Birth Movement: Using the Rebozo, Selendang, or Sling in the Hospital Setting

This video shows how a selendang, rebozo, shawl, or bedsheet can be used for sifting. This gentle movement relieves uterine ligament tension during pregnancy, and it can be used to facilitate fetal rotation and descent during labor. It can be used with or without an epidural. Produced by Katherine Parker Bryden, CD(DONA) and Jun-Nicole Matsushita, CD (CBI), HCHD. The cloth used in this video is a selendang, available through HUGS (Help Us Give Slings).
