What is Hypnobirthing?
Providing the necessary knowledge and tools for you to have a positive child birth
A Hypnobirthing course offers parents the opportunity to learn about pregnancy, labour and birth in depth and provides them with the real facts and realities of childbirth. Classes aim to alleviate any pre-existing fears with information and encourage couples to view birth as a positive and empowering experience.
The main ethos of Hypnobirthing is fundamentally learning how to relax using different methods such as breathing and massage techniques, listening to relaxation scripts and visualisation of positive images. The classes are about empowering women to trust their instincts and their bodies.
Emma brings together all her midwifery experience and qualifications to ensure a comprehensive course that will leave participants feeling calm and confident, prepared for birth, free from fear and anxiety.
Her 4 week course includes all essential materials; an accompanying course folder, a Hypnobirthing textbook and 14 audio relaxation tracks. Classes also give participants the chance to chat with other expectant parents, make new friends and ask questions within a safe environment.
The ideal time to start a Hypnobirthing Course is between 20-33 weeks of pregnancy, although classes can be taken at any time to suit individual preferences.
