#Con­struc­tive Rest — 21st Cen­tury Update

For the 2010 Inter­na­tional Asso­ci­a­tion for Dance Med­i­cine and Sci­ence (IADMS) con­fer­ence, we pre­sented a  highly effec­tive six minute rest and relax­ation pro­to­col for dancers. It has also proven espe­cially use­ful for pre/postnatal clients who expe­ri­ence low back dis­com­fort asso­ci­ated with sacro-iliac or sci­atic prob­lems. In addi­tion, new par­ents find it use­ful when their new­born takes a brief nap. This pro­to­col can be accom­plished in under 10 min­utes and leaves par­ents refreshed and ready to han­dle what­ever comes next.

Request the pdf at no cost from director@dancingthrupregnancy.com. Put CRP-IADMS in the sub­ject and ask for a copy of the rest protocol.

For preg­nant women who can­not lie on their backs for six min­utes, the pro­to­col can be adapted to roll onto the side once the posi­tion is achieved after the first cou­ple minutes.
