Relief from pain.

The source of pain can be different conditions and diseases; and yoga, as scientific data show, in some cases can be one of the means that relieve pain. With the participation of 42 people aged 24 to 77 years, scientists conducted an experiment to find out how yoga can relieve the condition of people with carpal tunnel syndrome (pain in the hands and wrists due to pinched nerves between muscles). After eight weeks of practicing with practices twice a week, the strength of pain sensations decreased by almost half. A similar study was conducted by scientists from the United States, inviting people with osteoarthritis to participate; after two months of weekly 90-minute practices, they felt much less pain in their knees.
