Increase the Benefits of Yoga Sessions

Muscle soreness after Yoga practice may tell you that you’ve pushed yourself too much the day before or that your positioning was not quite right. There is one thing you can do after the session to ready yourself for the next session – self-massage.

Massage is a natural complement to yoga. Massage after your yoga session not only helps you relax and stave off subsequent soreness, it also can improve the hormonal, lymphatic, circulatory and energetic benefits of the poses.
