Holism - the belief that body, mind and spirit are interconnected - along with the view of health as a balance of energy in the life forces, informs which of the following techniques for childbirth?
  1. Hypnosis
  2. Yoga
  3. Accupressure
  4. Feng shui
Explanation
Answer: C - Accupressure is a non-invasive practice of massaging or applying pressure to points in the body associated with improving function and transfer of energy. Chinese medicine has relied on acupressure as a healing modality for more than 5000 years. Hypnosis (inducing an altered state of consciousness) and yoga (a Hindu philosophy) might both be used as methods for relaxation in labor. Feng shui has more to do with energy in the environment - how items are arranged to maximize energy flow - than with internal energy.
