Dosage: Hold for 1 to 2 minutes. Hold it for round 10 breaths earlier than slowly lowering back all the way down to the bottom. The aim of this stretch is to take the pressure off your lower back by elongating the spine and aligning it which in return decompresses it by stretching it. You will need to take heed to your body, if a stretch is painful then it is best to stop. Stop immediately if you feel ache or any discomfort.
