Be careful when practicing vitality yoga

Simply pulling and pulling hard will cause the" bow "somewhere to break.

"In fact, for every practitioner, as long as he moves to his maximum extent, no matter whether his limbs can bend to 30 degrees or 90 degrees, the result is the same. It can relax the body and mind, regulate breathing, and circulate. The role of other systems." Experts say that if a beginner is only suffering from muscle soreness, it is just muscle fatigue that can be relieved by itself; if a certain part is very painful, there is a feeling of acupuncture, soft tissue swelling, local numbness and other symptoms, it means that you have indeed been injured. Stop practicing at this time and seek medical advice as soon as possible.
