Learning to use the tool of self-hypnosis during childbirth provides a more natural birth by giving you a remarkable degree of control over your mind and body. This reduces the levels of anxiety whilst in labour, creating a calmer experience and a less stressed baby. During your sessions with me we can work together to reduce any other symptoms such as back pain, headaches and insomnia. 

Childbirth is a natural process but in our Western society, women no longer rely on instinct or listen to their bodies to experience childbirth; instead they often approach labour with fear and anxiety made worse by all the stories they have heard from various sources. Every pregnant woman needs to understand the mechanics of labour and delivery so that she can appreciate what is happening to her body during childbirth. With the backing of 30 years of medical experience and as a mother of two, you can be reassured of my knowledge and understanding of all the processes involved.

Hypnosis for Childbirth Fees

Introductory consultation is free.

3 to 4 sessions at £50 per session - fees include all CDs.

Fees are paid at each session.

Advantages of using Hypnosis during childbirth:

• Reduces labour time 
• Less Analgesic drugs required (if any) 
• A less exhausted mother after birth 
• Less stress for your baby

Hypnosis Session

3 or 4 sessions are required (not including the free initial consultation). I like to see the husband or partner once during this time. This is to establish from both, the needs and expectations during birth and to give the opportunity for the partner to experience hypnosis. Most of the therapy is continued with the use of my CDs which are to be regularly listened to at home by the mother to be. Regular practise prepares your subconscious mind for the birth and allows you to switch on the techniques with minimum effort

Hypnosis does not cure anything

When should I book an appointment

The first free consultation is normally about 32 weeks of your pregnancy. I will explain what each session will comprise of and how the CDs are incorporated into the programme.
