Benefits:

Dhanurasana is the combination of Salabhasana and Bhujangasana. That is why it provides the benefits of both of those asanas. It makes the entire back elastic and strengthened, it cures constipation and diarrhea, reduces obesity and strengthens the muscles of the hands and legs. It gets rid of flatulence, and gives a good massage to the chest and stomach.

Cautions:

Avoid if suffering from slipped disc, hernia, or high blood pressure.
