Yoga Day Tampa Bay this Saturday

NEW YORK, New York, United States (Reuters Health) - Regular yoga classes could help people with a common heart rhythm problem manage their symptoms while also improving their state of mind, a new study suggests.

According to the American Heart Association, about 2.7 million people in the US have atrial fibrillation (AF), in which the heart's upper chambers quiver chaotically instead of contracting normally.

People with AF are often prescribed drugs such as beta blockers to help control their heart rate and rhythm. But the medicines don't alleviate symptoms for all patients, researchers noted - which is where add-ons like yoga could come in.

"This may be something they should consider," said W. Todd Cade, a physical therapy researcher from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis.

"Yoga could be a beneficial treatment for people with atrial fibrillation. Obviously they should talk to their doctor before they start a program," Cade, who wasn't involved in the new research, told Reuters Health.

"There are a lot of other benefits of yoga, and there aren't a lot of negatives," he added.

The new study included 49 people who'd had AF for an average of five years. For three months, researchers led by Dr. Dhanunjaya Lakkireddy from the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City tracked study volunteers' heart symptoms and their blood pressure and heart rate, as well as their anxiety, depression and general quality of life.

For the second phase of the study, the same participants went to group yoga classes at least twice a week for an additional three months, again reporting on their symptoms and quality of life.

All of the patients were on stable medications throughout the study period.

Nonetheless, the number of times they reported heart quivering - which was confirmed by a heart monitor - dropped from almost four times during the first three months to twice during the yoga intervention phase. Their average heart rate also fell from 67 beats per minute at the start of the study to between 61 and 62 bpm post-yoga.

Yoga Helps

HELOISE Loh Yee Hui fit the common image of a yoga instructor she is blessed with a slender figure and good complexion.

The 34-year-old attributes all this to yoga.

Loh said she was often sick when she was younger and suffered from rheumatoid arthritis. Nine years ago, she could not walk properly during severe attacks.

Her joints were extremely painful when she bent her knees. She could not bend her fingers as well.

Loh started to look for ways to manage her illness. She tried reading books on health and switched to an organic diet.

Whenever the arthritis struck, Loh could not focus on her job. She decided to follow her sister and pick up yoga after hearing of the health benefits associated with it.

Recalling her first class that lasted one-and-a-half hours, Loh said she could barely squat.

She also cried because of the pain and her lack of agility, but she was calm inside her heart. The class piqued her interest in yoga and she continued to attend the lessons.

Later, Loh quit her teaching job in Kuala Lumpur and returned to her hometown, Pulau Pangkor, for a break. Every morning, she went for a walk with her mother. Even climbing a small slope was strenuous for her because she could not stretch her joints.

Even her mother could walk faster than her.

Yoga business doing well thanks to attention to detail

Atlanta Hawks center Zaza Pachulia slips out of his sneakers, kneels on a yoga mat and exhales.

Sitting on the back of his heels, Pachulia lowers his upper body onto his thighs. He stretches his arms out in front of him. With his body folded, only his long arms hint at his towering height of 6 feet 11 inches. Clad in baggy gray sweatpants, Pachulia smoothly glides from one yoga pose to the next Downward-Facing Dog, Warrior Pose and the Tree Pose.

Its a bit of an unexpected behind-the-scenes moment for an athlete known for playing a very physical game, not afraid to mix it up on the court.

Yet, this player best remembered by Hawks fans for his altercation with Celtics star Kevin Garnett in the 2008 playoffs credits yoga with helping his flexibility and balance and making his body feel good before and after games. Pachulia also noticed something else.

Guess what happened, Pachulia said with a big smile. My jump shot got better.

Three seasons ago, the Atlanta Hawks hired Michelle Young, a yoga instructor, to incorporate yoga into their training regimen. Its part of a growing trend of professional athletes turning to this ancient discipline to stay on the cutting edge to help players stave off injuries and keep playing. The Denver Nuggets and the Los Angeles Clippers have also reportedly hired yoga instructors. Meanwhile, although the Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta Braves surely have their own serious training regimens, neither team has a yoga instructor.

Walt Thompson, associate dean for graduate studies and research in the College of Education at Georgia State University, said while weaving yoga into a training program is not a particularly new idea, he believes its a wise investment. Thompson said several studies suggest yoga can improve flexibility and reduce injuries, especially muscle strains and joint sprains that can keep athletes out of action.

With the demands of travel and an 80-plus-game schedule, Jeff Watkinson, strength and conditioning coach for the Hawks, said players are constantly battling muscle tightness and joint stiffness, especially through their ankles, hips, groin, hamstrings and low back. And yoga, he said, can help. (His favorite poses: Pigeon Pose for hips, Triangle Pose for hamstrings, groin and hips, and Child Pose for lower back and ankles.)

When I first started, I heard, We are doing what and why? Young said. It was hard to wrap their heads around something traditionally out of the norm of what an athlete would do but now I hear, I am glad you are here, and This is just what I need. When I can take their game to the next level, anything I can do to give them an edge, that feels great.

On a recent afternoon, Pachulia, along with Ivan Johnson, a Hawks power forward known for his occasional surplus of intensity, helped Young lead a yoga class for kids at the Athleta store in Atlantic Station as part of NBA Fit Live Healthy Week. The NBA players were there to encourage youngsters to eat their vegetables, study hard in school, get plenty of sleep and try new things in this case, yoga.
