Seems Trivial, These 5 Yoga Poses Can Overcome Erectile Dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction occurs when a man is unable to achieve or maintain an erection. Launching from Medical News Today, research shows that practicing yoga every day can help men enjoy improved sexual health. There are many causes for erectile dysfunction or erectile dysfunction, from restricted blood flow to medications taken by men, to psychological and emotional problems. While some causes of erectile dysfunction may require medical treatment, some yoga poses can be used as an alternative to treat mild erectile dysfunction.
According to a study published in the Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy, yoga has been shown to help reduce blood pressure, body mass index, and heart rate.
Since high blood pressure and being overweight are both linked to dysfunction, the benefits highlighted above can help men cope with erectile dysfunction. Journal articles also suggest that yoga increases blood flow to the genitals, which can improve sexual function. Another study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine studied 65 men aged 24 to 60 who participated in a 12-week yoga session. The participants were asked to rate their sexual function before and after yoga practice. At the end of 12 weeks, men reported improved control of ejaculation, erections, and orgasms.
There is no comprehensive research on the relationship between the two.
However, researchers writing in the Journal of Ayurveda and Integrated Medical Sciences have looked at the body's knowledge of yoga, stress relief, and sexual function. They concluded that there are five recommended poses to treat erectile dysfunction, here's a complete list.
1. Ardha Matsyendrasana
This pose is meant to improve digestion and blood flow to major organs, including the liver, spleen, pancreas, and pelvic area
- Start in a sitting position with your legs stretched out in front of you.
- Bend the right leg at the knee and cross it to the left, placing the right foot on the floor.
- Inhale then exhale slowly, turn to the right, stretch your left arm forward, resting your left elbow on your right knee.
- Those who are very flexible can clasp their hands behind their backs while twisting.
- Release the pose and start from a sitting position. Repeat on the opposite side.
2. Siddhasana
Siddhasana is a classic yoga position, sometimes called the Perfect Pose, and can be practiced for a long time. For men, this pose has the benefit of stimulating the pelvic area and increasing flexibility
- Sit on the floor with your legs stretched out in front of you.
- Cross your left leg at the knee, place your left foot near the inside of the right thigh.
- Repeat the movement on the right leg, place the right foot on top of the left ankle. The right heel should press against the pubic bone.
- When doing the pose, try to breathe deeply.
3. Garudasana
Also known as Eagle Pose, this pose requires balance.
A man should do it near a solid wall or piece of furniture if he wants to practice his balance. This pose is known to increase blood flow to the pelvis so it is potentially beneficial for those with erectile dysfunction.
- Stand up straight with both feet.
- Imagine the right leg is a root connected to the ground.
- Slowly lift the left leg, rotate it over the right knee, placing the top of the foot on the back of the right calf if possible.
- Bend at the knees to deepen the stretch. If desired, a person can raise his arms to shoulder height and cross each other.
- Hold the position for 5 to 10 seconds, release, and repeat on the other leg.
4. Pavanamuktasana
Pavanamuktasana is also known as Wind Relieve Pose because it increases intestinal motility and can relieve stomach pain from gas. In addition, it helps to mobilize and warm the pelvic muscles and reproductive organs.
- Lie on the floor, legs outstretched.
- Inhale then exhale and bring one knee towards the chest. Wrap your arms around your knees, pulling your legs as close to your stomach as possible.
- Continue to inhale and exhale while maintaining the position.
- Release and lower the leg. Repeat on the opposite side.
5. Shavasana
Also known as Corpse Pose, this pose is often the last pose to do in yoga class. Although almost anyone can do shavasana, it can be one of the most difficult to do well. This is because it involves calm, introspection, and focusing on one's breathing. Lie down with your back on the floor and arms outstretched at your sides. Point your palms up, towards the sky. Visualize each body part slowly relaxing. Start with the toes of the right foot, then the ankle, calf, knee, and so on. Switch to visualize the left leg relaxing and moving up through the body.
