Relaxation For Birth 2

Congratulations on your pregnancy, and for taking the first steps towards preparing for a positive, gentle birth for your baby. I offer the Wise Hippo Birthing Programme, an amazing, fun and effective way to learn the skills you and your partner need for birth. I also offer acupuncture which is a safe and relaxing treatment for some of the common symptoms of pregnancy.

A little about me........I am an experienced midwife with a passion for supporting women and their partners in developing their understanding of what happens during birth, and for teaching proven relaxation techniques that will allow your body to calmly birth your baby in the way that is right for you both on the day.

I am a mum of three, and experienced three beautiful births, the second two in water at home using self hypnosis techniques. Having also supported many hypnobirthing women and couples through their labour and birth and seen firsthand what a difference it made to their experiences, I trained as HypnoBirthing Practitioner in 2009.

I am now delighted to offer The Wise Hippo Birthing Programme, which I believe offers the best combination of self-hypnosis, relaxation techniques and birth education. The programme consists of four sessions, each 2.5hrs long, and includes a work book and mp3s for you to practice at home.

I also offer the Relax, Breathe & Birth Course - a one off session that will give you some good techniques to use during labour, and give you a taste of what the full course can offer you.

I can now also offer additional hypnosis sessions for women planning induction of labour, caesarean section, vaginal birth after caesarean and breech birth. Please ask for more details.
