Guest guest Posted June 4, 1999 Report Share Posted June 4, 1999 I didn't get to finnish! He is having a really hard time at school. Failing Math. He will more than likely not be able to " graduate " with his 8th grade class because of this. Of corse he will go to high school but still it is a big deal. (maybe more for me than him) He does not let us help at all with his work and carries the burden his self. His teacher does not understand but that is also because I have not required any special cercomstances for him. I have talked to her but she treats him like any other student.Schools almost out 6/22. So if we ca n just keep the depression under control. Next year we will seek help for him in his classes. Vivian in Wa.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2005 Report Share Posted June 11, 2005 Lizzie, I think you will find this article very useful. It also translates " Asana " to " Med Speak " , so your surgeon will be better able to advise you. The article references particular surgical techniques in relationship to specific asanas and precautions. http://www.yogajournal.com/practice/596_1.cfm The article is by Cole who is based at the Iyengar yoga center, North County Yoga center in Solana Beach California This is important because there are different surgical methods used and these actually have opposite precautions. The more common and prevalent method, creates the famous " 90 degree rule " but other surgical approaches, bending over that way is actually a prescribed exercise (it was for me). However other methods are more precautionary. Its all in that article. I think that one can and should practice yoga after hips but do so conservatively. Don't go to extremes that involve the hips and might make the artificial joint " Hyper mobile " . This article will give you very good tools to discuss with your surgeon EXACTLY what is good and not so good. As with all things post-op, being especially careful and not pushing will give you the best chance of long term success. Good Luck.
