Step 3
As you exhale down, slowly sink your lower back onto the mat.
Step 4 Iyengar Yoga for back pain
Slowly open your eyes, hug your knees towards your chest, roll over onto your right side and come up.
Step 5 Iyengar Yoga for back pain
Twisting asanas are very effective in relieving lower back pain. Keep your palms on either side of the chair, squeeze the brick in between your knees and roll your shoulders back. Make sure to keep your body aligned. Repeat on the other side.
Step 6 Iyengar Yoga for back pain
Belts, dupattas, scarves fixed on a window grill are good substitutes for the rope. Grip your palms and walk forward with the rope. Keep your feet together, roll back your shoulders and keep your elbows straight. Hold for about 15 to 20 seconds. Then walk back a bit and take both arms up.
Step 7 Iyengar Yoga for back pain
Another variation - Keep your left hand up and right hand down. Pull your navel in and up. Then change sides and repeat. Make sure to align your body so as not to put any added strain on the body.
Step 8 Iyengar Yoga for back pain
Leave one rope, hold the other rope, interlock your fingers and straighten both your elbows by walking forward. Grip your ankle bones and pull your knee cap up. Slowly walk back and release.

comment on Dave H's statement of "overlooking the pain": Please, never "overlook-the-pain"..Your body is telling you something, your body is talking to your mind..acknowledge your pain & work to relieve it. Find the tiny adjustments you need to make in in your personal asana practice to 'most near' approximate the pose without causing pain to appear. Relax & relieve the tension of the pain--Breath into the beginning edge of the pain, with healing energy of the mind & universe.. But don't "power-through" the pain..That is not what yoga is about..Yoga is about understanding the edges & your personal limits of your own individual body & working with & accepting what you are, -what you have..yoga is moving throught your asanas with ease, a calm face & attitude & a relaxation of tension.

[@krisano1prsn]

Agreed. I would be interested in knowing what a medical professional (one trained in anatomy&physiology, kinesiology, physics, strength&conditioning)thinks of yoga poses (asanas), especially as it relates to someone with cervical (disc), shoulder, and upper back issues. Unfortunately, most teaching yoga, do not have expertise or background in any of these areas. As such, it is scary when a teacher directs/pushes students to go further in a pose without such advanced knowledge (very scary!).

[@renib1159]

How right U r.. many more credentials should be required to be obtained BEFORE a person is allowed to teach yoga to a class of general population..& especially if teaching a class to special needs & post rehab populations.

[@krisano1prsn]

Yes, and a yoga certification literally means they passed the credentials required to teach at certain levels. It in no way qualifies them to make corrections or make adjustments based on a person's medical condition (guess that's why you sign a waiver prior to class), so be weary. There are a few teachers out there with a PT license/degree and those are the only ones I would trust.

[@renib1159]

- A Physical Therapy degreed person may be the answer for some circumstances/ & surely a medically educated & oriented instructor is an asset--but I would also want the yoga instructor be thoroughly educated in yoga intention, thought & movement, mission & fundamentals of its history & meaning..Some -(not all) of the yoga masters were excellent in providing indepth understanding of movement( kinesiology,of) & acknowledging muscle imbalances & asanas to correct such imbalances, & "dis-eases"&, -in fact, addressing complicated physical human issues in a physical-emotional-spiritual yogic way.
