这项初步研究的目的是确定椅子瑜伽和灵气是否影响疼痛，抑郁情绪和身体功能，与老年人骨关节炎的教育计划相比。研究结果表明，只有身体功能和椅子瑜伽之间存在显着关系。在焦点小组访谈中，参与者表达了瑜伽干预后改善健康和幸福的感觉。本研究的主要局限性是样本量小。
The aim of this pilot study was to determine whether chair yoga and Reiki affect pain, depressive mood, and physical function compared with an educational program for older adults with osteoarthritis. Findings showed significant relationships only between physical function and chair yoga. In focus group interviews, participants expressed feelings of improved health and well-being after the yoga intervention. The major limitation of this study was the small sample size.
