Attends hospital births? All Hospitals I meet my patient at the hospital, if necessary, I go to her house to evaluate her contractions and bring her to the hospital when I judge the time is right to avoid all unnecessary interventions from the hospital, if possible, I stay with her to relieve her pain as much as possible, by the use of accupressure, reflexology, massages and visualisation. Attends birth center births? All Birth Centers It has always been a beautiful experience in the confort of a like home environment and with more freedom for the patient, a doula is necessary for the" sister or mother like" confort that she is there to give, the personnal at the birth centers are overworked and do not always have the patience to try to understand the needs of the future mother.
