In Hinduism
Yoga (school of philosophy)
The Joints (of one’s body) are denoted by the Sanskrit term Sandhi, according to the Jayākhyasaṃhitā verse 33.19.—Accordingly, “[The Yogin] should make the joints (sandhi) of his body loose, his chest broad and shoulders comfortable. Having made his arms relaxed, he should slightly tilt the head [down]”.

Yoga is originally considered a branch of Hindu philosophy (astika), but both ancient and modern Yoga combine the physical, mental and spiritual. Yoga teaches various physical techniques also known as āsanas (postures), used for various purposes (eg., meditation, contemplation, relaxation).
