Pain Relief During Childbirth - Hypnosis
Pain relief during childbirth doesn't always necessitate the use of convetional drugs. Some women find hypnosis an effective and deeply relaxing way to deal with the pain and discomfort of labor and delivery.
Whilst many hypnosis techniques can be taught early on in your pregnancy and practised beforehand, some women hire an hypnotist to be at their bedside during the labor and birth whilst others play an hypnosis cd or get a partner to recite a prepared script to them. Many women also find that soothing music helps them to relax and play a favourite cd alongside their hypnosis script. Specialist hypnobirthing classes are often run by professional hypnotherapists and some even offer personalised hypnobirthing cds or mp3s that can be used during labour and birth.
