What is HypnoBirthing?
HypnoBirthing is a complete birth education programme, which teaches simple but specific relaxation and breathing techniques for a better birth. Rather than seeing labour as something to fear, it helps you and your birth partner feel calm, prepared and in control on the big day.
The programme gives you practical tools to relax your body, quieten your mind and work naturally with each stage of labour. It is suitable for first time parents and those who have given birth before, and it welcomes families from Buckshaw Village, Chorley, Leyland, Euxton, Preston and Whittle-le-Woods.
What you will learn
Over the course you will build a toolkit of techniques you can use throughout your pregnancy and birth:
- Simple, specific relaxation and breathing techniques for a calmer birth
- Natural approaches to labour that work with your body
- How to create a calm, comfortable birthing environment
- Gentle birthing techniques that let you breathe your baby into the world
