Yoga movements that specialize in treating swollen calves (Photo)
1. Stand with your feet as wide as your shoulders, and your hands hanging naturally on both sides of your body. Inhale, stand with your left foot in place, gently lift your right foot up, and bend it from your knees. This is where the thighs and calves are at a right angle, the thighs are parallel to the ground, and the calves are perpendicular to the ground. Then, lift your hands up from the sides of your body, put your hands together, keep your arms close to your ears, and keep your arms and elbows in the same line, and hold this motion for 10 seconds.
2. Exhale, use your left foot as a fulcrum, slowly place your hands back on both sides of your body, close to the outside of your thighs, press your upper body downward, and straighten your right foot backward so that your head, spine, and right foot are in a straight line. The body is parallel to the ground. At this time, the entire body forms a T shape, similar to the T shape of yoga. Hold this action for 10 seconds. If you have just started practicing and have trouble grasping balance, you can hold the chair with one hand for auxiliary practice.
3. Inhale, gently put down your hands, and continue to press down on the upper body until your hands touch the ground. Place them on both sides of your left foot. Lay your chest as close as possible to your thighs, place your head lightly on your knees, and place it on the upper body. While pressing down, lift your right foot up. Note that at this time, your left foot must stand straight and your knees must not bend. Hold this action for 10 seconds.
4. Exhale, gently lower your right foot, keep your knees straight, continue to bend your upper body forward and downward, and place your hands on your feet. If your hands cannot reach the ground, you can grab your ankles or calves, bend your elbows, and lower your head and neck. Relax, try to keep your abdomen close to your thighs, your chin close to your knees, and keep the distance between your body and thighs as small as possible. Hold this action for 10 seconds.
