A yoga wheel is a circular shaped prop that helps open the front side body, assists in advanced yoga postures, and rolls out the spine.

 

Basically – it’s the bomb.

 

The Why:

 

At first glance, it can be hard to imagine why anyone would spend over $100 on a wooden wheel that you roll around on. I was in that same boat too, until I actually tried the damn thing.

 

And here’s why:

 

• The yoga wheel will immediately stretch your entire front side body – hip flexors, abdomen, chest, and shoulders. It’s a serious heart opener!

• It will massage the entire length of your spine in a safe but deep way.

• The wheel helps yoga practitioners move deeper into postures, specifically heart opening postures like backbends and forearm balances.
