What Do Hypnobirthing Sessions for a Caesarean Birth offer you?

The HypnoBirthing method for Caesarean birth also teaches the techniques of relaxation, visualisation and breathing to prepare your mind and body for a calm, positive, caesarean birth.

Learn how to address situations that may cause fear, and alleviate any reactions relating to medical procedures and/or surgical environments that can cause anxiety levels to rise.

HypnoBirthing teaches you how to re- programme your mind regarding any negative thoughts about the birth, and how to let go of tension and release endorphins (your body’s own natural anaesthesia) to help you achieve a more positive birth experience.

Your birth companion learns how to assist you to stay calm and focused before and during the birth.

Deep relaxation has been shown to lower stress and anxiety and the perception of pain. It also reduces the length of recovery in caesarean births and reduces the dosage level of post-surgery
medication.

Approach your caesarean birth feeling positive, stress-free, prepared and empowered.

The mother-to-be is also shown how to manage her own health and well-being during her pregnancy with:

• Nutrition
• Exercise
• Homoeopathy
• Bach Flower remedies
• Massage
• Relaxation
• Aromatherapy
