Sandra Bonacina (professor of physiotherapy at Zurich University and inventor of the T-BOW\u00ae) points out three crucial elements for proper backward lying technique are:<\/p>\n

1. Ensure all vertebrae make contact with the bow.<\/p>\n

2. Maintain a straight line between the neck and head.<\/p>\n

3. Ensure the bottom touches the floor.<\/p>\n

In the back extensions on the T-BOW\u00ae on the T-Box\u00ae, like the example shown in the video, the elevated position of the T-BOW\u00ae allows the practitioner to have free space to hang his upper and lower parts of the body, thus not only allowing the hip to be aligned with the lumbar spine and in contact with the anatomical-lumbar-spine bow but also to lower the legs challenging the flexibility of the hip flexors, key actors for a very healthy back extension.<\/p>\n
