Yoga for Osteoporosis
Janne's personal interest in this type of yoga was sparked by her own diagnosis of osteoporosis and her mother's history of severe osteoporosis. She is happy to report that she no longer has the diagnosis of osteoporosis after 2 years of steady practice.

Janne teaches a weekly Building Bones and Balance yoga class at Innerlight Yoga in Middletown RI.

Janne is available for private sessions to create a yoga practice that is specific to you. She also teaches student and teacher workshops in Yoga for Osteoporosis.

Recent medical studies published in peer-reviewed medical journals by Loren Fishman, MD, show that a daily yoga practice of 12 specific poses significantly improves bone density in the spine and femur. 

20 minutes a day can reverse the trend of bone thinning. 
The side effects are great - stronger muscles and bones, better posture, flexibility and often reduced anxiety.

Schedule a private session with Janne Roehm 
at your home or in a studio in Middletown.

Whether you are an experienced yoga student or brand-new to yoga,
