Can yoga help with urinary issues like weak flow, intermittent flow by strengthning the bladder?

Ans: Hi Vikas, Many people find sciatica relief with yoga, as certain yoga stretches relieve the pressure felt on the nerve. These include Pigeon Pose, Downward Facing Dog, Cobra, Seated spinal twist, child pose, and also standing forward bend. Do note that individual experience tends to vary, so please listen to the body and don't force any stretches that don't feel comfortable. All the best!

Ans: Mindfulness, controlled breathing, Practicing physical postures and most importantly Practicing meditation can bring harmony between the mind, body and spirit.
These age old techniques help tackle several
lifestyle disorders, including issues related to erectile dysfunction. It is the unique mind - body connect that yoga recognises which can help people become more aware of their bodies, minds, and emotions. This self-awareness allows them to better understand and manage stressors, ultimately reducing the negative impact on erectile function. Practicing under a qualified yoga teacher can make a huge difference and also using Ayurveda to support the cause will be even better.

Ans: Namaste!
Practicing yoga will help strengthen the pelvic muscles which in turn will tone the muscles around the urinary bladder. Stretching exercises strengthen muscles that support the bladder and other pelvic organs. Practicing Pranayam will also help improve blood flow throughout the body, which helps keep the pelvic area healthy.

Practicing asanas will over a period of time help you greatly because Yoga postures will help correct your alignment. Asanas like the Downward Facing Dog or Ashok mukhya svanasana and Standing Forward Fold or pada hastasana can help relieve the pressure on your stomach and esophagus and prevent the onset of acid reflux.
