How Yoga Can Help Back, Knee, and Shoulder Pain

Yoga for Real Life Pain

Pain doesn’t have to be your new normal. Whether you spend your days at a desk, on your feet, or recovering from an old injury, yoga offers simple, powerful tools to help. At Maximum Motion, our classes are designed to be safe, adaptable, and effective for all levels.

Back pain: Gentle stretches like Cat-Cow and supported Bridge pose release tension and strengthen the core, which supports your spine.

Knee discomfort: Building leg and hip strength in poses like Chair and Warrior II can take pressure off your knees.

Shoulder tightness: Simple movements like Eagle arms and gentle twists improve mobility and release built-up tension.

It’s not about bending into a pretzel: The goal is functionality, not flexibility. Every pose can be adapted to your comfort and mobility level.

Tip for readers: If you have a specific pain area, mention it to your instructor before class — small adjustments can make a big difference.
