Yoga-related injuries are of increasing concern as the use of yoga continues to rise.
The aim of the following study is to examine whether a national sample of yoga practitioners would report discontinued use of yoga due to injury from the practice, assess what injuries resulted in discontinued use, determine what injuries were most common and identify injuries requiring medical attention.
Secondary data analysis of a nationally representative sample of adults in the United States (n = 23,393).
Less than 1% of individuals who had ever practiced yoga (n = 2230) reported an injury from yoga that led to discontinued use. Of those reporting injury, less than one-third (n = 4) reported seeking medical attention. The most common side-effect was back pain. Approximately, half of those reporting back pain sought medical attention.
Injury due to yoga is an infrequent barrier to continued practice and severe injury due to yoga is rare.
随着瑜伽的使用持续增加,与瑜伽相关的损伤日益受到关注。
以下研究的目的是调查全国范围内的瑜伽练习者样本是否会报告因练习瑜伽受伤而停止使用瑜伽,评估哪些损伤导致停止使用,确定哪些损伤最常见,并识别需要医疗关注的损伤。
对美国具有全国代表性的成年人样本(n = 23393)进行二次数据分析。
曾经练习过瑜伽的个体中(n = 2230),不到1%报告因瑜伽受伤而停止使用。在报告受伤的人中,不到三分之一(n = 4)报告寻求医疗关注。最常见的副作用是背痛。报告背痛的人中约有一半寻求医疗关注。
瑜伽造成的损伤是继续练习的罕见障碍,因瑜伽导致的严重损伤很少见。
