Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the Arthritis Foundation YMCA Aquatic program on women with arthritis. The experimental group, which was composed of 4 women (age range=63-72 years, x=65.9 years), completed the 7 week aquatic exercise program. Six women (age range=34-77 years, x=52.9 years) who were members of the Arthritis Foundation's support group and were not participating in regular aquatic exercise, comprised the control group. All women were volunteers and were diagnosed with some form of arthritis. Pretests measured the following variables: hand strength using a baseline hand dynamometer; functional ability with a 150 foot timed walking test and a 13 stair climb which was timed and scored with a Functional Independence Measure (FIM) score; and pain measured with a horizontal visual analogue scale. For 7 weeks the experimental group participated in the Arthritis Foundation YMCA Aquatic Program and the control group maintained normal activities of daily living. Posttests for the same variables were conducted at the end of 7 weeks. A repeated measured ANOVA at the .05 a level was used to find differences between the control group and the experimental group for each of the variables. There was a significantly higher pain rating for the experimental group throughout the study. No other significant differences were found. Although there were no significant physical improvements, the subjective reports from the experimental groups indicated a positive physical and emotional benefit.

Download or read book Yoga Therapy for Arthritis written by Dr Steffany Moonaz and published by Singing Dragon. This book was released on 2018-12-21 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yoga therapy is commonly used for the management of arthritis, but often focusses exclusively on adaptation of the physical poses and on structural solutions. This book moves beyond the traditional routines to present yoga as a lifestyle designed to improve quality of life and overall well-being for individuals living with arthritis and rheumatic conditions. By incorporating the ancient practices of yoga as both physical and mental exercises involving a model of 5-koshas or sheaths (physical, energetic, mental/emotional, wisdom, and spiritual), the yoga therapy practice presented here will help reduce pain and shift the perspective of the individual living with arthritis. This therapy uses a whole-person approach that employs a broad range of tools to address the biopsychosocial effects of arthritis through the application of yoga practices and philosophy. Useful as a guide for people living with arthritis, this book is full of inspiration for self care along with instructions for yoga teachers and medical professionals to guide their clients using this whole-person perspective.
