Water Birth

Yes, we do water birth. And yes, we call them Aquadurals. Hydrotherapy has long been a mode of pain management and has actually been used as a labor comfort measure for many, many years.

So how does hydrotherapy help with your labor? It is rather simple. It is sensory overload. Your body is feeling so many sensations all at one time, and submersion in the water helps your body cope with these physical sensations.

The buoyancy of being in the water actually helps with circulation, releases endorphins, and decreases anxiety, and because of this, it is often a favorite labor comfort management option. In addition, hydrotherapy is drug-free, and you have the most beneficial choice for pain management!

 According to studies highlighted in an article by Evidence Based Birth, episiotomy rates drastically decreased with the use of water birth. The relaxation and action of the pelvic floor are drastically improved with water immersion.

We designed our birth suites at Heart 2 Heart Birth Center to cater to your desire for a peaceful, beautiful, and carefully attended water birth. Our jetted tubs are comfortably heated and deep.
