HypnoBirthing is a birthing method that uses various relaxation techniques and self-hypnosis to help women feel physically, mentally and spiritually prepared for labour and birth.
Breathing exercises have long been part of antenatal classes, however HypnoBirthing takes this to another level with visualisation, relaxation and mindfulness techniques to help the mother concentrate on her body and the birth of the child. HypnoBirthing teaches you that, in the absence of fear and anxiety, pain will not be as severe and can be managed quite successfully. Most importantly, women are fully educated with all available birthing techniques and pain control options, so they can make an informed choice that is right for them. HypnoBirthing can be used with all other types of pain relief and be added to your birth plan.
HypnoBirthing is an evidence based 5 week childbirth education program that teaches you and your birth partner everything you need to know to navigate pregnancy, birth and beyond with confidence. We help you release the fears you have around birthing and parenting, help you trust your body, and give you proven tools and techniques to birth in a calmer, more comfortable way so that you can birth just the way you want to and feel incredibly positive and proud about it! Each course runs for five 2.5 hours sessions over 5 weeks. We are flexible and there are options for private classes to meet your schedule.
