Pregnancy Ball Exercises

Written By Inspire Chiropractic

Whether you’re feeling discomfort in pregnancy or you’re simply looking for ways to prepare your body for labor, try exercising with a fitness ball. A fitness ball is a good exercise aid for pregnant women because it provides the support you need and gently works your abdominal muscles without putting pressure on your back or pelvis.

The pregnancy ball exercises Dr. Becky explains in the video can help relieve tension or pressure in your hips and lower back. Plus, they’re a great addition to your chiropractic care for promoting balance and preparing for birth.

Doing these exercises regularly is one of the best ways to prepare for labor. The pregnancy ball exercises are low-intensity, and they:

  • aid overall comfort

  • strengthen your lower back

  • support the pelvis

  • balance your ligaments and muscles

*If any of these movements cause pain, stop and contact your health care provider.
