Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Hypnobirthing is a birth philosophy and method that prepares women physically and psychologically for giving birth. It is important to break the fear-tension-pain cycle in HypnoBirthing training. Because the continuity of the cycle increases the pain related to birth, and as the pain increases, the fear increases. In this case, the duration of labor is prolonged, birth success, shape, preference, course and satisfaction are negatively affected. Therefore, this training helps to reduce pain and fear related to labor and increase labor satisfaction. Similarly, it has been determined in the literature that oxytocin (back massage) massage during pregnancy increases uterine contractions, reduces labor pain and duration of labor, accelerates postpartum uterine involution, significantly increases the amount of breast milk, and increases mother-baby attachment. The pregnant education role of the health professional is an effective factor that shapes the birth experience of pregnant women. For this purpose, health professionals in the world and in our country are actively involved in pregnancy education programs in which different methods are applied. The most common ones are Lamaze, Bradly and HypnoBirthing. These trainings also serve to reduce pain and fear related to childbirth, increase labor and postpartum satisfaction, and meet the need for professional support and education of pregnant women. When the studies on HypnoBirthing training and oxytocin massage are examined in the literature, it is noteworthy that there is a very limited number of studies. Therefore, there is a need for well-designed randomized controlled trials that can create a level of evidence for HypnoBirthing training and oxytocin massage.
