Before Ravan got diabetes I used to go to Yoga 5 -6 times a week.
Yoga saved me! I was in an accident 18 yrs ago & herniated several discs. I had really bad sciatica Falling down, using a walker. Physical therapy & Chiropractic didn't help.
Yoga did. Dr. wanted to fuse my spine, I said no surgery! After a few months of going to Yoga I had no pain & got better each day. I'll continue to go as long as I am able!
2 yrs ago I had an Xray of my spine. Dr wanted to know what I was doing for severe pain. He said I had nothing between my discs from my neck down . It was bone on bone. Severe spinal stenosis.
I told him I don't take any meds at all I do Yoga. He said that was amazing!
