When you have devoted nine months to nurturing your baby, it is only natural to want the best birth experience for your little one. HypnoBirthing® is a childbirth education class developed by astute Clinical Hypnotherapist, Marie Mongan, to enable you to achieve precisely this goal.
HypnoBirthing® provides couples with a very thorough understanding of natural birthing and combines this with the practical application of deep relaxation skills in the form of hypnosis, special breathing techniques and massage.
Expectant mothers flourish with a real sense of calm and positive anticipation about the birth and fathers feel much more confident and skilled as they prepare to support their partners at this important time.
HypnoBirthing® is taught over a series of classes combining theory with plenty of time for practicing the skills taught in session. You will learn how to avoid the Fear-Tension-Pain syndrome commonly associated with labour, how to eliminate or significantly reduce your need for traditional pain management and understand how you can shorten your first stage labour by several hours.
You will also understand how you will feel more energised and comfortable after the birth and why HypnoBirthing® babies are notably much calmer, sleep better and bond more easily.
One of the central themes of the course is learning how to activate your own natural anaesthesia and how to work with your body rather than against it to birth your baby more comfortably.
HypnoBirthing® classes really are an eye-opener whether you are first timers or looking to enjoy a much better birth experience second time around. They are also very enjoyable.
Joanne is a very experienced and down-to-earth teacher who ensures that the superb toolkit at the heart of HypnoBirthing®, is tailored to meet your needs as a couple, ensuring that you approach your big day fully prepared and able to give your baby the best possible arrival into the world.
Classes are kept small and do book up quickly, so please keep in mind dates that coincide around your twentieth week of pregnancy which is an ideal time to join a class.
