WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU FLY
[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type="normal" color="#c9c9c9" thickness="1" up="20" down="20"][vc_column_text]You've got a cramped seat for long hours, questionable coffee water, and to top it off, a change in air pressure that your body just doesn't know how to handle.As the pressure around you decreases, the gas in your belly increases, being less constrained, so it expands. This is why you may feel bloated.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type="transparent" thickness="20"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation="" row_type="row" use_row_as_full_screen_section="no" type="full_width" angled_section="no" text_align="left" background_image_as_pattern="without_pattern"][vc_column][vc_column_text]

WHEN YOU'RE IN THE AIRPORT
[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type="normal" color="#c9c9c9" thickness="1" up="20" down="20"][vc_column_text]For the last one — STRETCH — one of my all-time favorite stretches to do is a lunge twist, wringing out your spine before or after your flight.Check out the video link below to prevent bloating and indigestion when flying doing this full sequence.

BEST STRETCH ON THE PLANE
[/vc_column_text][vc_separator type="normal" color="#c9c9c9" thickness="1" up="20" down="20"][vc_column_text]You, of course, can do this creatively seated in a plane as well. Just do the twist from a seated variation using the arm-rests to assist your twist.Here's a sequence you can practice SEATED on an airplane.
