Peanut Ball
State-of-the-Art Rehabilitation & Therapy Modality
A peanut ball is a peanut-shaped, inflatable ball used during labor to help open the pelvis and facilitate the baby's descent. It is particularly useful for individuals with an epidural or those who need to stay in bed, as it allows for positioning changes that mimic the benefits of squatting and can help shorten labor and promote vaginal delivery.
✨ At Bansal Physiotherapy Clinic, we leverage the latest medical advancements and high-quality equipment to provide tailored recovery options for every patient.
- Pelvic widening: Placed between the legs to keep hips open, simulating a squatting posture while lying down.
- Fetal positioning: Helps align and rotate the baby into an optimal position for descent through the birth canal.
- Fatigue reduction: Supports the legs comfortably, minimizing strain and maternal exhaustion during labor.
- Labor facilitation: Widens the pelvic outlet to shorten the first and second stages of labor.
- Bed-rest alignment: Ideal for keeping the pelvis open in patients who have received an epidural and must remain in bed.
- Vaginal birth promotion: Statistically associated with higher rates of successful, uncomplicated vaginal deliveries.
