Movement and variation in positions can make a big difference during labor. A yoga ball supports the body, relieves pressure on the pelvis, and helps baby find a good position – both before and during labor.

Pain balls can be used both on land and in water and are suitable for use in the birthing tub, where they can provide targeted pain relief in conjunction with the soothing effect of the water.

For rest between contractions and after birth, tail and heating pads can provide soothing warmth and relief to the pelvis, lower back, and tailbone.

By combining the aids that feel right for you, you can create a safe environment and give your body the best conditions to work calmly and naturally through birth, regardless of whether you give birth at home or in the hospital.
