Abstract: Neuraxial analgesia remains the gold standard for achieving analgesia in labour. Many women, however, prefer to employ less invasive techniques to relieve pain during labour. Most non-neuraxial methods of analgesia will never provide complete pain relief during labour, but at best, represent techniques that allow a woman ‘to cope’ with her labour pain.
