Yoga Poses to Relieve Sinus Pressure

Pose: Downward Facing Dog 

Begin in the Child’s Pose with your arms extended out in front of you. Then, press your palms evenly into the floor, curl your toes under and lift your hips up and back, so your body forms an inverted V shape. (Note: Your feet should be a little more than hip-width apart.) Hold this pose for 5 slow, deep inhales and exhales, then lower down to your hands and knees (or Child’s Pose). Do at least one more repetition. 



How It Helps:

Being slightly upside down, says Ingber, alleviates some of that painful sinus pressure and promotes drainage of anything that’s stuffing you up.
