Yoga can relieve menopausal symptoms

With the popularity of yoga in China, people in the yoga industry have launched the "Ten Thousand People Practice Yoga to Welcome the Asian Games" campaign. Health experts say that yoga not only exercises muscles but also regulates autonomic nerves. For women with menopausal autonomic nerve dysfunction, it is advisable to practice yoga to make themselves healthier.

Doctors and reporters told reporters that yoga movements are static confrontational muscle training, which can help stretch muscles and ligaments, and have a certain pain-relieving effect on patients with neck, shoulder, waist and leg pain; on the other hand, yoga movements are slow, combined with breathing and meditation, which can help regulate the central nervous system. For menopausal women, it can help regulate the autonomic nerves, improve anxiety and tension, and adjust endocrine systems.

However, Director Lu also reminded that yoga practice should pay attention to what you can do. As long as there is muscle confrontation, the purpose of exercise will be achieved. Don't force yourself and your body to do too difficult movements. There was once a 32-year-old female yoga enthusiast. During yoga class, the coach felt that her head was not low enough and helped her press it. She felt numb in her hands at that time, and then she had pain in her shoulders. It turned out that it was caused by inadvertent force. Disc herniation.

Director Lu reminded that those who have been diagnosed with disc herniation should tell their coaches during practice to avoid high twisting and forward flexion movements. If they feel their hands, feet and legs numb and painful during practice, they should be vigilant; patients with knee pain should not sit cross-legged during practice, which will increase the burden on the knee joint.
