You probably spend most of your day standing, sitting, or moving from one thing to the next without ever giving your legs a real break. What if just a few minutes at the end of your day could refresh your body, calm your mind, and improve your circulation—all without needing equipment or a gym? That’s exactly what the “legs up the wall” pose, or Viparita Karani in yoga, can do for you.

By lying on your back and resting your legs vertically against a wall, you gently reverse the natural pull of gravity that your body experiences all day. Blood and lymph fluids that usually flow downward have a chance to return toward your heart, encouraging better circulation and helping to reduce swelling in your feet and legs. It’s one of the simplest ways to give your lower body relief after hours of walking or standing.

This position also signals your nervous system to slow down. Deep breathing while holding the pose activates your parasympathetic system—the part of your body responsible for rest and recovery. As a result, you may notice your mind quieting, your heart rate lowering, and your body easing into a calmer state. Some people find that practicing this pose regularly helps them fall asleep more easily and wake up feeling more rested.

If you experience mild headaches, low back tension, or muscle fatigue, this posture can offer gentle comfort. It’s also known to help balance blood pressure naturally and may support vein health by easing pressure in the lower limbs.

Try it tonight: find a comfortable space near a wall, place a pillow under your hips, lift your legs up, and breathe deeply for 5–10 minutes. It’s a small act of self-care with big restorative effects.

Muscle tension/tightness can contribute to your aches and pains😔

Many people with low back pain suffer from tight muscles, many times being IT band tightness, quad/hamstring tightness and so on.

Your muscles help with spinal mobility and postural support to name a couple💪

When your muscles are tight you have to compensate somewhere else, putting pressure in that area, until a new area begins to have pains and then compensation begins all over again.

Many times a massage can help alleviate pains, allowing the muscle to relax and relieve the stress🥰

What pains are you feeling👎👇

MASSAGE Benefits💆‍♀️

Improved Circulation: Massage therapy enhances blood circulation by promoting vasodilation, which is the widening of blood vessels. This allows more oxygen and nutrients to reach tissues while facilitating the removal of metabolic waste.

Muscle Relaxation: Tight muscles can restrict blood flow. By relieving muscle tension through massage, blood can flow more freely, reducing discomfort and improving mobility.

Enhanced Lymphatic Drainage: Certain massage techniques, such as lymphatic drainage massage, specifically target the lymphatic system, promoting the flow of lymph fluid. This helps detoxify the body and reduces swelling, further improving circulation.

Faster Recovery: Improved blood flow accelerates tissue repair and reduces recovery time after injuries or surgeries, making massage beneficial for athletes and those recovering from physical stress.

Stress Reduction: Massage promotes relaxation and reduces stress levels, which can positively impact heart rate and blood pressure, contributing to better overall cardiovascular health.

Sometimes, you can overstretch! And sometimes, the root cause of your pain is not where the pain is itself.

Just something to think about out when you are trying to stretch a tender area..

Did you know?!
Getting a massage before you chiropractic appointment can help tremendously!

When the muscles are so tight around your spine, your spine has a harder time adjusting. Getting the muscles loosened up can help the adjustment happen in a smoother way, with less discomfort!

When a massage is done with a chiropractic adjustment you are even closer to healing.
