2.0 out of 5 stars Solid, but the talking goes on for a bit too much, October 19, 2005
By 
Le Creuset (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tai Chi For Back Pain (DVD)
I buy these DVDs for senior citizens (~75 years old) who are looking to exercise. One of my seniors has back pain, so this was a very intriguing DVD. Overall, Dr. Lam does a good job. But there is way too much talking interspersed throughout and this actually annoys the one senior citizen I got this DVD for. So at least from her, she did not like it. I personally liked his gentle techniques. Overall, I'd hope that someone else produces another DVD for people with back pain (so many of us are out there) that is a bit more movement centered rather than talking centered.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good DVD, October 25, 2005
This review is from: Tai Chi For Back Pain (DVD)
I've had periodic bouts with back spasms and back pain for the past 6 years. I'm very lazy when it comes to doing excercises. I'd rather play tennis instead. I've had this DVD for over a year but never really did the exercises. As soon as my back got better, I would forget about it or doing any excercise. This past episode of back pain made me watch this DVD again. The DVD is informative and has interviews with back Drs and physical therapists. They attribute back pain to muscle imbalances. The video shows a shortened version of Tai Chi designed to develop the core/stabilizing muscles of the body, along with improving the posture and increasing flexibility. The instructions were very patiently explained and easy to follow. The positions are easy to learn and did not strain my back.

I don't know how long I will keep doing these exercises. However, I do enjoy it. And I think it helps.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great! Glad I bought it, November 27, 2009

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Tai Chi For Back Pain (DVD)
I had very tight muscles and pain in the buttocks and leg. The stretches that the chiropractor gave me reinjured the muscles. The gentle streches worked! There were times that I had some pain and after I did the exercises they pain was gone or nearly gone. It seemed a bit slow at first (talking between segments). However after the first few sections it goes a bit faster. There's also a front and back demo of the entire form for learning to put the segments together. I highly recommend this DVD.

Purchased from Amazon - all ways the best for delivery and ease of ordering.
