What is hypnobirthing?

Hypnobirthing is a birth education method that focuses on using self-hypnosis, relaxation techniques, and education about the birthing process to promote a positive and calm birthing experience. The goal of hypnobirthing is to reduce fear and tension so you can feel connected and confident in your pregnancy and birth.

Why is it important?

It aims to provide a positive and empowering birthing experience. Fear and anxiety can contribute to the intensity of labour sensations and potentially lead to complications. By using hypnosis and relaxation techniques, the aim is to release deep rooted fear and tension, allowing your body to birth your baby in the way you want and need.

Hypnobirthing gives you the tools to have a positive birth experience, however you birth your baby.

Who is it for?

Hypnobirthing is for expectant parents who are seeking a positive and empowering birthing experience and are interested in using relaxation techniques, self-hypnosis, and education to enhance their birthing experience.

It may be particularly appealing to those who wish to minimize fear, tension, and pain associated with childbirth and prefer a more natural and calm approach. However, hypnobirthing principles can have a huge positive impact on all birth experiences; even ones where things haven’t gone “to plan”.

How Hypnobirthing Works

Hypnobirthing is rooted in the mind-body connection (which is improved by acknowledging and processing our own individual preconceptions about and fears of childbirth), positive thinking, and natural approaches to childbirth. The goal of hypnobirthing is to empower individuals with knowledge and tools to reduce fear and tension during labor, promoting a more relaxed and positive birthing experience.

What hypnobirthing can do:

  • Reduce stress and Pain Perception: Scientifically, there is evidence that stress reduction techniques, including relaxation and positive visualisation, can influence the perception of pain. Hypnobirthing incorporates such techniques to create a calm and relaxed state during labour.

  • Mind-Body Connection: The mind-body connection is strong. This quote sums it up so brilliantly: “The Body achieves what The Mind Believes”. Hypnobirthing is this concept; that a positive mindset can effect the physiological unfolding of birth.

  • Endorphin Release: Relaxation and positive emotions can trigger the release of endorphins, the body's natural pain relievers. Hypnobirthing aims to stimulate the release of endorphins to manage pain during labour.

  • Reduced Medication Use: Some studies suggest that practicing hypnobirthing may lead to fewer pain medications during labour, and reduce interventions
