Childbirth represents the last stage of conception in the maternal organism. During this period, the parturient experiences one of the most striking painful perceptions, and it is up to the professionals, in a humanized way, to bring relief to the woman. Pain is an unpleasant emotional and sensory experience, associated with actual or potential injuries. In this regard, we seek to provide humanized care, which is extremely important, with the use of methods for pain relief, which will not lead the pregnant woman to undergo a range of pharmacological interventions, which may often be unnecessary, as which is of paramount importance when thinking about the importance of maintaining the physiological state. Therefore, an integrative literature review was carried out, described as a research method that allows for the search, critical assessment and synthesis of available evidence on the topic studied. In this aspect, it is possible to see that it is already known that there are non-pharmacological methods that effectively help to reduce pain and anxiety during childbirth. Therefore, further research is suggested on the benefits of such methods, confirming that these techniques are really effective in reducing pain and anxiety resulting from the delivery period and can, therefore, be more applied in obstetric care services.
