Yoga Series! Episode 2: Yoga for Bone Strength

Treatment for cancer can affect bone density and lead to a weakening of bones. When we stimulate the bones by applying any pressure to the bones we stimulate the osteoblasts ( bone building cells). In yoga we stimulate bones anytime we stretch or put weight on an area of the body. Come and learn some tools to help build bone strength in targeted areas of the body and learn some simple poses you can do at home daily to stimulate your bones.
