Pain Relief for Labor and Delivery

The most effective form of pain relief during labor is a type of regional anesthesia known as epidural analgesia. Epidural analgesia means placing a local anesthetic in that space so that the anesthetic bathes the nerves on their way in and out of the spinal cord, thereby taking away the pain without harming the unborn child. About 90% of our expectant mothers choose epidural analgesia as their anesthetic.
