…should I be taking in a big breath through the nose and out the mouth ….and when doing the exercises when should breathing out be done. At the beginning or finishing the exercise. I am 82, and have a back issue…… thanks Donna

Loved the arm variations, “low and slow”, and overall calming effects.

[@AnnSwansonWellness]

Thanks so much for joining me and commenting, Marianette :)

[@ivygreengoddess]

Thank you for this video. My lower back pain has returned which put a pause to my daily yoga. This routine has been really accessable for me and has been helping with my back pain. Thank you so much 🥰

[@anthonyhernandez3755]

This was so helpful. Thank you for guiding this practice.

[@briansturdy592]

Glad I came across you're website. Enjoy the chair yoga for lower back pain. 😀

[@AnnSwansonWellness]

Welcome, Brian!

[@jodieheuseveldt3194]

This was lovely! Just starting a program for myself is a huge step. I have RA and fibromyalgia and so out of shape with no core muscle strength. Definitely gonna check out your other videos

[@malindahoward2743]

I just did your practice for the first tie and immediately became a devoted follower.

[@AnnSwansonWellness]

Welcome, Malinda. I am so glad you are here!

[@LoriFCC6325]

I enjoyed this. It helped with my back pain

[@southernnaturalhairaffair7912]

I needed this! My lower back hurts so bad I can hardly walk. An MRI showed some deterioration in the spine in that area. How often would you recommend this exercise? Thank you!

[@AnnSwansonWellness]

Sorry to hear that. You can do this daily

[@warrenposternack8392]

That was an excellent session.

[@us380]

Thankyou so much I have so much back pain.

[@Bridget1957]

I was amazed how "worked" my back muscles felt. I need to build up the lower back muscles due to very weak lower back. This felt amazin.g

[@maggienewman9991]

I’m late to the party here, but this is just what I need most mornings while I’m drinking my coffee. Just enough to soothe back pain and loosen me up for the day. Thank you!

[@AnnSwansonWellness]

Welcome to the party, Maggie! I think you might enjoy these chair yoga videos too with your coffee :) kzbin.info/aero/PLRoMc382exGjUkKRlbjnEZPJQAmclZk7H

[@paulagabay9915]

I forgot I had subscribed this video is probably better for me than the stretches the doctor gave me for my Sciatica and low back pain.

[@AnnSwansonWellness]

I am glad you find it helpful! Definitely follow your doctors orders, but you also might enjoy this one for sciatica: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l567pXWnqJiEntE

[@evedutkiewicz3447]

I do not have a good office chair and my work bag is way too heavy. My lower back has been killing me. Thank you. I have some relief from the pain.

[@AnnSwansonWellness]

I am glad it helped, Eve! Thanks for letting me know, it means so much to me :)

[@luckytn]

Thank you. I feel better.

[@nneomaojiaku533]

This was a much needed exercise for work. Loved the advice to keep the final posture in muscle memory to be used throughout the day.

[@AnnSwansonWellness]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@belindagodfrey941]

[@helenanel6657]

Hi Ann I have RA was diagnosed at the age of 29, now close to 64. I’ve been with a RA specialist my whole life long. I recently started experiencing lower back pain and was diagnosed as having Scoliosis, painful😬to say the least and I find it very disabling. I just watched your video and will definitely do this but was wondering what exercises you would suggest to relieve the pain. Regards Helena
