Abstract

Many declining physical and mental conditions are no longer considered to be age-related but are due to illness, lack of movement and limits of engagement. Besides mental and social engagement, Chair Yoga classes for Seniors offer a large variety of stretching, relaxation, and breathing techniques which have been scientifically proven to enhance physical mobility, minimize or alleviate pain, reduce high blood pressure, slow down the decline of organ function, help with arthritis, and many other conditions. Learn techniques to increase strength, joint mobility, calm the nervous system and to adapt classic yoga poses with the aid of a chair.
