Birth preparation antenatal workshops
The 2 stand alone antenatal workshops teach you a wide range of techniques for pregnancy and childbirth, including learning easy and effective natural pain management skills including hypnosis for birth, breathing and relaxation plus practical birth preparation such as understanding the simplicity of birth physiology, the emotional map of birth, massage and teaching you the best ways to work with the medical team. The hypnosis skills you learn are a skill for life and can be used to help you in all areas of life!
Workshops can be taken at any time during your pregnancy and can be taken together or at different times to suit your diary.
As one mum said "This course reaches the parts that other antenatal courses fail to reach!"
How does Natal Hypnotherapy compare with other birth preparation?
Preparing with Natal Hypnotherapy™ really teaches women how to focus and prepare for a positive pregnancy and birth, regardless of where or how they give birth. The workshops are an excellent complement to other antenatal classes, espeically the natural pain managmenet workshop which covers techniques that most other courses do not teach.
Is Natal Hypnotherapy the same as HypnoBirthing?
Natal Hypnotherapy™ is not the same as Hypnobirthing. HypnoBirthing is the name of a one particular approach to Hypnosis for birth and is a US registered name for the Marie Mongan approach. It is one of several approaches to the use of hypnosis for birth.
Natal Hypnotherapy™ was created by Maggie Howell and is the UK's leading approach to Hypnosis for conception, pregnancy and childbirth. Since starting in 2000 Natal Hypnotherapy™ has helped over 25,000 women in the UK and reached women in over 50 countries! According to the HypnoBirthing website, they have reasched 10,000 women worldwide over the last 20 years, so more than double the number of women have chosen to follow the Natal Hypnotherapy approach.
However, to help choose the appropriate birth preparation method you can see the comparison of the two approaches by clicking here. It is also beneficial to compare birth outcomes. The table below shows the c-section rates for women who have used the 2 leading hypnotherapy for birth programmes, compared with the national c-section rate.
