What is Painless Birth?
Painless childbirth is a method that allows expectant mothers to spend the birth process more comfortable and relaxed thanks to anesthesia methods applied to alleviate or completely eliminate labor pains. In this way, stress and pain during the birth process are minimized and a safer and more peaceful environment is provided for both mother and baby.
How to Have a Painless Birth?
In our clinic in Çiğli, Izmir, the most appropriate method for painless delivery is determined after a detailed assessment of the condition of the expectant mother. Epidural anesthesia, one of the most common methods, is applied with an injection into the lumbar region. This method greatly reduces labor pains and makes the birth process more comfortable for the mother. During the procedure, the safety and comfort of the expectant mother is prioritized and continuously monitored by an expert team.
