Reports highlight the benefits of the Uttanapadasana yoga posture, a Hatha Yoga position involving lifting the legs while lying on the back. According to the Ministry of AYUSH, the pose targets the lower abdomen and the Manipura Chakra.

Physical benefits include strengthening the digestive system, toning abdominal muscles, and assisting with obesity, gas, acidity, and constipation. It is also noted for strengthening the spine and thigh muscles. Mentally, the practice is said to improve blood circulation and stabilize the nervous system, which may help alleviate stress, anxiety, and depression by improving concentration and tranquility.

Precautions are advised for pregnant women and individuals with severe pain or injuries in the abdomen, waist, or back.
