Hypnosis for Childbirth Programme

Benefits of using hypnosis during childbirth

Safer, more natural method of childbirth.    
Less analgesic drug required (if any).
A less exhausted mother after birth.
A much less stressed baby.
A calmer birthing experience.

Hypnotherapy can be an excellent way to relax during pregnancy and reduce post natal depression. It can also help to manage pain during the birth.
Hypnosis can be used to help you to take control over your childbirth. It is beneficial before, during and after childbirth. This is a 3 session programme that starts around 32 weeks but if there are other issues related to your pregnancy that you feel can be helped by hypnotherapy then please contact me earlier.

Session 1
The first session, which lasts about 90 minutes, is for you and your partner. We can discuss any concerns you may have about the pregnancy, labour or adjusting to parenthood. During this session, I guide you both into hypnosis. This session is about general relaxation, increasing positivity and self-esteem, and perhaps a little way towards creating strong feelings towards the birthing event. If your partner has any phobias or anxieties about the birth, then a separate session may be advisable.

Session 2
The second session, for 60 minutes is used to allay any fears or anxieties about the hospital environment, needles or any specific problems, such as reducing hypertension. The session is also used to teach self-hypnosis, techniques to reduce discomfort and to practise anaesthesia.

Session 3
The third session, which is also for 60 minutes, is the pre-childbirth session, using visual and kinaesthetic values for a happy event.

If there are any phobias or particular issues that are not addressed by these 3 sessions then you may want an additional session or two (that may take place before the other 3 or after them, depending on which is most appropriate).

There are several CDs for you to listen to up to, during and after the birth to enhance your experience of childbirth. It is important to keep looking after yourself after the birth so you are encouraged to listen to the relaxation CD for a week or so after the birth. Hypnotherapy has been found to be beneficial in the reduction of post natal depression.

The cost is £30 for the initial 90 minute session and £30 per each 1 hour session. You will also receive 4 free CDs - a relaxation CD, a pre-childbirth CD and 2 CDs for the birth.
If you or your partner wants any additional sessions they would be £30 per 1 hour session.

IMPORTANT:No therapy can give you a 100% guarantee of a cure. Whilst clinical hypnotherapy is very safe, if you suffer from epilepsy, or are undergoing psychiatric treatment, then you should obtain a letter from your doctor to confirm that you may have hypnotherapy.
