 Save this hashtag now: #ppnchat

Our theme this time will be ‘alignment, pain points and posture’.

 

I know all too well, this a difficult issue for our pre/postnatal clients to deal with.

This Twitter chat is for ANYONE who works with pregnant or postnatal women, eg Reflexologists, Fertility Experts, Massage Therapists, Baby Yoga Teachers, Physios, Chiropractors, Osteopaths – you name it!

I’ll be encouraging people to introduce themselves, answer a few questions to get the conversation flowing and hopefully enable you to connect with others around you in similar fields of study or locality. I’ve met a few others in my local area which has been really nice.

 

A FEW GUIDELINES…

1. Every tweet you send must contain the hashtag #ppnchat (otherwise you’ll be just talking to yourself).
2. Sign into twitter and search for the hashtag, or add it as a column in hoot suite/tweetdeck or use an application such as tweetchat (which is what I do).
3. There will be 5 questions on the #ppnchat which will be numbered Q1, Q2, Q3 and so on, as follows:
   • Q1 – What are the main postural problems you see in your pre/postnatal classes?
   • Q2 – What do you think attributes to poor posture during pregnancy/after birth?
   • Q3 – What the main pain sites your pre/postnatal clients deal with?
   • Q4 – How much do you think the role of alignment plays in your clients’ ability to have a pain-free pregnancy/postnatal recovery?
   • Q5 – What impact does posture have on pelvic floor and abdominal separation issues?
4. When answering a question, please include ‘A1′ at the beginning, followed by your answer eg A1 Yes, I test all of my postnatal clients for abdominal separation when they come along to my fitness and Pilates classes#ppnchat
5. Tweets must be fewer than 140 characters, so keep things short.
6. Twitter’s tagline is ‘Join the Conversation’, so please don’t be shy!

If you miss it, don’t worry. We will upload the transcript after the event,

Please help spread the word about #ppnchat on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram or via your mailing list.

See you ‘virtually’ on Tuesday 11 November at 2:30pm!
