Kandharasana Benefits

The shoulder pose or Kandharasana is a very good YOGA posture for females for strengthening the reproductive organs and for correcting many vertebral disc problems. This posture relieves menstrual problems and disorders related to the uterus. Hand and shoulder muscles become strong, also muscles of the lumbar region and thighs are strengthened. Unnecessary fat is reduced. As the chest and rib cage are fully expanded lungs get filled with fresh air. As a result of this their capacity increases and air, sacs are cleared. Thereby more oxygen is absorbed. It helps to have a more flexible spinal column. Kandharasana Benefits:
