Aquanatal is the safest way to exercise during pregnancy.

At Dynamic Chiropractic, we proudly offer Dynamic Aquanatal classes at Southern Swim School in Kirrawee. This program is designed to provide the safest pregnancy exercise possible. Led by Dr. Amy Norman, our Aquanatal classes ensure that you can stay active and healthy throughout your pregnancy.


Why Aquanatal is the Safest Choice


You may wonder what makes Aquanatal the safest pregnancy exercise. There are several key factors to consider:


  1. Suitable for All Stages

    Aquanatal is suitable for all stages of pregnancy, from the first trimester to the end of the third trimester. Unlike other forms of exercise, which may have restrictions, Aquanatal can be performed right up until your waters break. Dr. Amy Norman herself participated in Aquanatal just a week before giving birth. It was a fantastic way for her to maintain mobility and activity during her pregnancy.


  2. Pelvic Floor and Girdle Friendly

    Many pregnant women experience pelvic girdle pain, which can be aggravated by certain exercises. Aquanatal is gentle on the body and reduces downward pressure on the pelvic floor. Being in the water activates your deep core stabilising muscles, providing additional support and protection against injuries. The buoyancy of water also alleviates stress on your joints and ligaments, which is especially beneficial as your body carries extra weight during pregnancy.


  3. Prevents Overheating

    Overheating is a significant concern when exercising during pregnancy. Aquanatal takes place in water maintained at a safe temperature (between 28-33.4 degrees Celsius), which helps prevent overheating for both mother and baby. With a health professional present, you can be assured that exercises will be modified as needed, ensuring you maintain the right intensity.


  4. Reduces Fluid Swelling

    Another advantage of Aquanatal is its ability to help reduce fluid swelling. When immersed in water, up to 700ml of excess fluid can be shifted from your limbs back towards your heart. This is particularly beneficial during the third trimester, as it enhances comfort and mobility, ultimately contributing to a more positive birthing experience.
