As many as 91.9% of women experience pain during labour, especially during the first stage of the active phase. Pain can be reduced by pharmacological and non pharmacological. Non pharmacological one of which is acupressure on point L14. Acupressure is one of the non-pharmacological methods that can be used during the delivery process. Acupressure points associated with labour pain include Hegu (L14), Zhiyin (BL 67), Kunlun (BL 60), Neiguan (PC 60), Sanyinjio (SP 6), Tianjin (GB 21), Dansu (BL19) points.

Thus, in addition to reducing acupressure pain at the L14 point, it can also accelerate the first stage of the labour process. Conclusion: Acuppressure at the L14 point is proven to be effective in reducing pain and speeding up the labor process.
