Asanas for Flexibility and Spinal Health

Ustrasana, or Camel Pose, is a deep backbend that helps with hunched backs and dropping shoulders. I teach this pose to improve posture and open up the entire front of the body.

Here I am demonstrating Setu Bandhasana, or Bridge Pose. This asana gives a good stretch to the chest, neck, and spine, and is beneficial for opening up the lungs and improving digestion.

This video shows the steps for Paschimottanasana, the Seated Forward Bend. It's a classic pose for improving the flexibility of the spine and toning the abdominal organs.

Salabhasana, or Locust Pose, is a simple but effective backbend for strengthening the back muscles. Regular practice can be beneficial for slip disc issues and improving digestion.

This is Halasana, or Plow Pose, an inversion that deeply stretches the shoulders and spine. I teach this to help reduce back pain and improve blood circulation.

Jathara Parivartanasana, or the Abdominal Twisting Pose, is excellent for making the spine flexible. This gentle twist also tones the abdominal organs and can relieve sprains in the lower back.

This is Marichyasana C, a seated spinal twist. I use this asana to improve the flexibility of the spine and neck, while also stimulating the abdominal organs.

Parivrtta Parsvakonasana, or Revolved Side Angle Pose, is a deep twist that improves digestion and spinal flexibility. It's a challenging pose that also tones the hamstrings and improves body stability.

This is Parivrtta Trikonasana, the Revolved Triangle Pose. It tones the thigh and calf muscles while improving spinal flexibility and expanding the chest.
