Hypnobirthing
Hypnobirthing is the use of self-hypnosis techniques to help a woman to feel calm, confident, comfortable and in control during labour and birth. This, in turn, helps the hormones of birth to flow, and birth to proceed optimally.
I am happy to incorporate hypnobirthing into my doula preparation sessions with you.
