Have you investigated instructors in the area that may be experienced in teaching students with RA? My mom has it and I have been trying for years to get her to go to the instructor I found in our area. Yoga can be immensely helpful in learning to live with RA. So long as you practice with a qualified instructor. Otherwise you could do more damage. Good Luck! Samantha |

1. There is nothing new about this condition. It is known for years. And, there is definitely you can do something about it, very easily perhaps.
2. ONLY doing Yoga exercise will not do much in this case. It will be a great contributor, but only partially.
3. You will have to change the life style, no doubt. Otherwise, it is going to be incomplete improvement.
4. And, also you should change the perspective on life.
5. 3 and 4 are the key elements, even more than Yoga Exericse, for your this condition.
Best Luck
