Yes, yoga has helped a lot, but you need to practice an alignment focused yoga, iyengar would be the ideal type, or anusara. Iyengar yoga is very strict methodical and careful, but is very worthwhile.
The osteo arthritis has been aggravated by quads that were over developed in certain areas, there are now grooves carved in my patellas as they have been pulled across the knee joint. Post op Physio gave me exercises which all agree with my yoga instructors advice. The Physio even said I could skip the exercises if I carried on with regular yoga and incorporated her suggestions in my yoga practice.
