The Joint Freeing Series is a practice I use regularly in my Yoga Therapy sessions. You can practice it all or isolate parts of it to fit with those painful parts in your body.
However, this practice not only impacts the painful and stiff joints in our body, but extends to even impact the mind. Read it’s benefits below and then why not try it out? A link the video recording can be found at the end.
1.Systematically loosens all joint movements.
2. Heightens sensitivity and awareness in movement.
3. Moves each joint through full range of motion, which can enhance joint mobility and relieve joint pain.
4. Allows observation and diagnosis of comparative areas of freedom and areas of restricted motion.
5.Isolates muscles for comparison of strength and stamina.
6. Alleviates conditions associated with poor circulation.
7. The synovial fluid in the joint is moved which enhances vascular circulation.
8. The series removes discomfort and instability by freeing joints and relieving pain.
9. It is a good series of movements for those with limited mobility, for example, through injury or arthritis.
10. Allows us to practice asana as instructed by Patanjali in the Yoga Sutras; “asana is a pose which is steady and comfortable”.
11. Helps restore sattva (harmony/equilibrium) to body & to mind.
12. Fine-tunes sensitivity to pranic (energetic) flow in body.
13. Opens up rajasic (over-active) and tamasic (stagnant/stuck) vrittis (thought-waves) in the body: that is, energetic mental-emotional blockages held in physical layer.
14. Pacifies Vata dosha to bring calm and balance to the mind and nervous system.
If you have any joint pain or stiffness, a Yoga Therapy session will give you a personalised little Yoga routine to help ease pain and free up range of motion. A personalised Ayurveda programme of nutritional and herbal prescriptions can also help to ease inflammation and stiffness from the inside out.
Why not schedule a DISCOVERY CALL to find out how a personalised Yoga and Ayurveda programme can help your joint pain and inflammation?
