What is hypnobirthing?

Hypnobirthing is a philosophy and childbirth education method that aims to prepare families for a positive birthing experience.

We want parents to approach labour & birth without fear, and prepared (body & mind). It combines self hypnosis with other practical tools like breathing techniques, massage, acupressure, vocalisation, visualisation and movement

Will I have a pain free birth?

There are some birthing people who would describe their birth experience as “pain-free” but this is not the norm.

However, many hypnobirthers attribute the techniques they learn in this course to feeling more relaxed, and more in control. They are able to relax, release endorphins and work with their bodies. In this way, we see women feeling less fearful (which we know can increase pain!), and empowered to birth.

Who would benefit from a pelvic balancing consultation?

-Women experiencing pain in the pelvis or low back

-Women with a breech or transverse baby on board

-Women with a persistent posterior baby or history of a posterior baby in previous pregnancy & birth

-Women scheduled for an External Cephalic Version (ECV) to turn your baby into a head down position

-Women who had a difficult or traumatic first birth, particularly involving vacuum, forceps or emergency caesarean section

-Women who are 39-40+ weeks, with a baby that has not engaged in the pelvis

-Women who want to optimise their pelvis for a smoother labour & birth!
