Method in the music

Music has huge significance and power in our lives. You’ve certainly experienced goosebumps when the right song comes on at just the right moment. All cultures use music to mark the seasons of the year as well as for special occasions and milestone moments. There are songs and lullabies for babies, nursery rhymes and playground songs, music for weddings, birthdays and funerals. Whenever something important happens, we use music to make it special, to mark it out from ordinary daily life. Which day could be more significant than the one your baby is born?

ALTERNATIVE RELIEF

Many analgesics and anaesthetic agents are available during labour and delivery, but none are completely free from side effects for you and Baby.

That’s why you’re probably keen to seek out ways to ease the pain and discomfort of labour by using alternative, nonmedicated forms of pain relief.
