We do not jump into intense backbends here. Instead, we start with foundational, low-impact movements like Marjaryasana (Cat-Cow) to gently mobilize your spine and release tension. My focus is entirely on your alignment. If you hear me say 'Nimma bennannu straight aagi itkolli' (keep your back straight) during a session, it is because correct posture is the first, non-negotiable step to healing your back safely. ### A Therapeutic Approach to Recovery Unlike general fitness yoga, our spinal health sessions are specifically designed for recovery. Whether you suffer from recurring lower back pain, tightness in the upper back, or stiffness caused by long working hours, the goal is not to push your body to its limit. It is to create space and stability in the spine. We build strength gradually. You will learn to integrate poses like Bhujangasana (Cobra Pose) for gentle extension and Supta Matsyendrasana (Supine Twist) to release deep-seated tension. Every sequence is curated to decompress the spine while strengthening the core muscles that support it. ### Safety and Contraindications My priority is your safety. Every session includes a check for contraindications before we begin. If you have a slip disc, hernia, or a history of recent spinal surgery, we will skip or modify the poses. You will learn how to use simple props like chairs or folded towels to support your practice. We focus on what your body can safely do today, not what you might achieve months from now. ### What You Will Learn * **Proper Alignment:** Moving the body in ways that protect your discs rather than straining them. * **Breathwork:** Using deep breathing to calm the nervous system, which directly reduces the experience of chronic pain. * **Functional Strength:** Developing core muscles to offload the pressure from your lower back. You are not here to force your body into a pose. You are here to heal it. ## About Yoga for Cure I am Neha, and I started 'Yoga for Cure' because I wanted to provide a safe space for people to heal without aggressive, one-size-fits-all workouts. I don't believe in forcing your body into shapes. My classes are about listening to your limits and building a foundation that lasts. Let's get your alignment right, together.
