Helps With
A soothing upper body stretch that helps release tension through the ribs, waist and lower back while creating extra space for your growing baby.
Instructions
-
1
Seated Start
Begin in a seated ball position with one hand resting on your thigh or hip.
-
2
Reach Up
Slowly bring your opposite arm up and over your head.
-
3
Lean Gently
Lean to the side as you reach, keeping your arm slightly bent at the elbow.
-
4
Feel the Stretch
Hold the position and feel the stretch down the side of your body.
-
5
Return & Switch
Calmly come back to centre and repeat on the opposite side.
Tip
Breathe into the stretched side — each inhale opens your ribs a little more and helps create real space for baby to move up.
