Summary of the findings


Nonpharmacologic Pain Relief is Effective: Techniques such as water immersion, massage, and acupressure were shown to reduce pain without medication. These methods tap into natural pain mechanisms in the body, helping mothers feel more in control and satisfied with their birth experiences.

Reduced Need for Medical Interventions: The study found that using these non-drug methods lowered the chances of needing an epidural, C-section, or other interventions, leading to a more natural birth process.

Increased Satisfaction and Comfort: Women reported higher satisfaction with labor and a better ability to cope with pain. This suggests that GentleBirth's methods can help clients feel empowered and positive about their birthing experience.
