For clients who would like to try using hydrotherapy as a comfort measure during labor, or who want to attempt a water birth, an inflatable birth pool is provided as part of your home birth service with Origin Story.

Water immersion can be a helpful tool for relieving pain and reducing stress during labor, thereby encouraging healthy and effective hormones, consistent with normal physiological birth.

Studies have shown that for low-risk mothers experiencing labor without complications, water birth can be a safe option for babies.
