From cat cow pose to cobra, here is a list of five yoga asanas that can help you relieve back pain in the morning.
Some mornings we wake up with back pain. This happens due to many reasons – from unhealthy sleeping positions to mattresses or other lifestyle patterns. When we sit in one place for long hours and work without stretching or moving our backs occasionally, back pain is inevitable. It can appear soon after waking up in the morning. Waking up with back pain in the morning can slow us down. Therefore, it is important to create a workout routine to stretch the back muscles properly and get ready for the day ahead with a fit body. Here are five easy yoga asanas that can help us relieve back pain effectively.
