Hello,
I’m looking for expert advice on which asanas to avoid and which ones to focus on when practicing yoga with a long head biceps tenosynovitis?
I typically practice Vinyasa Yoga at an Intermediate level, but I have not practiced in a while given the shoulder/arm injury.
I have now been given the green light to start exercising, and I’m desperate to get back to my exercise routine, however, I want to be careful and mindful to avoid aggravating the area, as the shoulder/arm is still healing and in a bit of pain.
I have been advised by my doctor to focus on function, mobility and strengthening the traps.
She said yoga and pilates are both good for it, but I just want to understand what specifically I should/shouldn’t focus on.
P.S. I also have tendinitis in the fingers of the same arm, but should not be as bothersome for yoga practice.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated it!
Thanks!
Cathy
