Yoga to Cure GERD

So in my search for a GERD cure, I read some stuff about how Yoga can help with GERD.  There's a number of yoga postures that people recommend to help with digestion.  So I went to Youtube and grabbed some videos.  It's really a simple search for Yoga and GERD.  I did some of the postures, and it was alright but didn't really stick with it.

After that, I was talking to a friend of mine who goes regularly to Bikram Yoga, and she finally convinced me to go:
Bikram Yoga is a series of twenty-six Hatha Yoga postures and two Pranayama breathing techniques designed to provide a challenging, invigorating, rejuvenating and effective yoga experience. During this 90-minute class, you will work every muscle, tendon, ligament, joint and internal organ in the entire body, giving you an incredible sense of well being.

There's Bikram or Hot Yoga studios around the world, so you can definitely find them, hopefully not too far from you.

I've been doing Bikram Yoga for the last 40 days or so, and I can tell you, I feel amazing:  I've lost weight, posture is better, stomach feels stronger, and have increased my overall flexibility.

It's to the point that I really don't feel like I have GERD anymore, at at least the symptoms have virtually disappeared.  About 3 weeks after I started doing Bikram, I started to: drink alcohol again, eat spicy food, eat closer to bed time, and eat bigger meals.  I do try to keep my portions smaller than before, but overall I'm to what to me is normal.

  1. Hi there - thanks for sharing your experience.
    Just a question - is your GERD now resolved? If yes, was it just the yoga or a combination of yoga and other things?
    Thanks!

  2. Your Acid Reflux diet is not about only avoiding foods, there are foods that you want to eat more of because they will help dissolve stomach acids, and as a result reduce or eliminate heartburn.

  4. Very informative, because it compresses most of the information needed and the best solution to Paralysis still remains herbal medicines.
    I became more convinced in herbal medicines because of NZE NJOKU HERBAL HOME.
    I have also contacted Nze Njoku for herbal treatment for my grandfather who had suffered paralysis caused by stroke for eight years.
    My grandfather took herbal medicines from Nze Njoku Herbal Home as he's instructed without any lifestyle change which healed him of paralysis within nine weeks.
    As I write this my grandfather is doing great on his feet and most importantly he has started his business effectively as if nothing happened to him.
    Feel free to contact them on;

  5. I would like to thank Ultimate Life Clinic for reversing my father's Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). My father’s ALS condition was fast deteriorating before he started on the ALS Herbal medicine treatment from Ultimate Life Clinic. He was on the treatment for just 6 months and we never thought my father will recover so soon. He has gained some weight in the past months and he is able to walk with no support. You can contact them at their website at www.ultimatelifeclinic.com
