Hypnosis for Pregnancy and Birthing

Did you know that hypnosis can reduce stress and pain associated with birthing? In fact, hypnosis was originally used for pain control before the development of anesthesia. And now, it's a proven method to help expectant mothers to prepare for birthing!

Using hypnosis during pregnancy can help you to have a quicker, more comfortable birthing experience, and offer benefits like reducing the need for pain medication, staying conscious and involved during birthing, and aiding in recovery. Plus, it can help with a variety of issues such as morning sickness, bonding with the baby, addressing fears, and developing tools for relaxation.

Women who use hypnosis for birthing tend to have calmer and healthier babies. It can also be used to address postpartum depression and aid in nursing.

Feedback from a Birthing Client:

“Thank you Jennifer for a calm and empowered birthing experience. 

Jennifer’s communication during sessions is soothing and authentic, and I felt comfortable and supported throughout our time together.  Her explanations and conversations about what being in hypnosis really is made me feel more at ease. I also appreciated that Jennifer customized our sessions based on what we talked about, which made our time together feel therapeutic. Her relaxed and genuine approach made it easy for me to relax and feel safe during our sessions.

Before working with Jennifer, I was intimidated by the idea of giving birth without interventions. However, because of our work together developing the tools to mentally overcome my fears I was able to tap into a calm and focused state during the birthing experience, which helped me to have an intervention-free birth. It was an incredibly empowering experience. The techniques we worked on together helped me find my way to feeling relaxed and calm more easily, which not only helped during labour but it has been invaluable in my everyday life, including helping me manage postpartum anxiety. 

I could feel that Jennifer truly cares about her clients and their birthing experiences. She took the time to get to know me and understand what I was hoping to achieve, and it was clear that she prepared our sessions based on my specific needs. Her approach is warm and nurturing, and reassuring.  I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to have a calm, positive and empowering birth experience.
