~~Yoga with Pinched Nerve

I'm currently working on healing a pinched nerve in my neck. I'm definitely not going to do any cardio or anything high impact until it heals, but I'm thinking that yoga might be a good thing to do in the meantime. Anyone with experience doing yoga w/ pinched nerve? Did it help? (I am on pain meds and rest when I can - I had a week's worth of Prednisone, which seemed to temporarily help). Thanks!

    Hello,
    I am a firm believer that yoga heals....period.
    i have a few pinched nerves in my back and neck from getting rear-ended on the road. I started doing yoga, and felt better right away!
    Please get moving today :-)
    and dont ever stop :-)
    friend me if you want, and let me know if i can help.

    yoga also helped my heel spur and sprained ankle/foot, i no longer need the chiropractor
