For clinicians and medical providers to comfortably recommend YBIs to their clients, reliable safety data are needed. The lack of reported safety data is one of the largest limitations in the YBI literature to date.31 More specifically, only about one third of YBIs sufficiently report yoga-related adverse events (AEs) to allow for quantifiable analysis.32 Additionally, many YBI studies are conducted with younger and fitter participants who may be better able to withstand the rigors of practice, both in terms of the adherence to regular practice and the challenges associated with more vigorous practice, thus limiting the generalizability of safety findings to less “healthy” populations.21 Providers need further data on potential “side effects” and/or AEs associated with different components of YBIs and contraindications of the various components of practice in different populations. This is especially important given the recent increase in reports of yoga-related injuriesinlaypressarticles.32,33 DataonAEswouldfacilitatediscussion of risks and benefits between providers and clients and may decrease unrealistic expectations and allow for appropriate cautions to be put into place.
