London Hypnobirthing with Alexa Dean
Childbirth can be an empowering experience that you will treasure for the rest of your life.
Benefits of Hypnobirthing for mums-to-be:
- Release fear, tension and pain – which lead to interventions
- Self hypnosis to induce deep relaxation
- Massage techniques to release endorphins, your body’s natural anaesthetic
- Visualisation exercises and affirmations to keep you grounded, serene and positive
- Your increased knowledge and awareness put you in control
- You are more likely to experience a natural, calm, drug free and comfortable birth – labour can be shorter and more comfortable
- In many cases you will need no pain relief throughout the whole empowering experience
- Reduced need of episiotomy and eliminated fatique during labour
- HypnoBirthing can be used for induction or caesarean section
- Postnatal recovery is much faster
- Lower risk of postnatal depression
- HypnoBirthing can be used at home, the birth centre or hospital
For fathers-to-be, hypnobirthing can offer many benefits:
– Helps them to understand the process of labour and delivery
– Gives them an essential, active role in the birth of their baby or as the birth companion
– Enables them to make informed decisions about their baby’s birth or to act as an advocate for the labouring mother
– Encourages them to bond with their baby before he or she is born
– Creates a positive mind-set to becoming parents
– Gives them the tools they need to relax and empower your partner as she gives birth
Hypnobirthing is good for the baby leading to:
A calm, drug-free birth which leaves the baby relaxed and alert
This calm birth can help your baby to:
– Feed well
– Sleep well
– Develop and thrive quicker
– Feel content
Hypnobirthing cannot promise you the perfect birth, no one can, but it can allow you to have a much more positive, comfortable and relaxed birth. The techniques are for all mums whether birthing at home, a birth centre or in hospital having normal or more complex births. It’s a birth preparation course in itself.
This article from Karen Baker explains how midwives can help women who have opted for this technique to have the type of birth they want.
