What Is Spinning Babies in Barrington?

Spinning Babies® is a physiological approach to preparing for and caring for birth, based on easing the baby’s rotation. When rotation is easier for the baby, birth is often easier for the mother. A “malpositioned” baby is one that can’t enter the pelvis; lying sideways (transverse lie) or diagonally (oblique lie), or one that doesn’t fit as well because the chin is up.
Spinning Babies® helps the baby get into position for birth and helps support a normal, even natural, childbirth. To make position changes easier for the baby, we include spinal alignment, muscle lengthening (toning not strengthening), and overall body balancing.
