Mensendieck
Carita Salome
Exercise therapy is named after its founder Bess Mensendieck (1867-1957). It is an adequate remedy for complaints resulting from an overly stressful posture or way of moving. As a Mensendieck remedial therapist Carita ensures that complaints are prevented or reduced by teaching healthy habits of posture and movement.

HaptoMotion
Central to this is the guidance of both parents. Through exercises, stress is reduced, which improves the development of the child and also the birth. For the mother the counseling helps to make contact with her changing body and to listen to it. In this way she will know better what she needs and how to ask for it during pregnancy and childbirth. The partner also plays an important role in this.

Yoga
Pregnancy Yoga in the van Ostadestraat
Pregnancy Yoga is about being pregnant in every exercise, quiet or active. Your body is changing and to spend 90 minutes once or twice a week reflecting on this is very valuable. It is important to stay fit but also to relax during pregnancy. In the lessons you will do powerful exercises to stay or become strong and relaxing exercises to take good care of yourself and your upcoming baby. So it is a healthy workout.
