Great new study publication by the FASCIA RESEARCHER Helene Langevin: mice with BREAST TUMOR who performed 10 min./day of YOGA inspired stretching had 52% less tumor growth (compared with the control animals), and this in only 4 weeks. A 52% improvement appears to me to be way beyond the published effects of aggressive chemotherapy and radiation combined! I also wonder how much stronger the effect of this stretching might have been if continued for more than 4 weeks.
Maintaining in a particular yoga pose for 10 minutes continuously - as they did in this study - is not something I would do intuitively; and probably not many mice either :) But the effects shown in this study on tumor growth, on inflammatory cytokines and on immune system functioning are indeed impressive.
Of course further studies are necessary before we know to what extend these findings on animals also relate to humans. Also: a 52% reduction in tumor growth does not necessarily mean that the average life expectancy will also be reduced to the same degree, as that is also influenced by other factors such as the metastatic spreading activity of the cancer. However, in case the 52% reduction in growth - which is impressively large compared with regular cancer drug studies -also translates to a significant increase in the survival rate, then this study might signal the beginning of a new and important avenue in cancer treatment. My personal advice for Yin-yoga teachers and related friends: get prepared to be in high demand in the next few decades!
