Western provides Water birth for baby delivery.

Water therapy for laboring women has been available for Western patients since 2000.  It is believed that warm water releases the body’s own natural morphine thereby reducing pain during labor.  Since July 2004, our Certified Nurse Midwives have offered water birth as an option.  This allows the laboring woman to remain in the pool to give birth.
