World Haemophilia Day: From Balasana, to Vajrasana to Tadasana, here is a list of yoga asanas that can be taken up in order to beat Haemophilia.

World Haemophilia Day: A bleeding disorder, Haemophilia leads to the inability of the blood to clot. When we get a cut or a bruise, normally the clotting factors of the blood mix with the platelets to make the blood sticky, forming clot and stopping the blood loss. However, in case of Haemophilia, the blood does not clot normally, leading to excessive bleeding. Every year, April 17 is celebrated as World Haemophilia day to create awareness on Haemophilia and other inherited bleeding disorders. It is also observed to bring people suffering with Haemophilia worldwide, together.
