Perineal massage increases elasticity of myofascial perineal tissue and decreases the burning and perineal pain during labour, thus optimising child birth, although an application protocol has not been standardised yet. The objective of this study is to determine the efficiency of massage in perineal tear prevention and identification of possible differences in massage application. Total of 90 pregnant participants were divided into three groups: perineal massage and EPI-NO® device group, applied by an expert physiotherapist, self-massage group, where women were instructed to apply perineal massage in domestic household, and a control group, which received ordinary obstetric attention. Results: The results showed significant differences among the control group and the two perineal massage groups in perineal postpartum pain. Correlations in perineal postpartum pain, labour duration and the baby’s weight were not statistically significant. Lithotomy posture was significantly less prevalent in the massage group than in the other two; this variable is known to have a direct effect on episiotomy incidence and could act as a causal covariate of the different incidence of episiotomy in the groups. Perineal massage reduces postpartum perineal pain, prevalence and severity of perineal tear during delivery.

The objective of this study to determine the effectiveness of the SPEOS methods in increasing breast milk production in postpartum mothers. A literature review through a review of nursing articles to identify SPEOS methods in increasing breast milk production in postpartum mothers. The author identifies research questions, identifies relevant articles, select articles, maps data and summarizes, analyzes and reports data. The databases used are Scopus, Medica Local Update, One Search and Google Scholar. Articles were filtered according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. 7 articles include the inclusion and exclusion criteria requirements, then the article was synthesized to see which was affected by SPEOS method, the duration of the SPEOS method, and the time the SPEOS method war administered. This literature review shows that the SPEOS methods effective in increasing breast milk production in postpartum mothers. The SPEOS method not only helps physically but psychologically through oxytocin, endorphin massage, and suggestive. The SPEOS method is carried out for a minimum of 3 days to get an increase in milk production. This method should be done 2 times a day for maximum results for at least 14 minutes. The SPEOS methods are effective in increasing breast milk production in postpartum mothers.
