BACKGROUND: Labor pain is a physiological process caused by the contraction of uterus muscle as an effort to open the cervix and push the baby’s head toward the pelvis. One of the treatments giving by nurses to reduce the pain is by counter-pressure therapy. AIM: The aim of the study was to determine the effect of counter-pressure therapy using tennis balls toward the pain level in the first stage during the active phase of labor. METHODS: It was a quasi-experimental study with pretest-posttest one group design. The population in this study was patients with active phase I delivery in PKU Muhammadiyah Hospital of Temanggung. A total of 26 respondents were selected through purposive sampling technique. The data were analyzed using Wilcoxon matched paired test. RESULTS: The pain intensity in 26 respondents (100%) in the first stage during the active phase of labor before the treatment was categorized as severe pain. However, after the implementation of the counter-pressure therapy using tenis ball, the pain intensity was categorized as moderate in 18 respondents (69.2%) and severe in the rest of the respondents (30.8%). CONCLUSION: Counter-pressure massage therapy using a tennis ball was effective in reducing the level of pain in the first stage during the active phase of labor with a p = 0.000 (α < 0.05).

Background: Untreated pain can cause death in both mother and baby because pain can cause breathing and the mother's heart rate to increase which causes blood flow and oxygen to the placenta to be disrupted. Counterpressure massage which is a strong pressure massage by putting the heel of the hand or a flat part of the hand, or also using a tennis ball. Aims: of this study was to determine the differences in the effectiveness of counterpressure massage with massage effleurage against first stage labor pain in the Special Hospital of the Mother and Child Pertiwi Makassar area. Method: This study uses a Quasi Experiment research method with a pre-test post-test control design approach. The sample selection is done by consecutive sampling technique, the number of samples is 20 respondents (10 respondents for counterpressure massage and 10 respondents for massage effleurage). Data were processed using the Mann-Whitney test. Results: From the data analysis, the results obtained p-value = 0.009. Discussion: This shows that the value of p <α, then the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted.

Introduction: Labor pain is a challenging issue for nurses designing intervention protocols. Touch and massage therapy is one of non-pharmacology approaches that they could do during labor process. The study was conducted to assess the effectiveness in reducing pain intensity scale on the labor during first stage of active phase. Methods: A quasi-experimental approach was conducted and a purposive sampling technique was used to recruit 56 women who expected to have normal childbirth at a public hospital in Jakarta, Indonesia. They randomly assigned to either received touch and massage intervention (experiment) or not (control). The labor pain intensity was using Verbal Description Scale (VDS) with descriptive statistics, paired, and independent t-test. Results: The result showed that touch and massage therapy had a significant impact on the experimental group (tcalI 2.839, p<0.05). A significant difference also showed among the experimental dan control group during pre-test (tcalI 1.817, p>0.05) and post-test (tcalI 10.77, p<0.05). The study found that a combination of touch and massage therapy was effective to reduce labor pain during active stage. Conclusions: Touch and massage therapy can reduce labor pain intensity, and at the same time serve as closeness and encouragement during the first stage of active phase. It is a cost-effective nursing intervention and can positively influence the quality of women’s birth experiences.

The pain in labor due to contractions and the process of expelling the baby cannot be avoided by the mother. One way to reduce pain intensity non-pharmacologically is music therapy and the provision of spice drinks. music therapy can reduce stress and anxiety levels, especially during childbirth, while herbal drinks derived from ginger are analgesic, as well as cinnamon and cloves, can relieve pain. The research method is “Quasi experimental pre-post test with control group design. The intervention group was Sundanese instrumental music therapy with spice drinks and the control group was only given spice drinks, which was carried out on mothers giving birth during an active phase. The population is all mothers giving birth in BPM Bogor area. The sample size of the average difference test of two paired groups is 15 respondents in each group. The results showed a decrease in labor pain in the active phase of the first stage in the intervention group with p = 0.016. This shows that there is an effect of giving music therapy and spice drinks on the intensity of labor pain as assessed by the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and there is no significant change in the decrease in labor pain during the active phase of labor, in the control group (p>0.05). There was no significant result on the length of labor with p = 0.439 (p > 0.05). This means that both the control and intervention groups did not show a difference in the time/length of labor
