Knees and yin yoga

Post by shelley stratton »

I have a friend who has a knee that has had many injuries due to sports..she is now middle aged and wears a brace due to loose ligaments and the brace helps her in walking as well as in work and to reduce pain. How or what poses would be helpful for her in yin? She states her only option is to wear the brace or have surgery as told by her physician. [

Hi Shelley. I am sorry to hear about your student's problems. Yin yoga and knees has been discussed a few times in this forum, so perhaps I can point you to these articles/threads, and if you still have questions after reading these, please let me know. Cheers, Bernie
