Water immersion, such as through the use of a birth pool for labour and birth can offer a range of physical and emotional benefits. Warm water helps relax the muscles, ease labour pains and promote comfort, while the buoyancy creates a sense of weightlessness, which can be very much welcomed after labouring for some time and fatigue and heaviness have set in. 

Immersion in water encourages optimal positioning and movement and can help improve blood flow and supports a sense of calm and privacy. Many people find that labouring in water helps them feel more in control, reduces the need for interventions and provides a soothing, supportive environment for labour and birth.
