I have a "yoga for beginners" DVD that I bought to try to help. I have fibromyalgia, connective tissue disease, and a shoulder problem that may or may not be TOS.

I discovered that the actual Yoga was causing flares and pain -- but the pre-Yoga stretches and warm-up exercises do not cause a flare, and they are helpful.

So, I do the warm-up and the stretches, but I avoid the actual yoga.
