Yoga has become very popular in recent years, and every fitness center offers yoga classes. However, a recent study in Taiwan pointed out that some people who practice yoga for a long time experience degeneration and wear of the spinal cartilage (intervertebral discs). Some practitioners in their 30s have already had their spines degenerated like those of a 60-year-old. Orthopedic doctors point out that practicing yoga correctly is good for the body, but yoga is not suitable for everyone. Practitioners should do it within their ability to avoid injuries. Doctors say that among people who attend yoga classes, there may be students who have practiced to different levels. If they try to do difficult movements just to catch up with students at a higher level, they may easily get injured. In addition, yoga is not suitable for everyone. People with high blood pressure, spinal problems, etc. should consult a doctor before learning yoga. "Hot yoga" (practicing yoga at 35 to 38 degrees Celsius) is more likely to cause an accelerated heartbeat and a large amount of water loss from the body. It is not suitable for heart patients, hypertensive patients, pregnant women and children. And when signing up for a yoga class, you should also check the reputation of the fitness center and the instructor to learn the correct postures.
