Can a hunchback practice yoga?

Some people usually have incorrect writing or working postures which can easily cause hunchbacks. Especially for girls, hunchbacks do affect their posture and are not beautiful. There are many ways to correct hunchbacks. Can people with hunchbacks practice yoga? Yoga is a good way to exercise. Some girls think that yoga can help them to have a good figure. I wonder if yoga can effectively correct hunchbacks. Let me introduce it to you below.

What

Because hunchback is mainly caused by the failure to open our chest ribs and shoulder joints, and insufficient shoulder and back muscle strength. Yoga posture exercises can effectively exercise the above parts and joints and enhance joint flexibility. Strengthening muscle strength can fundamentally eliminate the problem of hunchback.

Yoga breathing training can help us open the ribs of the chest from the inside out, promote the healthy development of the body, and is also very helpful in improving hunchback.

How can yoga improve hunchback?

1. Camel pose

Kneel down with your calves flat on the ground and your feet facing upward. The thighs and torso form a straight line. Inhale and place your hands above your pelvis. Exhale, slowly bend backwards, first place your right hand on your right heel with your fingers pointing backwards, then place your left hand on your left heel in the same way. Inhale, lift your chest toward the sky, relax your head, and keep breathing natural. Hold the pose for about 15 to 30 seconds. Once you are done, slowly return to the original position and rest in the child pose.

Grasp your toes with both hands and bring your heels close to your perineum. Place the outsides of your feet on the ground. Spread your thighs apart and lower your knees until they touch the ground. Grasp your toes firmly with your fingers, keep your spine straight, and look forward or inward at the tip of your nose. Try to maintain this position as much as possible. Press your elbows down against your thighs. Exhale, bend forward, and place your head, nose, and chin on the ground in turn. Maintain this position and breathe normally.

Stand in Mountain Pose with your legs together. Inhale, bend your right hand and place it on the thoracic vertebrae behind your back, with your palm facing backwards and the back of your hand close to your spine.

Raise your right hand and bend your elbow, clasp your fingers together, and place your right hand behind your head with your elbow facing upward.
