Hypnobirthing
Most women approach birth with the expectation and belief that it will be a painful, traumatic ordeal. It's as if it's a competition to see who has the worst birth.
It doesn't have to be this way! Fifty years ago surgical extraction of the baby was so infrequent that it was regarded with surprise. And many women, particularly in other cultures, are able to have gentle comfortable births.
HypnoBirthing teaches parents-to-be that giving birth is normal, natural and healthy, and that they can give birth to their babies safely, without drugs and with a minimum of discomfort.
HypnoBirthing is not intended to replace the advice or care of your health care provider, but works in complete harmony with supportive doctors, nurses, and midwives. Once a woman understands that there is no pathological reason for pain in childbirth they are ready to learn self-hypnosis to bring themselves into a profound state of relaxation that allows their bodies to function in the way nature intended.
One of the main aims of HypnoBirthing is actually de-hypnotizing: to help parents rid themselves of the myths and misconceptions that surround the birth process. Christian Baker is a Certified HypnoBirthing practitioner and affiliate of the HypnoBirthing® Institute. He can teach you to relax, to release your fears, and to use the remarkable power of your mind to imagine and create the image of positive, gentle birthing. The process is so simple it is almost unbelievable!
HypnoBirthing® is an informal but informative childbirth Education Class like no other. It is rewarding, relaxing and stress-free. It teaches you and your partner how you can confidently approach the birth of your baby in an easier, more comfortable manner that mostly mirrors nature. Whether you choose to have your birth in a hospital or at home, you will be confidently prepared and able to use the techniques you will learn and practise.
The techniques do not require Christian to attend the birth. The programme is designed for you and your partner to attend the classes and to practise the techniques and exercises together. This means that Dad-to-be/birth companion will play a vital role during pregnancy and during the birth. Imagine how close that makes them feel to both mother and baby!
If you would like to know more about how HypnoBirthing can make the arrival of your child an even more pleasant experience call us now and we will arrange for Christian to contact you in person with details of how the programme works and dates of forthcoming classes
