HypnoBirthing® is a tried and trusted childbirth method for you to achieve a satisfying, relaxing, stress free and natural birth. You and your birthing partner will learn how to properly prepare for childbirth by using your body’s own natural relaxant thus lessening or eliminating discomfort and the need for medication.

You will learn how to release your prior programming about birth and how to trust and work with your body to follow your own natural birthing instincts. You will be in full control and fully aware whilst being extremely relaxed.

Typically those who use HypnoBirthing® also benefit from:

• A reduced risk to a ‘managed labour’ (induction, medication, C-section)
• A reduced risk of tearing or the need for an episiotomy
• A shorter labour and birth
• A positive birth experience for you, your birth partner and your new baby
• A calmer baby who feeds well, sleeps well and is relaxed

The HypnoBirthing® Course

The HypnoBirthing® course will be taught over 4 sessions each lasting approx 2.5 hours. A good time to start a course is anytime from around 20 weeks onwards. You’ll need to spend time practicing the relaxation and breathing techniques that you learn so the more time you have the better! Although don’t worry if you’re getting close to your birth. If you cannot start a course before 35 weeks then get in touch and we can discuss a modified course to suit your needs. 

As you approach your birthing date you use the refresher materials that recap everything you'll need during the birth and you can access support via telephone or email any questions you might have. This is included in the price of the course.

The course includes:

• How the mind and emotions affect the body
• Why labour hurts and why it doesn’t have to
• Releasing fear, the enemy on labour
• Preparing your mind and body for birthing
• Avoiding artificial induction and episiotomy
• Developing ultimate-depth relaxation
• Understanding the stages of labour
• Preparing your birth plan
• Tapping nature’s own relaxant
• Breathing your baby down for birth
