Mind-body interventions on stress management in pregnant women: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Mind-body interventions have been widely implemented to ameliorate antenatal stress, but conflicting results were found across studies. This systematic review and meta-analysis suggested that mind-body interventions are relatively safe and convenient and can successfully promote antenatal stress. The suggestions proposed in this review may be useful for developing a scientific mind-body interventions regimen and encouraging the application of mind-body interventions in pregnant women, thereby managing antenatal stress effectively.
