Hypnobirthing Classes in
Sandbach & Cheshire
If you are looking for hypnobirthing classes that are built around your needs, supports and empowers you and your birth partner and will transform they way you think and feel about your birth in a positive,
no-nonsense way, my courses are for you.
What is Hypnobirthing?
Let's start with what it's not!
Hypnobirthing is not swinging pocket watches or dancing in the light of the moon - there is no weird stuff at all.
It also isn't a type of birth or something you achieve, nor is it only useful for home births or unmedicated births.
So what is hypnobirthing?
It is a logical and complete birth preparation course - from the first signs of labour to birthing the placenta - hypnobirthing is packed full of up-to-date, evidence-based research and information, as well as a wealth of knowledge that is an absolute game changer for pregnancy and birth.
Hypnobirthing classes equip you with a complete "toolbox" of practical tools and techniques which will change the way you perceive birth in a positive way.
I will teach you how to reframe fears or anxieties, manage contractions and pain and helps support you if you experience a change of plan or a procedure during pregnancy or birth through the skill of self-hypnosis.
"A systematic review of hypnosis-based interventions during pregnancy found that it improved childbirth experience by reducing fear and pain and enhancing a sense of control."

Birth Partners
You may be a bit sceptical of a hypnobirthing course, but it's as much for you as it is your partner. Did you know some of the hypnobirthing tools I teach are used in sports psychology, such as football, rugby and motorsports?
Why is the role of the birth partner important?
In my hypnobirthing classes, I teach birth partners how to protect the birth space and advocate on their partner's behalf during labour.
I guide the birth partner on how best to help their partner use her hypnobirthing tools and techniques throughout pregnancy and how to gently remind and support her with them during birth.
I want birth partners feeling confident and empowered too, so you feel prepared to support your partner during pregnancy and birth. Birth partners are very much a part of my hypnobirthing classes.
This is your birth experience too and your role is so important - you are protector of the birth space.
"Research has shown clinically meaningful benefits of the support, including shorter duration of labour, increased rates of spontaneous vaginal birth, decreased caesarean section and intrapartum analgesia, and increased satisfaction with childbirth experiences."
