Discomfort-like sore backaches can be cured with yoga itself. As it includes both stretching and strengthening activities. Through this article, you are going to know about those yoga poses that might help you relieve back pain. These are as follows:
Forward bending (Uttanasana): This pose will relieve lower back tension. Simply, spread your feet slightly wider than shoulder length. Stand straight and then move forward slowly touching the knees with your head. The muscles become flexible to adapt to the changes.
Cat-Cow pose: Practising this stretch will strengthen the muscles of your lower back. It helps in elevating spinal mobility and enhances blood circulation in that particular region. The spinal fluid circulating there will lubricate the joints and ease the back issues.
Half Pigeon stretch: This may also be named as seated piriformis stretch. As, in simple terms, the piriformis is a small muscle that may spasm during your pregnancy. And this muscle is closely associated with the sciatic nerve. Relaxing this nerve will automatically switch off the backache.
Child’s pose: This yoga pose involves bending downward with bent knees touching the ground. The major stretch is laid upon the muscles of the hips, thighs, and lower back. During bending your stretch, the muscles of the spine relieve the tightness. And muscular tone improved to bear the increasing weight of the body without pain to the muscles.
Low lunges: It is a great way to stretch your hip flexors. These flexors originate in the lower back. And if too tight then might be the reason for back ache. You can stretch one of your legs leaving the other leg touching the ground to take a low lunge position. Keep your hands on the floor or may also take cubical props to support the position of your hand.
