Inversions Aid Circulation

Inversions Aid Circulation

‘Legs Up The Wall’ is a common restorative yoga pose with health benefits such as aiding circulation and reducing swelling. It entails lying on one’s back with the back of their legs resting up a wall to create an ‘L’ shape. Any rendition of this pose is beneficial. If getting to the floor or lifting your legs into the air proves challenging, try lying on the couch or a bed and propping your shins on stacked pillows. As long as your feet are higher than your head, you’ll reap the benefits. Certain conditions warrant the avoidance of inversions. Check with a trusted health practitioner before practicing.
