Spinning Babies® is a revolutionary approach to childbirth preparation and care that focuses on the physiological aspects of birth. Created by midwife Gail Tully, this method aims for easier childbirth by facilitating the baby’s natural rotation through the pelvis, a process known as fetal rotation.
During childbirth, babies navigate through the pelvis by turning to fit each curve. Spinning Babies® simplifies this process, aiming for easier birth for both the mother and the baby. By enhancing our understanding of birth physiology, Spinning Babies® helps in “Changing Birth on Earth.”
Spinning Babies® offers a fresh perspective beyond the traditional “natural vs. managed” childbirth debate. Instead of choosing between technology and nature, this approach integrates the best of both. Medicine and midwifery work together to support the body’s natural processes, using interventions only when necessary.
Rather than relying solely on technology or medication, Spinning Babies® focuses on activating the body’s natural abilities. By starting with physiology and moving to interventions if needed, this method provides a more holistic approach to childbirth.
Self-care and specific body activities play a crucial role in restoring body balance, creating more space for the baby. This allows babies to position themselves optimally for childbirth within the available anatomical space.
Therapy Unlimited offers a unique pregnancy preparation program featuring labor activities designed to ease the birthing process. The Spinning Babies® approach can be used alongside any childbirth method or even independently.
