Hypnotherapy is not only for those who want a complete drug free natural birth, but for those who want to manage the pain to a certain point, use the power of the mind to control their muscles and body during labour?as well as speeding up their bodies recovery time post birth. Confidence along with relaxation techniques placed into your unconscious mind can help change the entire birthing experience.
Many studies have shown how hypnosis is effective in the management of pain during childbirth. Hypnosis can induce local anesthesia that doesn't interfere with the mechanics of birth.
Self hypnosis is taught in most hypnotherapy sessions, however , it is essential for hypnobirthing. The therapy also consists of experiencing prebirth, birth and post birth experiences through visualization and using panic control?methods. I also deal with any concerns or anxieties regarding the entire process. If possible the birth partner should attend the sessions to be taught how to cue a relaxation/trance state.

Hypnotherapy is a wonderful tool for post birth recovery and healing from not only physical and chemical changes but for the emotional adjustments mum has to make for her new role. The same techniques for pain control work brilliantly for any problems that may occur during breast feeding.
