RAJAKAPOTASANA ... (Royal Pigeon Pose) This is one of the best Yogic postures ever invented. Its benefits are almost infinite. Everything from hips, groin, hamstrings, quadriceps, chest, shoulders, lungs ... all ... are stimulated and strengthened during this asana. But, by far, Rajakapotasana is best known for it's healing relief for sciatica problems. If done on a daily basis it is quite possible that sciatica pain can not only be arrested, but could disappear for good - as I have seen with several of my students.
