I have always been a strong believer that you get what you pay for, especially when it comes to instruction.? As a certified and registered yoga teacher with the Yoga Alliance Registry I have proven that I have training by credentialed and respected individuals, exposure to teaching in front of other seasoned teachers and continuing credits.? You should always look for a well trained instructor ? ask questions about where their training came from ? keep in mind anyone can open up their own training school ? Yoga Alliance Registry makes sure that qualifying schools meet requirements for anatomy and physiology, and other components of competency for an instructor.? Of course, use your own good judgment and remember you are there to learn from your teacher not learn about your teacher ? the class should focus on proper alignment and modifications when needed.?? Here?s more info (if you take classes with me, much of the same info) on how to stay injury free?.
Orthopaedic Surgeon Dr. Michael Hausman Offers Commentary on Avoiding Hand and Wrist Compression Injuries Caused by Yoga
New York, NY ? November 19, 2012: Orthopaedic Surgeon Dr. Michael Hausman, Chief of Hand and Elbow Surgery at The Mount Sinai School of Medicine, is available to comment on avoiding specific hand and wrist injuries caused by yoga. Dr. Hausman has seen an increase in wrist nerve injuries caused by improper yoga form.
Performed properly and under supervision by trained teachers, yoga?s benefits include improvement in posture, flexibility and stress relief. However, if practiced incorrectly, common yoga poses such as downward facing dog may compress nerves and lead to repetitive strain and nerve injuries to the hand and wrist such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Improper positioning of the hands, can lead to compression injuries, strains, sprains, tears to hand and wrist tendons and ligaments.
Dr. Hausman can discuss simple solutions to prevent hand and wrist injuries such as:
? Spread the fingers wide when setting up a pose.
? Ensure the middle fingers are parallel to one another.
? Change hand position to help alleviate pain.
? Bring pressure into each of the fingers, to ensure that the leg muscles are engaged for proper weight distribution.
? If pain is present during the hand-supported poses, maneuver your hands into fists to distribute weight to the knuckles.
? Use props such as wedges, the rolled-up edge of a yoga mat or a thick blanket and hand barbells with square ends can help keep the wrists straight.
Dr. Hausman extolls the benefits of yoga to help people live a healthy lifestyle. ?The important thing is to be aware of your body, pay attention to form and do only the poses that your body will allow you to,? said Dr. Hausman.
Dr. Hausman has been interviewed extensively in national and local print, TV and radio outlets such as USA Today, Bloomberg, ESPN, The Los Angeles Times and The Wall Street Journal.
