Abstract | Background: Labor pain is one of the most severe forms of pain experienced by women and can significantly impact their physical and emotional well-being. While pharmacological interventions are widely used, many women seek non-pharmacological alternatives that are safer and more holistic. Among these, ginger oil massage, a traditional therapy is gaining prominence for its analgesic and calming effects. Objective: This review aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the effectiveness, mechanisms, and clinical applicability of ginger oil massage as a non-pharmacological intervention for labor pain management in women’s health. Methods: An extensive review of literature from databases such as PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and CINHAL was conducted, focusing on clinical trials, meta-analyses, and review articles published between 2000 and 2024 that evaluated ginger oil massage for labor pain. Results: Studies demonstrate that ginger oil massage significantly reduces labor pain, improves maternal satisfaction, decreases anxiety, and may shorten the duration of labor. Its bioactive compounds act via anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and circulatory mechanisms. When used appropriately, it is safe and cost-effective. Conclusion: Ginger oil massage is a promising non-pharmacological tool for labor pain management. It aligns with the principles of woman-centered care and should be considered as a complementary intervention in obstetric practice. |
