Abstract
Despite the known prevalence of complementary medicine use by women during pregnancy and childbirth and the evolution of preferred models of maternity care, very little is known about the nature and characteristics of the care provided to women by complementary medicine practitioners during this important life stage.
Woman-centred care is a speciation of person-centred care which has achieved prominence in maternity care policy in recent years. There is also evidence that the core principles of some complementary medicine systems of medicine emphasise patient-centeredness and that these principles are core drivers toward complementary medicine use in multiple populations. This study aims to explore the approach to care delivered by complementary medicine practitioners to women during pregnancy and birth.
