Most women can testify that birth is their most agonizing life experience re physical pain. However, over 200 Russian MDs, practicing the Buteyko self-oxygenation breathing therapy, revealed that superior body oxygenation ensures pain-free childbirth.

The Buteyko breathing method is officially approved, by the Russian Ministry of Health, holistic medical care to treat heart disease and asthma. It was discovered in the 1960s by Russian MD and PhD Konstantin Buteyko, who was a manager of the respiration lab in Novosibirsk. During these times he led a secret project dedicated to study of air composition, breathing, body oxygenation and health of the first Soviet astronauts. Body oxygenation level is the prime parameter of personal health for this breathing system.

Breathing patterns, as they exclaimed, is the most significant factor that defines body oxygen reserves. How do they relate to each other? It is rather simple : the heavier and deeper one's breathing, the less their oxygenation.

Let us consider oxygenation and inhaling different groups of people and how thisprinciple works. Modern healthy people have about 20-30 s of oxygen in their bodies (after exhale and with no stress ). It is light and relaxed.

Many studies showed that they breathe about 2-3 times more air than the medical norm, which is only six litres of air per minute when resting.

Critically unwell and hospitalised patients have less than 10 seconds of oxygen. Their breathing is giant and heavy as one can simply observe in hospitals.

The objective of the Buteyko respiring methodology is to have over sixty s of oxygen 24/7.

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 fast and efficient child delivery so the pregnant woman does not need to struggle for hours from unbearable pain.

- activity with precisely nasal breathing (in and in ) for over 2 hours per day;
- stop any mouth breathing;
- straight posture;
- eating limited to hunger;
