Research Methods: In this study it was experimental (quasi-experimental) with a control group design and an experimental group with a quantitative approach. Sampling in this study was a total sampling of 15 people. The sample technique used was accidental sampling. Research results: between using the rebozo and effleurage techniques before and after the mean rank was 8.00 and the sum rank was 120.00. A value of 15 means that this result indicates a decrease (reduction) from the value before and after meaning that all respondents who experienced contraction pain during labor had a reduction in contraction pain using rebozo and effleurage so that it was concluded that there was a significant difference in the pain scale of contractions before and after the rebozo technique was carried out and effleurage, thus it can be concluded that the rebozo and effleurage techniques are effective in reducing contraction pain or in other words, there is effectiveness of the rebozo and effleurage techniques in reducing contraction pain during labor.
