Suffering from back ache? Prenatal yoga can help, Clare shows the best poses to alleviate the pain and help you enjoy a healthy, active pregnancy!
Back pain in pregnancy is often a result of changes in your posture as the pregnancy hormone relaxin loosens your ligaments and the weight of the baby causes the back of your waist to arch more. It’s important to stand tall, with slightly bent knees. This will help you gently drop your tail bone towards the floor and release the compression in the lower back.
Wearing supportive clothes to ease the weight of your baby bump and encourage good posture is helpful if you’re suffering from pregnancy back ache. Regular prenatal yoga can be really beneficial too: Clare Maddalena of LushTums talks you through some pregnancy yoga poses to help ease your backache.
Watch this video and follow it with pregnancy yoga for breathing techniques, pregnancy yoga for circulation, and pregnancy yoga for pelvic floor strength!
Always consult your midwife or doctor if you have any concerns about your health, your pregnancy or the health of your baby.
