    Tadasana Contraindications:

    Following are the Contraindications for Tadasana (Mountain Pose).

    Injury and Surgery: Tadasana (Mountain Pose) should not be done by people with knee
    and ankle injuries. It should also be avoided by people who have undergone knee,
    hip, and spinal surgeries. This pose requires standing for some time and this is
    strenuous for such people and may further cause damage.
    Lack of Body-Breath Connections: Beginners may find it difficult to even stand
    straight with their feet close to each other. People who lack breath body
    connection can do this pose with the yoga teacher’s guidance. Either they can
    initially start with Mountain Pose Variation Feet Hip Wide (Tadasana Variation Feet
    Hip Wide) or Mountain Pose Wall (Tadasana Wall). Mountain Pose Block Between Feet
    (Tadasana Block Between Pada) is another variation which helps them to understand
    body alignment and support their feet.
    Physical Strength and Weak Body: Students with weak knees and ankles should avoid
    directly getting into Tadasana (Mountain Pose). The yoga teacher needs to guide
    them on knee and ankle strengthening and then initiate the pose. Seated Ankle
    Rotations (Upavistha Goolf Chakra) is a good ankle strengthening pose and Seated
    Knee Bending will strengthen their knees. People with vertigo, a migraine, low or
    high blood pressure also should avoid this pose. Such ailments cause dizziness and
    this pose can bring more discomfort or pain if the balance is a challenge. Knee
    locking can be challenging for some people and the yoga teacher can guide them with
    Knee Exercise Knee Cap Pulled Close Up.
    Others: Senior citizens and Pregnant women may have balancing issues. Pregnant
    women may feel an imbalance, due to the weight of the womb and seniors due to
    weakness, etc. Mountain Pose Variation Feet Hip Wide (Tadasana Variation Feet Hip
    Wide) or Mountain Pose Wall (Tadasana Wall) are good alternatives for them. The
    balance increases with wider feet and the wall support is reassuring and supports
    the back.
    Therapy and Restorative: Though Herniated Discs, Scoliosis and Kyphosis spinal
    disorders can be corrected by this pose, yoga teachers need to rule out vertigo,
    migraine, low or high blood pressure in such patients to avoid falling due to
    imbalance. Such patients can be encouraged to do seated spinal exercises.

    Vrikshasana Contraindications:
    Vrksasana can be challenging to many at the initial disturbing the flow of energy
    in the body. Hence has to be done with proper care and with clear instructions.
    However, there are many precautions to keep in mind during the teaching of this
    pose, and these are explained below:

    Injury and Surgery: Being a hip opener, that also puts pressure on the knees, ankle
    and shoulders, students with any kind of injury related to these joints should
    completely avoid this practice. Moreover, if students are recovering from a recent
    surgery related to any part of the joints mentioned above, or even related to a
    surgery to any internal organ, then they should refrain from the practice of this
    pose. However, using a chair, a block can be considered, provided the student is
    comfortable with balancing.
    Ailment and Physical Strength: Since this pose demands some basic strength in the
    muscles of the legs, hips, and back, students with issues related to the physical
    body should take it slow or even avoid this practice. A few conditions like
    vertigo, a migraine, arthritis in the hips or knees, history of a hip replacement,
    or any other condition that is contraindicated, should be considered during the
    practice of Tree Pose. Additionally, those who are recovering from a long disease
    or ailment and were confined to their bed for long, then starting them with
    balancing poses like these should be done with care and precaution.
    Lack of Body-Breath Connections: Vrksasana demands awareness and focus. Without
    proper knowledge of body-breath connection, the practice may bring disturbance in
    the energy levels and defeat the purpose of the practice, completely. Hence, unless
    the students are completely ready, they should not be introduced to this practice.
    However, the easy Beginner Tree Pose can be considered, with very clear
    instructions.
    Others: Although senior citizens can practice this pose, care should be taken to
    guide them with clear instructions. Initially the use of a wall or chair should be
    encouraged. Additionally, included in prenatal yoga sequences, care should be taken
    to avoid holding the posture longer. When included in peak pose yoga sequences,
    care should be taken to ensure the body is warmed up well enough, including
    bringing breath awareness.
