Hello Jen, Dale and all, Along this thread, I have

just found a newly published in English, GREAT new

book:

 

The Female Pelvis: Anatomy & Exercises

by Blandine Calais-Germain

 

http://www.eastlandpress.com/books/the_female_pelvis_anatomy_exercises.php

 

While this book is mostly oriented towards childbirth,

it's also got a lot of interesting stuff for all other

phases of a woman's life. I have been studying

alternative medicine on my own and formally for many

many years. Been through massage school, been through

TCM school, and still I learned quite a bit from this

book. I highly recommend it and the price at $24.95

USD is certainly right.

Oh and I forgot to mention that it's got info about

epidurals and how to avoid them, if you want to, with

exercise and massage, etc.

Wow! Thanks for the resource. I will check this one out.

 

Could be extremely useful for when I demonstrate to women that the tailbone is

not fixed, rather moves out of the way as baby descends - the greatest reason

why women should not birth lying on their backs and sitting on a hospital bed is

not the most optimal either.

 

Thanks Christina!!

All that and MORE! Not only will it show that about

the tail bone, but it has exercises to learn to move

the tail bone and the surrounding muscles voluntarily

and consciously! Not only will it show why women

should not be lying on their backs (for the tail bone

and other reasons), but it will show positions to be

in and others to avoid close to birth to encourage the

baby to be in the optimum position. And more. It's

really a great book and for $24.95!!! I have learned

a lot from skimming the book only once.
