Back Pain Management Yoga Training Actually Gives Better Relief Than Chiropractic

Study from the U.K. reports that a 12-week basic yoga group training program improves back function more than exercise and manipulation, cognitive-behavior treatment and six sessions of 1-to-1 Alexander technique.

All of these simple, practical treatments are more effective than chiropractic treatment – and much less expensive. Prior research has supported education as one of the most important things you can do to get faster back pain relief.

Findings published in the November, 2011 Annals of Internal Medicine journal show that many people with chronic back pain could get effective pain relief – NOT with surgery or injection therapy – BUT with yoga. Check out the abstract at http://annals.org/content/155/9/569.abstract
