I thought it was impossible to get taller after puberty, but I've heard from a LOT of people that said doing yoga made them grow a couple inches. And these were people in their 20s and 30s.
How does it work? Does it decompress your spinal discs?

Yoga teaches you how to use your muscles differently, so many people find that their posture changes.
Because most people have a 'collapsed' posture, the ability to change it (easier breathing is usually what you notice) is likely to make you 'longer' when you stand.
(Most people are taller in the morning, because their spine has stretched out during the night.)
Yoga doesn't really 'decompress' your spinal discs. But by standing differently, you help them to carry the weight more evenly.
Alexander technique also teaches you to use a different posture, and will often seem to add about an inch to your measured height (and quite a lot of extra volume to your lung capacity).
Many of the beneficial effects of postural exercise systems, are caused by the extra availability of oxygen.

oh my... my my my Growing taller or just growing at all is GENETIC. There is no pill you can take or exercise you can do that will ever make you physically taller. If you are not satisfied with the hight you are, all I can say is love yourself... you could be a little person or end up in a wheelchair because your legs don't work. I'm 4'9 and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Yes, as you stretch and fortify muscles that hold your body's support structure in place you will be a little taller. If you have a natural "sway back" a dip in your lower back (some have this worse than others) you can gain as much as 3+ inches. You will hear over and over again that as we age we often become shorter which is for the exact opposite reasons.
As many are trying to say, your bodies bones will not lengthen. For many various reasons our structural height is hindered and often in earlier stages of childhood development. Stretching regularly has a potential to reverse these processes as well as the processes caused through aging and breaking down. If you stand up and are measured as taller then you are taller. I believe most of us are shorter than we can stretch from finger tip to finger tip, this may be the maximum height we can achieve?

It took me about 7 month of religiously practising yoga to stretch an inch. Keyword stretch. It's like an elastic band. It doesn't grow per se but stretches so you appear longer. Having corrected my posture improved my breathing, exercise performance, stress levels, muscular aches and pains and my self cconfidence. In addition my breaks are well shaped and perky now, which they were not before. My whole body looks so different posture is very important and we tend to overlook it. P.S I'm 21 almost 22 year old female

Yoga and pilates give you a better posture qhen you walk and when you sit so you may think your a but taller bot you´re not.
I think the stretching may help younger people; to grow a bit more. But someone above 20´s no it is all about the posture.
Good luck! ;D
