What are the Hypnobirthing techniques?

Techniques are all encompassing, ranging from creating a birth proposal unique for your journey, breathing techniques for the 'up' and 'down' stage of labour, creating your birthing environment, light touch massage and triggers for relaxation, relaxations read & practiced from special scripts used to activate a calm response in mum and teaching empowerment so that you can make confident, well informed decisions about  your pregnancy, your birth and your care.

Contemporary women in our culture hold an unprecedented fear of giving birth, too often associating it with excruciating pain, thereby causing their bodies to become unable to perform what should be a normal physiological function. HypnoBirthing is a unique method of relaxed, natural childbirth education enhanced by self‑hypnosis and guided imagery techniques that allow women to use their natural abilities to bring about safer, easier, and more comfortable birthing.

HypnoBirthing techniques teach woman how to release all prior programming about birth to free herself of limiting thoughts and emotions that lead to pain-causing fear and resistant muscles. When giving birth with HypnoBirthing, a mother is not in a trance or asleep but instead in a state of deep relaxation-awake, aware, and fully in control.
