Scientific Abstract

Spondylarthritis can lead to stiffness of the spine and consequently to impaired function. Therefore, it is important to promote daily exercises in Spondylarthritis (SpA) patients. The objective of this study is to assess the feasibility of Yoga to affect spine mobility and disease activity in SpA patients. By measuring the mobility and improving spine flexibility, patients feel better with their disease and learn how important daily exercising is.
