The location of the arc help the spine, the nervous system and the digestive system, in addition to other benefits.
Let’s get started: distendiamoci on a mat on your stomach, with your face facing down.

Exhale, bend your knees and arms tend to back afferrarci ankles (left hand right hand left ankle, right ankle).
We inhale and exhale for two times, and then completely espriamo by clearing the lungs and raise your legs and chest leaving as the contact point on the pad the belly and stomach.
With the abdomen on the mat we push back and up the calves, thighs together with contraendoli so that the shoulders are raised.
At this point, your back will be arched, but should remain soft. We are in position and we can start swinging slightly in order to massage the abdomen, the point where is Manipura Chakra, which will be stimulated in this way.
We can start with four rocking, holding the position from 20 seconds to a minute.
