Official title
Safe and Effective Yoga Prescription of Seniors: Biomechanical Considerations
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This is an Intervention Development Study (IDS) to quantify the physical demands (using biomechanical investigation) of a 2-phase (beginning \& intermediate), 32-week yoga program designed for community-dwelling older adults. Additionally, the IDS will explore the adherence and adverse events of participation in the program. Data from the IDS will be used to develop evidenced-based yoga programs, which the investigators postulate will be associated with fewer musculoskeletal side effects compared to non-evidence based yoga programs. The investigators also postulate that evidenced-based tailoring of yoga for seniors will enhance adherence and efficacy. The programs developed during this IDS will be tested in an expanded, Phase II, Randomized Controlled Trial.
