Yoga And Vertebral Disc
Vertebral disc is the connective material between two vertebrae (cartilage fibrous). This provides a bit joint space and minor mobility. This disc also provides the space at the sides for the passage of nerves (Spinal nerves). Since it is a soft material than the bone there is a chance of compression, stretch and the dryness because of various reasons. Especially during the Yoga practices, the chances will be more if the learning process is mechanical than a lifestyle.
