Pain in the back of knee is as common a problem as an aching back. Both are the causes of luxurious living or an overdose of activity that has in both cases made the muscles the easy target. Exercises are essential in case of a pain in the back of knee but the pain by itself will not allow people to effect any movement. There are some tips that a trainer can suggest which will prevent the problem from arising in the first place and ease out the pain if the problem is already persisting. First of all let people should not forget some of the age old technique of healthy living though they may seem tedious in present day living. Sqaut exercise with a cross leg posture on the floor was the best system of the Indians. The Namaz read by the Muslims in a certain Vajrasan pose is also a very good posture for avoiding knee arthritis.

Walking can ease out a lot of arthritic problems including knee pain. But people should always remember to have the right posture and the comfortable speed in walking, that is neither too fast nor slow. People can not walk till dead and they should always practice walking before they start on a jog. People can walk for a week and then need to get down to jogging. They need to have the practice of small walks even if they are in pain, as it is only exercise that can bring flexibility to their poor muscles. However the pain may not let people exercise but can go only through exercise!

Now one can ask how to practice yoga in pain. The best yogic poses are those that give movement and thus cause enhanced blood circulation to various parts of the body devoid of any obstruction. Thus people must concentrate not only on the knee but also the thighs, shoulders, hands, fingers and ankles. Always people should take the necessary medication that is prescribed by their doctor to ease the pain and should never exercise to the extent of fainting! People need to begin with rotation of neck, wrists, hands and legs clockwise and anti-clockwise three times each and one can do this sitting or standing or better even in a sleeping posture. People need to be careful not to lose their body control and fall; should be slow in taking the yogic postures as it will make them selves hold correctly and stop at the position of pain. This is very important as people will be able to get to the correct maximum bend in due course. So people should not over exert and cause damage and should continue for two days. Now they are ready to add a few more exercises to their sheet.

People should always concentrate on their breath and relax all muscles when they take the postures. This can help people in free flow of blood and oxygen without any pressure and can relieve the pains to a large extent. In fact Yoga practice is like taking bath; people should do it daily without fail and they will positively be able to see the happiness come back to their life.
