This review is from: The Book of Exercise & Yoga for Those with Osteoporosis: Using Movement & Meditation for Better Bones, Balance, and Posture (Plastic Comb)
I'm a yoga teacher who is starting to specialize in the elderly. Some of the books for balance and osteoporosis in particular are simply too advanced for the people who have the greatest need. All can benefit greatly from this book. But those who have had cancer, bone injuries or advanced osteoporosis often can't perform the exercises aimed at healthier and more fit people who are interested more in prevention.
This book has quite substantial sections offering a wide variety of exercises aimed at those with the most restricted movement as well as those ready for more challenging exercises. I was particularly pleased with those which could be performed from a chair. This is a life-changing book. It strengthens muscle strength, improves balance and posture, so that they can be more mobile and lead more independent lives. They look better, feel better physically and emotionally. I'm convinced that these exercises can help prevent falls and serious injury, which can have such devastating consequences. I can't recommend this book more. |
