Easibirthing® Hypnobirthing in Hull, East Yorkshire

Hypnobirthing

Hypnobirthing sessions prepare you for a calm, confident labour and birth.   

Hypnobirthing techniques used during labour, switch off the stress response and enable the production of oxytocin.  As a result, labour can progress more easily and efficiently.  Hypnobirthing increases confidence in women, so that they have the ability to cope during labour. 

What is The Easibirthing® Method?

The easibirthing® method was created by Sharon Mustard in conjunction with midwives and uses a combination of techniques such as self hypnosis, relaxation, visualisation and breathing techniques, to help prepare your mind and body, for a calm, more comfortable, confident labour and birth.  

As a certified easibirthing® childbirth specialist, I will help you to reduce the fear you have about childbirth and help you to increase your confidence in your ability to cope during labour. I will help you to develop a positive, confident mindset for labour and birth.  Having used hypnobirthing techniques myself for the labour and birth of my 3rd child, I have valuable experience and knowledge, that I can share with YOU.  It is my mission to help you feel confidently calm during pregnancy, birth and beyond.
