The following are some of the various uses of rebozo.
Birthing of a woman’s hips during labor is a very huge factor when it comes to their actual motivation and continuance in the process without much difficulty which is why the rebozo is important because it helps in the whole controlling of the motions and swaying of the hips. The movements that are made during this process are described as a pelvic message, jiggling or rocking with which a care provider or any other person can provide support to the woman in labor while she is lying down, standing or is on hands-and-knees.
The position of the foetus is very significant when it comes to the labor process and rebozo is the right instrument for adjusting the posterior position to make sure that the process takes a shorter time and that it is less painful for the birthing woman. A lot of doulas and care providers are well acquainted with the use of the rebozo to encourage the baby to shift in a better position for birth.

There is not much concrete research on the rebozo but that a part of the research is able to show that it has a positive psychological effect to the birthing woman in that they are able to see a lot of teamwork with the women who use their rebozo together with her during labor. It is however solidly sure that better fetal positioning helps in reducing the pains of labor and that it also reduces the labor hours.
A lot of efficiency can be found in the use of the rebozo during labor and birth despite the fact that there are not a lot of scientific studies to support this. They use of the rebozo technique however is solely dependent on the individual preferences of the woman giving birth, the care Persons or the doulas, individual narratives amongst many factors. Peer reviewed journals have been published by the World Health Organization signifying that despite the lack of studies in the traditional practices of the rebozo, it should not be an obstacle in the employment and development during birth.
