Exploring the Potential of the Cat-Cow Pose in Facilitating Smooth Delivery for Pregnant Women
The cat-cow pose, also known as Marjaryasana-Bitilasana, is a yoga pose that involves arching and
rounding the back while on all fours. While there is limited scientific research on its impact on delivery,
it is generally recognized as a beneficial exercise during pregnancy.
Practicing the cat-cow pose can improve flexibility, increase circulation, and promote a healthy range of motion in the lower back and pelvic region.
Gynaecologists advise pregnant women to perform this pose under supervision, as it may help with vaginal
delivery. Although individual experiences vary, regular practice of the cat-cow pose may have potential
benefits for a smoother delivery.
