Water Birth Treatment
Water birth is childbirth that occurs in the pool of warm water. Water birth results in a more relaxed, less painful experience. It reduces the need for analgesic injections.
What are the benefits of water birth?
Warm waters promote more efficient uterine contractions and improved blood circulation resulting in better oxygenation of the uterine muscles, less pain for the mother, and more oxygen for the baby.
