Yoga for low back pain in children
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a specific yoga pose (downward-facing dog) can reduce pain and improve posture in children aged 8–14 with non-specific low back pain. It may help if your child has back pain that isn't caused by a known injury or disease and has lasted at least 4 weeks but less than 6 months.
