Partner-Assisted Rebozo for Birth Comfort
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a partner-assisted rebozo technique — a gentle way to help ease pain and fear during labor. Your partner wraps a scarf around your belly and sways it rhythmically, with guidance from a nurse, to make you more comfortable.
