    It is a curvature corrector that allows the spine to be flexible. The asana's curve structure stimulates the deep back muscles, spine, and nerves. For individuals with lower back pain, it is an excellent asana. Menstruation discomfort is alleviated by expanding the uterus and ovaries. Stress is relieved by stimulating the adrenal glands.

    Who should not do

    Bhujangasana is not recommended for people who have serious back or spine disorders and not for people with neck difficulties. The posture places a lot of strain on the lower abdomen. Hence pregnant women should avoid performing this yoga pose.
