Guest guest Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 Heat is good for a chronic injury but should be avoided in the initial acute stages. The injury at that point is already inflammed and plenty hot enough. Gentle and persistent movement is the best thing. There are some Scandanavian studies that suggest gentle long term movement of a joint in sessions that can be repeated for years can have dramatic results. I think this is part of the miracle of a dedicated yoga practice, especially with routines like the Sun Salutation. jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
