Morarji Desai Yoga Institute highlights Purna Shalabhasana effects

The Morarji Desai National Institute of Yoga says Purna Shalabhasana, or Full Locust Pose, strengthens the spine and provides strength and energy to the body. The advanced posture may also improve blood flow and flexibility. Beginners should practise under guidance, while people with severe back pain, sciatica, hypertension, hernia or ulcers should avoid it.
