Lamaze Method

The Lamaze method is a childbirth preparation technique that focuses on natural, pain-managed labor. Developed by French obstetrician Fernand Lamaze, it emphasizes breathing exercises, relaxation techniques, and education to help expectant mothers cope with the sensations of labor. By teaching women to understand their body’s natural responses, Lamaze promotes confidence and empowerment during childbirth. It also encourages the presence of a partner or support person to provide reassurance and help. Overall, the Lamaze method fosters a positive birth experience by equipping parents with tools to manage pain and reduce anxiety.
