Yoga, Pilates, and any simple movement regime (even walking) will not only stretch your muscles and joints but will improve circulation of blood and lymph as well as improving organ function. An illustration of how movement affects organs is in back pain sufferers that have associated constipation.
Partly because the spasm, or the fear of pain, causes restriction in overall body movement, there is a reduction in the physical movement of the bowel, this in turn can cause constipation. So keep moving, and make sure you're articulating every part of your body. Think of each of your joints, and gently and slowly move them one-by-one through their full range of pain-free motion.

Back pain
Report
Back pain affects up to 80% of us at some point in our lives. The NHS spends more than 1 billion per year on back pain related costs, but even more money is lost through leaves of absence in the workplace caused by excessive aches and pains. Your spine is made of solid, bony blocks reinforced by strong ligaments and muscles.
