Yoga for Migraines

February 24, 2014
 · No Comments

Did you know that there is some potential for relieving migraines through your yoga practice? This topic came up several times last week so I went to my primary source for therapeutic yoga poses – “Light on Yoga” by B.K.S. Iyengar – for some ideas.

You might try either the Nadi Sodhana breath – also known as Alternate Nostril Breath (no retention of breath for migraine sufferers); or Sitali breath – cooling breath.  Yoga asana for migraines includes Paschimottanasana – Seated Forward Fold, Uttanasana – Standing Forward Fold and both Shoulderstand and Headstand.

If you are not familiar with these techniques we recommend you work with an experienced yoga teacher for best results.
