Yoga and the band: any risk of slippage?



Recommended Posts

I posted this is the main forum yesterday and no one answered me, so I'm trying again here.

I just recently took up power yoga and am concerned that some of the moves could increase the risk of slippage because they can cause your internal organs to shift.

Has anyone heard anything about this or know if yoga is safe with the band?

Thanks!

this is an interesting question. I wanted to start doing yoga ... I dont know what the difference is between yoga and power yoga but I would like to know? Have you asked your doctor ? Or found an answer ?

I have tried out some hatha yoga dvd's at home and haven't had any issues, but this may be a good question for the doc. I'd like to know, considering I liked the dvd's and would like to continue to do them.

My reply is really not about yoga,.. but i was afraid to do crunches and i told the nurse that does my fills and thaught it was funny, saying its okay to do cruches just listen to your body thats all.. Also im on a womens kickball team and i got hit couple time on my port area,.. is that bad..

I wouldn't think that it was good to get hit in the port area, but if you aren't having any pain, I wouldn't give too much thought to it...

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
