| Yoga Poses for Knee Pain |
|
|
|
Knee pain can be alleviated through practice of both yoga postures that stretch and strengthen the muscles around the knee joint. Make sure that the knee stays in line with the ankle and does not twist in or out. Avoid seated postures that have the knee turned out to the side (like bound angle, seated head to knee). When doing postures with the knees on the floor, make sure you use a blanket or other padding so you do not feel any pain or intense pressure.

Whether things get better or worse depends to a considerable extent on our own actions. The recommendation of a yoga practice follows the principle that through practice we can learn to stay present in every moment, and thereby achieve much that we were previously incapable of. T.K.V. Desikachar |
Ahimsa, the yogic practice of non violence must be adhered to when engaging in the practice of hatha yoga. Respect your body's limitations and inner wisdom, if something feels wrong or dangerous, please do not do it.
Please consult your health care practitioner before starting a yoga, pranayama or other exercise program.
