The Power of Distraction is Remarkable.
Engaging in calming or immersive activities, such as VR, can reduce the perception of pain by redirecting attention.
Distraction helps shift the mother’s focus away from pain and anxiety, allowing her brain to process sensations differently.
When the mind is focused on positive stimuli, it reduces the production of stress hormones like adrenaline, which can slow labor, and promotes the release of endorphins and oxytocin, which help manage pain and facilitate contractions. This creates a sense of calm and control.
