Painless Birth - Fact For masses of Russian Women - 07.02.2009
- Article Number: 7
| Most ladies can testify that birth is their most painful life experience in terms of physical pain. However, over two hundred Russian MDs, practicing the Buteyko self-oxygenation breathing therapy, revealed that superior body oxygenation guarantees pain-free childbirth.
The Buteyko breathing method is officially authorized, by the Russian Ministry of Health, holistic medical treatment to treat heart problems and asthma. It was developed in the 1960s by Russian MD and PhD Konstantin Buteyko, who was a boss of the respiration lab in Novosibirsk. During these times he led a classified work dedicated to study of air composition, breathing, body oxygenation and health of the first Soviet astronauts. Body oxygenation index is the main parameter of private health for this respiring system.
In order to determine body oxygenation Dr. Buteyko suggested a unstressed version of the breath holding time test. After common exhalation, measure how long the person can keep their breth in without discomfort or stress. The respiring pattern after the test should return to normal no gasping for breath or deep inhalations, a straightforward and unstressed test. Learn more at natural childbirth
Breathing pattern, as they disclosed, is the major factor that outlines body oxygen stores. How can they relate to each other? It is rather straightforward : the heavier and deeper one's breathing, the less their oxygenation. This law of respiring is in complete agreement with loads of medical studies : prolonged hyperventilation ( fast and deep breathing pattern) reduces tissue oxygen levels of all vital organs, including the brain, heart, liver, kidneys, etc.
Let's review how oxygenation and inhaling different groups of folks and how thisprinciple works. nowadays healthy folks have about 20-30 s of oxygen in their bodies ( after exhale and with no stress ). Their respiring is invisible and inaudible. It is light and relaxed.
Sick people with heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and many other chronic conditions have loud and visible breathing (chest movements) with about 10-20 s of oxygen depending on seriousness of their illness. Numerous studies proved that they breathe about 2-3 times more air than regular people, which is only six liters of air per m when resting.
Critically sick and hospitalised patients have less than ten seconds of oxygen. Their respiring is large and heavy as one can easily observe in hospitals.
The target of the Buteyko respiring methodology is to have over 60 s of oxygen 24/7. As practice of Russian MDs revealed, this level of oxygenation means liberty from many protracted conditions, including those mentioned above.
What does this mean for child birthing? Higher oxygen levels in muscle cells reduces their spasm and ensures their relaxed state and oxygen-saturated mitochondria for speedy and efficient kid delivery so the pregnant woman does not need to suffer for hours from unbearable pain.
Among the major factors that increase body oxygen levels ( or makes respiring at rest awfully light and simple ) are: - physical activity with strictly nasal respiring ( out and out) for over 2 hours per day; - prevention of any mouth breathing; - no longer sleeping on one's back; - straight posture; - eating only when hungry; and many others.
