 Hypnobirthing, London, UK
Hypnobirthing is a childbirth preparation programme that teaches simple but specific self hypnosis, relaxation, and visualisation techniques for a better birth. It is a way of training the mother to overcome the physical, mental and emotional obstacles to a successful and pain-free childbirth experience. Several techniques are used which incorporate learning self-hypnosis for deep relaxation, focusing on the positive aspects of childbirth, and creating a natural anaesthesia. The advantages are fantastic for before AND after childbirth because you can use the skills for the rest of your life. Hypnobirthing doesn't mean you'll be in a trance or a sleep. Rather, you'll be able to talk, move, have your eyes open but be relaxed and in control. Research has shown that 65% to 70% of Hypnobirths are drug-free, have lower incidence of pelvic floor damage, and infants with higher average Apgar scores. |
