(Show)
A study was conducted to determine the effects of a three week hatha yoga programme on the reduction of anxiety level and neck and shoulder pain. The three-week programme was given to 14 women working at the University of Jyvaskyla, Jyvaskyla, Finland. They were randomly divided into two equal groups, and both were given similar exercises. One group was given easier exercises than the other.
