Natal hypnotherapy is becoming more recognised and valued as an effective tool to help normalise birth.
As more and more women are using these techniques, it is important for midwives to have a better understanding of Natal Hypnotherapy in order for them to support the women in the most effective way possible.
Natal hypnotherapy recognizes the importance of providing training to midwives, and so have planned a series of introductory study days to the techniques and benefits of Hypnotherapy for pregnancy and birth.
“This was one of the best study days I have attended – It should be compulsory for all student midwives!” Jane W, Manchester
“It was so great to come away feeling motivated and inspired - all I see is intervention and medicalised births” Maria, London
“I will definitely use the techniques as soon as I get back to labour ward” Helena, Birmingham
By attending the study day you will learn effective techniques to:-
- Help women reduce fear
- Enable women to be more confident
- Make the words you use have a more positive effect
- Relax and calm women before and during labour
- Increase normal birth outcomes
The study day will cover:-
- An introduction to Natal Hypnotherapy
- An overview of hypnosis
- The impact of fear on the physiology of birth
- The fear - tension - pain cycle and how to break it
- The power of language and its effect on a pregnant woman
- Effective use of language in the birthing room
- Relaxation and visualisation techniques
- Key factors in supporting women who use Natal Hypnotherapy
Please note that Natal Hypnotherapy is NOT the same as HypnoBirthing which is a very specific approach to hypnotherapy for birth created in the US. The Natal Hypnotherapy approach has been developed in the UK alongside the UK maternity system and does NOT advocate pain free labour or the need to use different words during labour. In the UK over 25,000 women have benefited from using the techniques and over 2000 midwives recommend the techniques to women.
