What is Hypnobirthing?
The Hypnobirthing Australia™ philosophy is centred around the knowledge that birth is a normal, natural physiological function of the body. Just as the body knows how to conceive, grow & nurture a baby during pregnancy, it instinctively knows how to birth. We understand natural birth has short & long term advantages for mother and child, however we also respect that sometimes special circumstances do arise. Our focus is on creating a POSITIVE experience where you can look back on the day with joy in your heart, regardless of how your baby comes into the world.
​
Contrary to the name, it's not all about hypnosis! Hypnosis is just one technique used to create deep relaxation, to let go of fears & condition the body to release pain relieving endorphins during childbirth. The Hypnobirthing Australia™ programs are as much about mindset as they are about birthing wisdom & techniques.

You'll learn everything you'd expect from other birth education programs plus so much more.
