20 Seconds of Yoga to Enjoy The Rest of Your Day
If you’ve ever been to a chiropractor, it may be no surprise that you were given exercise recommendations, nutrition advice, or benefited from other complementary therapies. The main goal of chiropractic care is spinal health and alignment, which is done through spinal adjustments and various soft tissue techniques. As a holistic approach to healing, chiropractic care focuses on the body as a whole working to ensure optimal wellness for patients. Among many additional treatments and therapies that may be recommended by a chiropractor, yoga is one of our favorites at Miami Sports Chiropractic & Yoga Center in Aventura.
I don’t always practice yoga on the beach. But when I do, it’s with a lab coat and stethoscope.
What is yoga?
Yoga is an ancient method of exercise, meditation, and breathing that dates back at least 5,000 years.

Side effects include shifting your emotional state to experience a calmer, happier, and more fulfilling life. But wait, there’s more:
Yoga also helps to improve balance
Increase energy
Lessen chronic pain
Reduce insomnia
Promote weight loss
Ease migraines
Boost immunity
Improve sexual performance
Increase self-confidence
Lower blood pressure
Decrease addiction drive
Improve breathing/asthma

…and the list could go on!
Why Combine Chiropractic With Yoga?
Chiropractic helps to decrease pain, restore proper motion to the spine, and improve overall health of the body. Yoga helps to support this on-going healing process by improving physical and mental balance.
Have you ever met someone who wasn’t physically flexible? Did that lack of flexibility extend out into their personality and ability to withstand the stressors of life?
When yoga is done correctly, such as with our teachers at Miami Sports Chiropractic & Yoga Center, who are trained to work with safe alignment and pre-existing injuries, it can greatly improve the strength of the physical and mental muscles that work to stabilize body and brain in alignment. Yoga is a perfect complement to your chiropractic care and will help lead you not only to less pain but to a healthier, happier life.
