About this item
- STAY ACTIVE THROUGH EVERY TRIMESTER (AND BEYOND) — Built specifically as a yoga ball for pregnancy (maternity essentials): 1,000 lb static-load rating, CA 10P certified — stricter than a standard workout ball or large yoga ball. The included pregnancy book walks you through trimester-by-trimester exercises, pelvic-tilt sequences, and labor-prep movements, so you have a real guide in hand on day one. Available in 55 cm, 65 cm, and 75 cm; 65 cm fits most pregnant adults 5'4"-5'10".
- FOR FIRST-TIME MOMS, DOULAS, MIDWIVES & POSTPARTUM RECOVERY — First-time moms in the 3rd trimester use it as a balance ball to ease lower-back pressure and open the pelvis. Doula-supported home births reach for it as a birth ball for pregnancy and labor. Midwives recommend it as an exercise ball for pregnant women to encourage optimal fetal positioning (always confirm with your OB). Postpartum moms keep it as a maternity ball — also a popular pregnancy gift at baby showers.
- RELIEVES BACK PAIN, PGP & SPD — A pregnancy yoga ball that targets the muscles most affected by relaxin and a shifting center of mass: transverse abdominis, pelvic floor, lumbar spine, and the sacroiliac joint. Sitting and bouncing gently on this exercise ball pregnancy support can reduce pelvic girdle pain (PGP), symphysis pubis dysfunction (SPD), and lower-back tension that builds up by mid-pregnancy. Some moms call it a pregnancy exercise ball; others, a labor ball pregnancy support tool.
- PRENATAL CLASSES, HOME BIRTHS, LABOR & DESK USE — Use it during prenatal yoga sessions for cat-cow stretches and seated mobility (a prenatal yoga ball pregnancy mainstay), during labor for open-pelvis positions and pregnancy ball exercise for labor, and after birth as an active-sitting seat for nursing breaks. Pairs with a breastfeeding pillow, peanut ball for labor, prenatal yoga apps, and instructor channels like Pregnancy and Postpartum TV.
- INCLUDES BOOK, PUMP & PLUGS — 12-MONTH PROMISE — Ships with our pregnancy book, dual-action hand pump, 2 plugs and remover, and an illustrated quick-start guide. Inflate to ~80% first, let it stretch overnight, then top up. ProBody Pilates is a small US business that has been making pregnancy and pilates equipment since 2014. If your ball bursts or leaks within 12 months, message us and we'll replace it.
- INFLATION INSTRUCTIONS: Inflate swiss ball to roughly 80% of full size. Let the yoga ball relax for a minimum a few hours, preferably 2-3 days, then inflate fully. This will allow the ball to stretch to the desired size.
- TIP: Keep physio ball away from sharp claws, pencils and anything that can puncture the excercise ball. Our anti-burst material greatly reduces chance of injury by not popping instantaneously but allows slow release of air if punctured.
