Natal Hypnotherapy™ is the UK's award winning and most established (since 2000)approach to hypnosis for birth, a technique also known as hypnobirthing, developed by clinical hypnotherapist, mother of 5 and total birth guru Maggie Howell. Natal Hypnotherapy teaches deep relaxation, effective breathing and practical techniques for releasing fears of birth, having a comfortable pregnancy, feeling confident about birth, enabling an instinctive labour and birth, and managing the sensations of the birth process. As well as giving mothers these tools it also prepares birth partners to be confident, calm and supportive. Natal Hypnotherapy™ differs from other hypnobirthing methods such as the Mongan method or Katherine Graves method as
- it was developed exclusively in the UK, by a clinical hypnotherapist who has personally used the techniques for her own five births
- it has been developed alongside the UK maternity system
- it does not suggest that you should change commonly words such as contraction to surge
- it is very tailored to your birth choices with CDs and workshop material tailored to Hospital/Birth Centre birth, Home Birth, VBAC, Twins, and elective or planned Caesareans.
The training for the in-depth Natal Hypnotherapy workshops is accredited by the Royal College of Midwives and the workshops are run in several NHS trusts. In addition Natal Hypnotherapy is the preferred method of hypnosis for birth by birth professionals, being recommended by over 3000 birth professionals. Natal Hypnotherapy has been awarded the Practical Parenting Pregnancy Product of the Year, and Practical Parenting Editor's Award.
