Enjoy safer, easier, more comfortable birthing through guided imagery, visualisation and special breathing techniques.

What is HypnoBirthing?

Would you like a calm, gentle birth? Do you want to give birth feeling confident and positive? HypnoBirthing is a gentle childbirth method which helps prepare you mind and body for a more calm and confident childbirth. HypnoBirthing techniques are easy to learn and apply. Couples learn the techniques together over a series of sessions.

How Does HypnoBirthing Work?

Through classes reinforced by audio and video programs, pregnant women explore deep muscle relaxation, self-hypnosis, visualisation, special breathing techniques and more. These techniques are also taught to birth companions, who learn to help deepen and support the birthing mother's level of relaxation during birthing. By learning techniques to manage any tension caused by fear and anxiety, the birthing mum can feel calm, confident, aware, and in control.
