For Pregnant Women, Benefits of Yoga Outweigh The Risks
In a news release by the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS), orthopaedic surgeon Dr. Rachel Rohde stated that “Women who are expecting can benefit greatly from exercise, especially yoga — they just need to be aware of their limitations. A pregnant woman’s body goes through a lot of changes that will alter the way she practices yoga, whether she is a veteran or a beginner.” The AAOS concluded that overall, the benefits of a yoga regimen outweigh the risks for pregnant women. However, the organization stressed that maintaining correct alignment is critical to ensuring general safety and avoiding muscle or joint injury. The AAOS says that if performed properly, yoga affords expectant mothers a good opportunity to build strength and flexibility, while achieving a measure of relaxation and breath control.
