Dance can be a powerful ally to favor vertical birth.

The World Health Organization recommends that it is the woman who decides the position of the birth, something that is still not respected in most of our maternity homes. Walking and moving helps the baby's head press the cervix, increasing oxytocin production and helping the child find his way to be born.
Dancing can help the mother relax and produce more endorphins, making childbirth less painful. Also, the movements relax the pelvic floor, facilitating the rotation and descent of the baby.
They even propose us, in this video, that the couple accompany the dance, slowly, making the contractions a part of it.
The benefits of freedom of movement and vertical delivery or in the position decided by women are enhanced by the possibility of dance during contractions.
