A member asked:
Does the tree pose in yoga affect your trunk and back the most?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: The tree pose is a wonderful asana. It promotes improved balance significantly, it helps you to tone your trunk muscles including the abdominal and back muscles and it improves the flexibility of your hips. Many people need to improve their balance particularly as we age.
