Description
After many years of teaching acupressure to promote a better birth experience, Debra Betts has at last released a DVD – Acupressure for Natural Pain Relief in Labour. Professionally produced, with detailed explanations and full demonstrations of the techniques, this DVD is ideal for pregnant women and their partners and support people, doulas, midwives and practitioners of acupressure, acupuncture and shiatsu.
The acupressure methods outlined in the DVD are really easy to use, promote natural birth and encourage close partner involvement.
The DVD includes testimonials from women and their partners who have used the techniques during labour, and comes with an illustrated booklet with reminders of the points and their application.
Using acupressure for natural pain relief in labour can provide real support for labouring women who would prefer to not use drugs during labour and childbirth.
