im sure any yoga helps, i just like bikram. ITs a personal preference; I like it cause it's hardcore and makes me lose weight at the same time so I get multiple benefits in one session.

this is from JAMA, Journal of of the medical association done at univerisity of pennsylvania about yoga and carpal. it said all the yoga subjects had less pain and better grip after going to yoga only twice a week and they only did eight poses while control subjects did not. that study was done on normal yoga, not bikram; so it doesn't matter what kind you do. I just think bikram is the best for carpal and rsi (just an opinion)
I'm sure any yoga helps but it's best to go more than twice a week i think... plus most classes are more than 8 poses (bikram is 26 poses done twice) and i go like 3-4 times a week.
