Do you want to reduce your pregnancy anxiety and birth fears and gain confidence and a mental toolkit, so you can feel empowered to have the most positive birthing experience possible for you?
If you learn hypnobirthing techniques it is more likely you will have a significantly shorter labour, will be more positive, alert and in control and you may find you do not need any pain relief. There is also a much reduced likelihood that you will experience delivery by forceps, ventouse, or caesarean section.
Hypnobirthing is about letting you choose what's best for you so you can have the unique birth YOU want. You don't have to have somebody else's idea of the perfect birth its about empowering you to look forward to the birth without fear.
The established hypnobirthing tools will help if have a vaginal birth, planned or emergency C-section. Even if labour is not straightforward and you find you need some pain relief or require a medical intervention, you will learn how you can still stay calm so you can achieve a positive experience for you and your baby.
Reduce your anxiety, feel calm & relaxed during pregnancy and empowered for birth

Client Feedback
I contacted Jo when I was around 36 weeks pregnant because I was extremely anxious about giving birth. I'm so glad I did. Jo assessed my situation and guided me though hypnobirthing exercises that I used during labour. These were invaluable when the day came. I was able to remain calm and relaxed throughout the labour and birth. The reflexology helped too, it was a lovely way to relax during pregnancy. If you are considering hypnobirthing, definitely go to Jo for her expertise and tangible exercises that will help when the time comes. She will assure you that there is no need to be afraid of childbirth.
This is my second time visiting Jo & she did not disappoint. Jo taught me the skills of Hypnobirthing during my first pregnancy, it kept my anxiety levels in check during my pregnancy & gave me the tools to enable a drug free labour (& that’s not to say that the birth was not without its challenges!!) I got in touch with Jo again for a refresher during my second pregnancy & was a little nervous how this would work across zoom video calls - I needn’t have worried, it was just as effective & she put me at ease very quickly. The recordings Jo creates are personalised & make such a difference to your perspective as you head into the unknown - just make sure you make the time to actually listen to them! Can’t speak highly enough about Jo, would definitely recommend
