Fitness and Exercise: Yoga for Osteoporosis- Advanced

Osteoporosis is a health condition that weakens the bones making them fragile and more likely to break. The origin of the word is from the Greek language to mean ‘porous bones.’ Bones naturally have some empty space in them to allow them to bend and flex. Those with Osteoporosis or low bone mass have larger spaces and less bone density – predisposing them to fractures and other bone injuries, especially in the hip, spinal vertebrae and some peripheral joints such as the wrists.
