Does yoga make you fat if you don't do it right?
Yoga is very popular in Guangzhou in recent years. It is considered as a new sport, which can not only slim down and shape, but also improve the flexibility of the body and calm the mind. Deeply loved by white-collar workers, teachers and students. However, when a hospital in Taiwan Province Province recently scanned the spine of a group of experienced yoga enthusiasts, it was found that two-thirds of the testers had serious wear and degeneration of the lumbar vertebrae and cervical vertebrae, and even the spines of yoga practitioners in their thirties had degenerated to the degree of sixties and seventies. Guangzhou orthopedic doctors said that citizens who were injured due to improper yoga practice often came to seek medical treatment, and yoga instructors were "restless" because of excessive hip sprain.

Guotai Hospital of Taiwan Province Province recently gave magnetic vibration to 18 experienced yoga lovers to understand the influence of regular yoga practice on the spine. Zheng Qingming, director of the Advanced Medical Imaging Examination Center of the hospital, said that many movements of yoga, such as backward bending, forward bending and waist twisting, will cause severe curvature of the spine. In order to improve the flexibility of the body, many people challenge difficult movements, resulting in excessive strain on the spine. "Some people are in their thirties, but magnetic resonance scanning shows that they look like the spines of people in their sixties." He said that if you don't exert yourself properly, practicing yoga for a long time will lead to premature aging of the spine.

Zheng Qingming explained that the compression between vertebrae will spread to the nerve line and cause sciatica. If you continue to practice without knowing that the spine is damaged, the result will be a compression fracture of the spine. If the cervical vertebra cartilages due to improper practice, continuing to do shoulder and neck handstands at this time is likely to break your neck.

Many hospitals in Guangzhou said that patients with yoga injuries abound. Li Wanlin, director of acupuncture department of Huarui Hospital affiliated to Southern Medical University, said that a yoga instructor in his thirties came to the hospital last year and talked nonsense at his ass. After some communication, I realized that he sprained his ass while practicing yoga. It was so painful that he couldn't sit still or sleep. After the doctor checked, he found that his ass had been sprained many times, but he never paid attention to it, thinking that it was a backache caused by excessive practice.

Coincidentally, the Department of Orthopaedics of Guangdong Second Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine recently accepted a 30-year-old female yoga instructor. The lady said that because more and more people practice yoga, her value is also rising, and she goes to several venues every day. Not only from early education until late at night, but sometimes before warming up, you have to start doing actions. Not long ago, she suddenly felt pain in her lumbar spine and it was inconvenient to turn around, so she stopped working to see a doctor. After diagnosis, the doctor found that her lumbar facet joint was dislocated. If not treated in time, it will easily lead to lumbar disc herniation or compression of lower limb nerves, which will cause inconvenience in movement.

According to Dr. Fan Dehui, head of orthopedics department of No.2 Middle School Hospital, "There are many such patients. The oldest is a mother-in-law of 7 1 year. After practicing yoga for three years, she challenged difficulties and strained her knee ligament, which made her want to do physical therapy. "

Don't be careless after practicing backache.

Director Li Wanlin said that from a medical point of view, yoga can improve the strength of muscles, tendons and ligaments. However, there are many kinds of yoga classes in the market at present, and excessive pursuit of difficult movements leads to chronic pain such as shoulder, neck and lumbar spine. He said that the injured parts of yoga enthusiasts are concentrated in the waist, neck and legs, and ligaments are the most common one. Most people are demanding the difficulty and perfection of the action. But some people who already have lumbar spondylosis are likely to get worse after practicing yoga.

Some people often feel back pain after practicing yoga. The doctor reminded that if the pain lasts for two days, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible so as not to delay your illness.

It is difficult to guarantee the safety of private yoga studios.

The popularity of yoga has brought a large number of yoga gyms. Professional and large-scale fitness centers certainly won the first place, and the slightly smaller ones are not far behind. Even in large communities, private courses are offered. Yoga is now the most respected sport for white-collar workers. After the chat, let's talk about who overcame which difficult moves. But they heard that improper yoga practice would hurt their spine, and they were too scared to ask reporters why. A young lady who usually attends a private school in the community even said that she would drop out of class.

Miss Ding works in a foreign bank. As employee welfare, the company cooperates with a fitness center to organize employees to practice yoga, with about 30 people in each class 10 yuan. "That teacher has a good figure and can do many difficult movements. Many colleagues go for beauty, body shaping and weight loss. " Miss Ding told reporters, "But I just want to relax my ligaments. For difficult movements, I do what I can."

The community yoga studio is even more successful. Click on many community forums, and there are posts about starting classes. The teacher of a yoga class in Jing Jun New Town said that only about 8 to 0 students registered in this class. She admits that she doesn't run a professional yoga life house, but because she graduated from the Dance Academy and has been practicing yoga for more than five years, "she should be able to guide students to practice step by step".

Miss Li, a citizen, told the reporter that she practiced in a private yoga studio in the community because she was greedy for convenience and cheapness. But after hearing that improper yoga practice can easily hurt her spine, she made up her mind to change to a professional yoga studio to avoid unnecessary injuries.
