HypnoBirthing
HypnoBirthing® the Mongan Method is a rewarding, relaxing, stress free method  of birthing that is based on the belief that all babies should come into the world in an atmosphere of calm, and joy.  This program teaches the mother how to properly prepare for birthing both physically, mentally and spiritually by teaching deep relaxation techniques, self-hypnosis and education.
Practicing the methods taught during HypnoBirthing can be a gentle way for a mother to heal any underlying fears, as well as strengthen her bond with her partner and baby before the birth. In today’s Western society birth can become a planned occasion focused on the time, place or the obstetrician’s wishes. HypnoBirthing is one way that the mother can feel more in control of a gentle, natural birth, enabling her body to tap into the power inside her.

Hypnotherapy is a nice complement to pre-natal care and can assist a mother to release any fears that she may have from past or present traumas.

The HypnoBirthing® Advantage:

  • Eliminates the Fear-Tension-Pain Syndrome before, during and after birthing
  • Shortens the first stage of labour by several hours
  • Reduces, and often eliminates the need for chemical anaesthesia, episiotomy, and other interventions
  • Reduces fatigue during labour, leaving the mother fresh, awake, and with energy for the actual birthing of her baby
  • Helps keep oxygen supplied to the baby during birthing
  • Creates a more integral role for the birthing companion
  • Mother's don't run the risk of hyperventilating
  • Birthing becomes the safe, beautiful, peaceful experience that nature intended
  • A better outcome for mother and baby
  • Happier and better adjusted babies
  • Faster postnatal recovery
  • Promotes special bonding between the mother, baby and birth companion

It is best to seek enrollment in classes no later than week 24 of your pregnancy. This will allow for adequate time in case you are put on a waiting list, and enough time for practice prior to the birthing of your baby as you finish your classes.

Classes are limited to five couples per session to allow for individual attention.
