This week, Rebecca Dekker of Evidence Based Birth released a study about the effectiveness of aromatherapy when used in labor.
Those of us who utilize essential oils as a comfort measure for our clients have known this for a long time, but it was so wonderful to hear what she discovered as she did her own research. I encourage you to check out this link and take a listen! If you like what you hear, and you are expecting, you may be excited to know that I teach a comfort measures class that teaches clients and their partners how to utilize specific essential oils for each stage of labor. It really does make a difference! {One caution: When you use oils on your body or even in the air (via a diffuser), make sure that the product you are using is 100% therapeutic grade essential oil.} Check out this link and enjoy! evidencebasedbirth.com/aromatherapy-for-pain-relief-during-labor/
