 The best back therapy I've found November 1, 2004
I love yoga (Frisco, TX)
11 out of 11 found this review helpful
I have back problems from minor aches to severe nerve pinches, depending on how I sleep and how often I take (or don't take) breaks from my desk job during the day. No matter how my back feels at the end of the day, doing this video ALWAYS makes it feel better. I've found that it's gentle enough to do no matter how much pain I'm in (although obviously you have to modify it when you're really tweaked). Like other users have said, it helps faster than any medication treatment, and it's easier, cheaper, and faster than a massage or other therapy!

These comments respond to several made in earlier reviews.This video does more for my back pain than any medication doctors prescribed. It's a good idea to pre-view a new exercise video before you start. For this one you'll need a chair and a fabric strap of some kind (I use a bathrobe belt). Any exercise coach worth their salt will tell you if it hurts, don't do it. I certainly don't have the flexibilty Rodney displays, so I just do what I can and know that over time things will improve. When it's time to rewind, only go as far back as the beginning of the exercise segment so you don't have to watch the disclaimers and promotional announcements over and over.

From my personal and professional experience I can tell: this is not recommended if you ve a serious back problem, in that case go for "Somatics"...
Great for Back Flexibility-With a Tummy Tuck Bonus! February 16, 2004

I have been using this video for some time, and have found it to be a great way to stretch and strengthen the muscles in my back, especially my lower back. I have what is primarily a desk job, and this video has helped improve my posture significantly, as well as helping with my flexibility. As an added bonus, as my lower back muscles became stronger and posture improved, I noticed that my stomach was pulled in tighter and my spine was straighter. I highly recommend this video to anybody who sits at a desk all day-use it every other day for two weeks and see how you feel.Rodney Yee uses a clear style of presentation, but be sure to watch the video through a couple of times before trying it, so you don't keep trying to twist around and see what he's doing. The postures are done with a chair, and I found that a basic, plain old kitchen table chair worked great.
Great relief January 21, 2004

It's surprising how fast this really works. After a few days of doing this tape, I found the relief I needed. I can tell that as my flexibility increases it will help even more. I'm only 23, but recenty began having severe back problems, and this video helps faster than medications. Some poses aren't described as clearly as I would like them to be. Some positions or movements I'm not sure what he is asking. He also uses some terminology that is above beginner level. Overall, it's been wonderful to afford me the relief I was looking for, and after a few times through, I can understand better what he is asking.
