Bizarre: Even though the babies are clearly uncomfortable as they are swung and flipped by therapist Lena Fokina, she is adamant they enjoy the exercise
Look like dolls: But the 51-year-old says insists they are real babies and says she has been practising the unconventional techniques for the past 30 years

Shocking: There are concerns that the techniques produce 'dramatic and unnatural movements' which have been linked to Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS)

I didn't think I could be shocked any more by modern society. This proves me wrong.
So very, very sad.

I think I had a uncle that use to do this to me and the other babies in the family. Of course he was usually drunk and was kind of strange even when sober. Needless to say the mothers usually tried to keep us away from him when he came over, but he always seemed to grab a baby when nobody was looking. Most of us have a vaguely uneasy feeling when we see him to this day...

Uh, yeah. Insane.
What concerns me is that this might take off within yoga circles. New Agers tend to have poor judgement.
To: Altariel
I’ve got to show this to my wife. She will FREAK OUT.

This is child abuse.**************************
Agreed. Even if by some miracle there is no physical damage, I can't believe that there isn't psychological damage. Babies and children need to feel safe with adults.
When we were children my mother was very careful to teach us how to hold a baby.

This is a good way to break fragile limbs and dislocate joints. She ought to be arrested.

What is UP with that?
They swoon at the mention of chakras and crystals, yet reject basic common sense.
I see this in people who I know are intelligent - I went to school with them.
Then they got the yoga bug....
