My mother has arthritis in her fingers, she's had it for several years. 3 years ago she started Bikram, practicing 3 times a week. After the first year she no longer had the pain in her joints. Each year after she has lost the stiffness in her fingers and has much more mobility. This article goes through someone's journey with arthritis and Bikram as well as explaining the many benefits! Joseph Encinia, 2011 Male World Champion, was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis at a young age, going through years of pain and hospital visits, suffering from a heart attack at the age of 13. Through Bikram, he has not only strengthened his whole body, he has surpassed doctor's expectations, honed his body and going on to competing and winning the yoga championships! So it just goes to show, anything is possible!
