HypnoBirthing®

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 has a high Agpar score

The HypnoBirthing® Course

The HypnoBirthing® course is usually taught over 4 or 5 sessions each lasting 2.5 to 3 hours. A good time to start a course is from around 26 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 – get in touch and we can discuss a modified course to suit your needs. 
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

Why you should attend a Baby Coach course

The number of clients that we take at any time is limited in order to be able to provide a personal quality service. Courses are taught by Andrea who has a good knowledge of hypnotherapy, coaching, massage and complimentary therapies. She has also had one HypnoBirthing baby in hospital and plans to have her second baby at home later this year using HypnoBirthing. You are always welcome to contact us if you have any questions, we are very approachable and friendly! As we also run courses in baby massage, yoga and coaching you can get to know other couples on the course and then catch up with them again with your baby!

Private Courses - £325

Many couples prefer to take a HypnoBirthing® course at their own convenience at a time and location to suit them (usually their own home). The main benefit of this approach is that you are the only focus of the class, you have total undivided attention throughout the course and we can tailor the course around your needs. Another huge benefit is that it gives you total flexibility with dates and times – there is no need to stick to a fixed schedule and it allows you to plan the course around your own diary.

Group Classes - £225

(2 - 4 couples per class)
Classes usually take place on a weekday evening or occasionaly at weekends. The course will run over 4 or 5 weekly classes and refreshments are included. Learning in a class gives you the benefit of meeting other couples and sharing from each others learning experiences through group discussion.
If you are interested in a group class please look at the course schedule or get in touch and I can schedule a class at a suitable time and venue.
