Yoga for spine alignment improves postural stability, spinal mobility, and segmental trunk control. A 2025 3D kinematic study found long-term yoga practitioners (over 5 years) demonstrated 50% lower segmental trunk movement (p < 0.001) compared to non-practitioners. Key Research...
Yoga for digestive health is an evidence-based practice that improves gastrointestinal function by stimulating the vagus nerve and enhancing parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) activity. A 2025 randomized controlled trial of 68 patients with diabetes found that a 20-minute yoga sequence...
