    Garbh Sanskar therapy is an Ayurvedic antenatal therapy that includes spiritual music, meditation, chanting and lifestyle modifications. A study of 100 pregnant women found benefits of Garbh Sanskar therapy over routine medical care alone. The therapy group had a higher percentage of normal birth weights (90% vs 86%) and fewer complications like low birth weight (6% vs 8%) or interventions during delivery (0% vs 2-4%). The holistic approach of Garbh Sanskar therapy may prepare babies prenatally for improved physical, mental and spiritual health. The study concludes it should be recommended as part of routine antenatal care.

    EFFECT OF GARBH SANSKAR THERAPY ON PREGNANCY


    Dr. Gur Devi Srivastava, Dr. Anjoo Bhatnagar, Dr. Ajit Srivastava
    Dayalbagh Educational Institute, Dayalbagh, Agra,
    INTRODUCTION:
    Garbh Sanskar is an Ayurvedic therapy given to mothers during pregnancy. Nowadays it is not used in modern medical antenatal
    care in the hospitals. Researchers have claimed that Garbh Sanskar therapy can upgrade and repair hereditary dysfunctional
    genes. Studies have proven that prenatal meditation has a positive effect on intrauterine fetal learning ability and mental and
    behavioural abilities of baby [1]. Garbh Sanskar therapy educates the baby in womb leading to better sleeping habits and more
    alertness and confidence after birth. Thus, here we have studied the effect of Garba Sanskar in our patients.

    OBJECTIVE:
    To find benefits of holistic approach (Garbh Sanskar Therapy) of pregnancy management
    MATERIAL AND METHODS:
    • 100 Uncomplicated pregnant women above 12 weeks of gestation in Gynae OPD of Saran Ashram Hospital Dayallbagh Agra
    (Health care Habitat) were selected for antenatal care during January – December 2020.
    • 50 cases of study group were managed by holistic approach using Garbh Sanskar Therapy consultation physically and/or via
    tele-medicine in form of Satvic food advice, Spiritual music, Motivational stories, Surat Shabd Yoga (ultra transcendental
    meditation), Chanting of Holy name Ra-Dha-Soa-Mi at four chakras and Antenatal exercises apart from routine modern
    medical antenatal care in form of antenatal checkups and investigations like Blood test and ultrasonography etc.
    • 50 Non Garbh Sanskarit antenatal cases were taken as Control group for comparison on parameters of birth weight of baby
    and incidence of complications in the form of requirement of manual removal of placenta and low cavity forceps application
    OBSERVATIONS:
    • Equally matched two groups of Garbh Sanskarit and Non Garbh Sanskarit patients
    were constituted.
    • Age of patients were between 22 to 34 years
    • Parity of patients were between 1 to 4 and duration of pregnancy was between 12
    to 36 weeks.
    • Two groups were compared on the parameters of birth weight and number of
    complications.
    • In control group normal birth weight was observed in 86% cases low-birth-weight in
    8% cases and high birth weight in 6% cases
    • In study group normal birth weight was observed in 90% cases low-birth-weight in
    6% cases and high birth weight in 4%cases
    • In control group low cavity forceps application was needed in 2% cases and manual
    removal of placenta in 4% cases .
    • None of above complications were seen in study group.
    DISCUSSION:
    Satvik food improves maternal and fetal health. Spiritual music, meditation and chanting of Holy name Radhasoami increases
    consciousness of both mother and baby. It also gives positive energy to mother which alleviates anxiety and fear of pregnancy
    promoting easy labor. Motivational stories helps in fetal brain development and strengthens mother child bonding .
    CONCLUSION:
    • Increased incidence of average birth weight of baby in study group and less incidence of complications indicates beneficial
    effect of prenatal Garbh Sanskar Therapy. It is a program to get perfect progeny-physically fit, mentality alert and spiritually
    blissful child.
    • It is a holistic and dignified healthcare provision incorporating lifestyle modifications for pregnant women thus helping in
    maternal and child health care programme of government. Hence, it is recommended as a part of routine antenatal care in the
    hospitals.
