My husband and I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Emma to prepare for the birth of our first baby. Emma’s classes were both informative and relaxing and we both feel so prepared for a peaceful, natural birth at home, thanks to our HyponoBirthing practice. If you’re interested in HypnoBirthing, I would highly recommend working with Emma.

I couldn’t thank Emma enough for teaching me and my husband the art of Hypnobirthing. Even though I ended up being induced I still used the the Hypnobirthing method and had an incredible natural birth. I couldn’t recommend Emma enough, thank you!

Emma has a warm and intuitive teaching style. She guided me through my pregnancy and helped me overcome my birthing fears and have the most empowering and rewarding birthing experience. I actually enjoyed it. For that I am hugely thankful.
Sarah, Berkhamsted
The environment was positive and welcoming. The hypnobirthing course was informative, educational and provided us with the tools to have at the birth. I feel more knowledgeable and confident and my partner is now more involved in the process. We feel excited for the birth

I just want to say a massive thank you, the hypnobirthing skills you taught us on the course were invaluable during the birth. It gave us so much confidence, the whole experience was calm, anxiety free and positive.
Jessica, Leighton Buzzard
The course was really informative and I learnt so much about birth that I never knew. It was lovely to discuss concerns and other ideas for birth with other couples. I feel a lot calmer and positive about giving birth and more confident that I can handle whatever happens during our birthing experience. I have enjoyed the relaxations so much. I am glad I have plenty of them to listen to before our birthing day.
Amelia, Leighton Buzzard
I did not have any type of pain relief at all and the sensations I had were completely bearable. Iain was also really great, he stayed in control and calm, did the soft touch massage and was generally very soothing. I put my amazing birth experience down to the hypnobirthing lessons and doing the relaxations and birthing affirmations (almost) daily, so thank you for teaching Iain and I the skills we needed to make that happen.
Penny, Rickmansworth
Just to say many thanks. Had it not been for hypnobirthing, I would have not survived! Our baby Eden was born 23rd December and using the hypnobirthing tools saved me! I got to full dilation within 3 hours of the first sign of labour and the breathing literally took the pain away like an anaesthetic would, I was surprised how powerful it was. I cannot emphasise enough the empowerment, confidence, vital knowledge and coping tools that I gained from hypnobirthing. I rarely recommend courses but this is a must for every woman. To be candid I would advise this course is taught to every mother-to-be as standard, simply to equip women with the physical, emotional/mental skills & techniques required to undergo the powerful experience of childbirth; and to access the inner strength required for such a feat!

Visit our ‘What is Hypnobirthing’ page to know more about Hypnobirthing.
The success of hypnobirthing often depends on the amount of practice that you do. The Hypnobirthing Institute states that about 65%-70% of hypnobirthing mothers do not require any kind of pain relief. 20%-25% of hypnobirthing mothers only need something mild, such as gas and air. 5%-10% of hypnobirthing mothers typically go through special conditions requiring medical intervention. 69% of my students (based on a study that I did) did not need any kind of pain relief. And the ones who had special conditions described how the hypnobirthing still really helped them. You can read more about it on my blog.
Without an epidural, mothers can move freely and get into different birth positions. Studies show that epidurals actually extend the birthing time and increase the chances of other medical interventions. It is a fact that the drugs taken by a mother will also affect the baby, and these drugs can also make recovery after childbirth more difficult. With my hypnobirthing classes in Bournemouth, you are more likely to have a drug-free birth as they lessen the requirement for pain relief. A drug-free birthing experience is good for both mother and baby.
You should go for the 4-week course in between the 20th and 30th week of your pregnancy. There is nothing to worry about even if you are later than 30 weeks, as we should still be able to fit the course in for you.
Yes. Self-hypnosis and deep relaxation are learnt skills that require sufficient practice time to be proficient. The 4-week course prepares you and makes you feel relaxed and confident for your birthing day.
Anyone can go for hypnobirthing as it does not have any negative aspects and just prepares mothers for their birth. Any mother who is worried about birth or wants a calmer, easier birth should opt for hypnobirthing. It will make the mother positive about the whole experience and make her feel more relaxed and calm during labour and childbirth. Hypnobirthing techniques are useful for both home births and hospital or birth-centre births.
There is nothing to worry about the hypnosis process as it just allows you to feel relaxed. You are still completely aware of your surroundings. Self-hypnosis should be practised all through the duration of the course and after the course. The hypnobirthing course is much more than merely learning about self-hypnosis; it is the ideal way to prepare yourself for childbirth. Additionally, relaxation techniques can even be helpful after the birth as stress relief.
Hypnobirthing is not at all harmful for your baby. Whenever you are relaxed and calm, your baby will also be relaxed and calm in the womb. Endorphins help the baby to adjust to life outside the womb and make the birth journey more relaxed. Studies show that babies who are born through natural childbirth are more alert and have more interest in breastfeeding behaviours.
