Rheumatoid arthritis relief

A recent pilot study revealed that as little as 12 sessions of yoga significantly improved the conditions of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. A total of 47 patients were enrolled, of which 26 undertook yoga sessions, while 21 were on regular arthritis treatment.

Some patients in the yoga group were able to decrease or discontinue RA medications. The study was funded by the Emirates Arthritis Foundation. Has anyone with rheumatoid arthritis practiced yoga with similar results?
