My friend you ought to try the following program:

Cleansing techniques: Shanka Prakshalana

Yoga asanas: Just do inverted poses such as Headstand, Shoulder Stand and Inverted Leg Stretch Pose. You must not do any forward bends, standing or seated.

Yoga breathing exercises: Do lots of Alternate Nostril breathing and Ocean breath. Please avoid all forceful breathing..

Having more fluids is very much recommended for all of you with a history of kidney stones. Also please keep away from dairy products and other calcium rich foods. Vitamin D foods should be inaccessible to you, by and large. Also if you have highly acidic urine, have less eat less meat, fish, and poultry.

And, in conclusion, if you are leading a sedentary lifestyle, you will be more prone to kidney stones. So, to preclude the possibility of further stone formation, you must try to have lots of magnesium, potassium, Vitamin E, and Vitamin B6 supplements.
