torsion movements, natural therapy to help the body stay healthy
The twists in yoga are not only a soft curling of the body but also bring many benefits beyond their appearance. When done correctly, gentle twists help the body wake up, release energy, stimulate digestion and soften the spine.
Turn poses affect the entire nervous system and internal organs, says Dr Matthew Taylor, a physiotherapist and yoga researcher at the National Institute of Comprehensive Health. When you twist yourself properly, blood circulates more strongly, helping the body regulate and recover quickly".
Not only improving your figure, twists also help your mind relax, reduce stress and increase concentration.
6 main benefits of twisting poses
Whole-body stretching: torsion helps stretch the muscles in the shoulders, chest, hips and spine, areas that are often under pressure when sitting at work for long periods of time. The feeling of stiffness is replaced with flexibility and ease.
Increase core strength: When twisted, the abdominal, glutes, and inter costal muscles are activated, helping to improve balance and increase overall strength.
Digestive stimulation: According to yoga expert Sarah Platt-Finger, founder of ISHTA Yoga Center (New York, USA): "S light twists help cool visceral tissues, promote the digestive system and eliminate toxins more effectively".
Natural detoxification: Light pressure on the abdomen when twitching helps blood circulation and supports better liver and kidney function, as a detoxification therapy for the body.
Helps breathe deeply and relax: When the chest is dilated, the lungs absorb more oxygen, improve breathing and reduce fatigue.
Increased concentration and mental balance: Mobilization requires control and attention to breathing, helping the mind to be calm and improving concentration.
How to do torsion properly
Newcomers should start with simple poses such as sitting spine twists, triangle twists or seat twists.
Keep your breathing steady: take a deep breath as you prepare to twist, exhale as you twist deeper.
If you feel tense, you can use yoga sticks or a belt to support and avoid injury.
Expert Sarah Platt-Finger advises: "Just a few minutes a day with a twist is enough to help you feel more relaxed and relaxed."
torsion yoga is not only for long-time practitioners. With a modern lifestyle, this is a natural, safe and effective method to unleash energy, maintain health and a positive spirit.
