Easy Exercises for Pregnancy
Author(s): Janet Balaskas
This practical guide should be useful for every woman who wishes to approach the birth of her baby feeling fit, relaxed and confident. It offers a simple, safe and reliable programme of exercises which, followed throughout pregnancy, should reduce stress and fatigue, increase fitness and suppleness, help towards a healthy, comfortable birth, and encourage a quick recovery. Introductory pages contain all the necessary general guidance and essential information. This is followed by a section on "Exercising On Your Own", a complete programme of basic exercises which every woman can do in her own home. Part 2, "Working with a Partner", gives guidelines for exercising with a partner at home or in a group or class, and includes easy massage techniques. All exercises are illustrated in easy-to-follow, full-colour photographs, with adjacent step-by-step instructions. Janet Balaskas is the author of "Active Birth", "The Encyclopedia of Pregnancy and Childbirth", "Natural Pregnancy", "Water Birth" and "Preparing for Birth with Yoga".
