Yoga
back bender is a great yoga gear that is used for supporting backbend
poses. It allows you to completely relax into the pose and soothe
nervous system, due to non-attachment of the body. It helps you to
expand the front body (your chest and lungs) when lying on it for more
effective breathing. With the help of the bender, your shoulder can be
rolled down close to the floor, while your spine gets full support by
the bender's curve. Yoga back bender has two different curves on each
side - a steady arch at one end and a steep arch on the other end. The
steep arch is meant for yoga practitioners who are more flexible.
Usually Yoga back benders are made of lightweight wood, however some
back benders are made of metal also.
