Aquatic Exercise for Pregnancy

Aimed at midwives and health and fitness professionals, this practical, illustrated resource book covers every aspect of one of the most beneficial forms of exercise for pregnant mothers. Aquanatal exercise combines the therapeutic properties of warm water with suitably chosen music, to create a unique method of exercising. Unlike dry land exercise, which tends to work specific parts of the body, aquanatal exercise gently works the whole body. Written by two specialist coaches for the Register of Exercise Professionals (UK), who have developed the UK s first level3 Pregnancy Aquatics, Nutrition and Health module at the University of Salford, this book is the culmination of over ten years passionate interest and work in the field of aquanatal exercise.
