Hypnobirthing is a childbirth education method that focuses on using relaxation techniques, deep breathing, visualization, and self-hypnosis to reduce fear and tension during labor. It aims to help mothers experience childbirth in a calm and positive way, often with less pain or intervention.
Hypnobirthing works by teaching expectant mothers how to relax deeply and let go of fear and anxiety surrounding childbirth. This helps to reduce the body’s stress response, which can increase pain, and encourages the release of endorphins, the body's natural painkillers. Education on the history of birthing and knowledge of the normal Phsyological process of childbirth can help mothers to release the anxiety attached to it.
Hypnosis is safe during pregnancy, we naturally go into trance states numerous times during the day and in our REM cycles during sleep. It is a very natural state that we replicate during Hypnosis sessions.
The Easibirthing® method, developed in collaboration with UK midwives by Sharon Mustard, is a structured hypnobirthing approach designed specifically for trained Hypnotherapists. It focuses on helping women reduce fear, manage pain, and build trust in their body’s natural birthing ability.
Yes! Your partner or any support person (such as a doula or friend) can play an important role in Hypnobirthing. They can help guide you through the relaxation exercises, provide support during labor, and create a calm environment by encouraging you to stay focused on your breathing and relaxation.
Absolutely, Hypnobirthing is for pregnancy and beyond. The techniques you learn in sessions with equip you with valuable tools to use in your transition to positive parenthood.
"My situation before seeing you was that I felt anxious and a bit lost. I had a few family problems that affected me. The sessions helped me focus on the positive more and not sweat the small stuff. It made me think about how I take on too much of what I think is negative thoughts even though it’s not that bad at times."

"Our session took place over zoom & was very professional. Mel is lovely, so friendly & made me feel very relaxed. She explained everything to me prior to the trance, I was so relaxed i think i even snored at one point! I can now say how proud of myself I am & so grateful to Mel. I do not smoke, my life is now richer in so many ways & hopefully will be a longer life! I'm now in control of my life rather than being controlled by the cigarettes."
