Cat and Camel Pose
• Women suffer from lower back pain post pregnancy
• Cat & camel pose exercise helps strengthen the back muscles
Exercise technique:
1. Get into the all fours position on hands and knees
2. Keep your arms under your shoulders and your knees hip
width apart
3. Your spine should be in a straight line
4. Slowly arch your back and look up at the ceiling. Hold for 4
counts. This is the cat stretch
5. Round out your upper back like a camel hump and look
down at your navel. Hold for 4 counts. This is the camel
stretch.
6. Slowly return back to starting position
7. Repeat 4 times
Tips:
• Breathe normally during the exercise
• In your daily routine, put the least amount of stress on your
back
• While breastfeeding, sit straight with your back well supported
with pillows
• Use your knees & squat instead of bending over
• While lifting heavy objects, keep your back straight
