SERVICES
Welcome to Hypnobirthing AustraliaHypnoBirthing Australia provides natural childbirth classes and private courses to mothers-to-be and their birth companions. Classes are based on the Gold Coast, Brisbane, and Byron Bay (Northern NSW).
Melissa Spilsted (as seen in ‘Mother and Baby Magazine’) – is your fully accredited HypnoBirthing® Practitioner. Melissa is Australia’s only Practitioner who has successfully used the technique for three of her own births and is a fully registered teacher – giving you the complete advantage in your HypnoBirth Course training.
HypnoBirthing® HypnoBirthing® - The Mongan Method, is a unique and comprehensive antenatal education program that uses deep relaxation, self hypnosis and specific breathing techniques for a safer, easier and gentle birth. The technique is used widely in both the USA and UK and it is now gaining popularity in Australia as the only way to birth naturally!
Childbirth is not something to be feared; it is a natural expression of life. With HypnoBirthing, your pregnancy and childbirth will become the gentle, life-affirming process it was meant to be.
Through private or small group classes, we will remove the myth of pain as a natural accompaniment to birth. It is not our bodies but our culture that has made childbirth a moment of anguish, and when we release the fear of birth, a fear that is keeping our bodies tense and closed, we will also release the pain.
HypnoBirthing is nature, not manipulation. It relaxes the mind in order to let the body work as it is designed. The HypnoBirthing exercises - positive thinking, relaxation, visualisation, breathing and physical preparation - will lead to a happy and comfortable pregnancy, even if you are currently unsure of an intervention-free birth. Your confidence, trust and happy anticipation will in turn lead to the peaceful, fulfilling and bonding birth that is your right as a mother.

This is what she says…
“When pregnant with my first child, I must admit that I was quite fearful of the perceived ‘pain’ associated with labour and childbirth – everyone I met seemed to have a horror story to tell. When my husband and I attended antenatal classes they passed an epidural needle around the group - it was HUGE. I then read up on the different drugs offered during labour and was horrified to learn about the documented side effects for both mother and baby – not to mention the unknown ones.
I decided that there had to be another way. Women had been giving birth since the beginning of time – our bodies are so remarkably complex and well designed – I found it hard to believe that the childbirth process was so flawed! That is when I lucked upon HypnoBirthing®.
I was a bit skeptical at first, but thought I would give it a go - with only three weeks to go before my due date, my husband and I attended HypnoBirthing sessions. Thank goodness we did! There is no way that my births would have been so beautiful, smooth and calm without using the techniques of Hypnobirthing®.
I believe so strongly in the positive outcomes of using this method that I am now teaching it to others. It’s time for women to take back their power of the right to birth the way they want to, and this is absolutely possible with HypnoBirthing®. My dream is that all babies enter this world in a beautiful, calm and drug-free environment – the way nature intended."
