What is Pain Management in Labour: Massage & Reflexology about?

This Cochrane review evaluates the effectiveness of massage, reflexology, and other manual methods for pain management during labor. The findings indicate low-quality evidence that massage significantly reduces pain intensity compared to usual care, particularly in the first stage of labor, but shows no clear benefits for other outcomes like length of labor or the need for pharmacological pain relief. The review highlights the need for further research due to the high risk of bias in many included studies.
