Western science is extremely useful in mechanical type of interventions such as emergency c-sections. It is well known that the intervention first approach is not the ideal, and we have been in a 50 year journey away from it. The term 'cascade of interventions' is extremely descriptive of this phenomenon, and I've seen it first hand. Yes, it's getting better now since the last 50 years, yes, it's great that science can come in with extremely precise machinery, and yes there is a tendency to over rely on the machinery by people in the field. I'm not a science denier or anything, just saying that doing more natural approaches to childbirth shouldn't be as vilified as it is now, given that we do have millenia of practice with that practice.
