BUTTERFLY POSE 3 Yoga Poses for Knee Stretching
In addition to strengthening the knees, it is equally vital to incorporate stretches that promote flexibility and mobility. When the muscles around the knees are overly tight, it can impede fluid movement and potentially exacerbate knee injuries. Here are three poses that focus on stretching the knees and their supporting muscles, while ensuring a pain-free experience.
Remember, each person’s condition is unique, so consulting with your physician before starting any exercise routine is essential.
BUTTERFLY POSE (Baddha Konasana)
Sit on the mat with the soles of your feet together, allowing your knees to fall outward. Hold onto your feet or ankles, and gently press your elbows against your inner thighs. Sit tall and relax your shoulders. Feel the opening and stretch in your inner thighs and knees. Breathe deeply and hold the pose for several breaths.
