Abstract

The natal chair comprises an aluminium alloy frame, thigh support board (5), adjustable rubber sleeved chest bar (7), impervious-vinyl tension-adjustable body-sling (13), cloth forehead rest sling (15) and handgrips (11). The chair supports the mother's thighs, shoulders and forehead in one of six forward leaning elevations so that her complete vertebra is accessable for massage. In all of these elevations her feet may be comfortable under her centre of gravity (in line with the resultant force acting on her body), ready to take any proportion of her weight during contractions, or between contractions if she wishes to stand and ambulate. In any of these positions she may squat or sit upright if she so desires without any external pressure on the sacrum. <IMAGE>
