​
Hypnotherapy for childbirth has shown promising results in numerous studies. Here are some detailed findings about its success rates and benefits:
​
Pain Management
-
Approximately 70-85% of participants report using less medical pain relief.
-
Reduced Perception of Pain: A 2011 meta-analysis in the BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology found that women who used hypnotherapy during childbirth reported lower levels of pain compared to those who didn’t.
-
Fewer Epidurals: Studies report that women using hypnobirthing techniques are less likely to request epidurals. One study published in Anesthesia & Analgesia found that only 23% of women practicing hypnobirthing requested an epidural, compared to 76% in the control group.
Labor Outcomes
-
Shorter Labors: Research suggests that hypnotherapy may reduce the overall duration of labor. For example, a 2016 study in the Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology showed shorter first-stage labor times in women who practiced hypnobirthing.
-
Lower Cesarean Rates: Hypnobirthing has been linked to a lower likelihood of cesarean sections. A UK study found that the cesarean rate among hypnobirthing participants was 17%, compared to the national average of 24%.
​
Mental Health Benefits
-
Reduced Anxiety and Fear: Hypnotherapy helps reduce the fear-tension-pain cycle often associated with childbirth. Women report feeling calmer and more in control during labor.
-
Improved Postpartum Recovery: Women who use hypnobirthing techniques often report positive birth experiences, which may reduce the likelihood of postpartum depression.
​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Mothers often report:
-
Shorter and less painful labor.
-
A calmer, more confident approach to delivery.
-
An overall positive and empowering birth experience.

How Hypnosis Works for Childbirth
​Hypnosis helps guide the mind into a deeply relaxed state,
enabling the body to work in harmony with the natural process
of labor. Techniques such as anchors, visualization, affirmations,
and breathing exercises prepare you for a more peaceful birth.​
​​
What to Expect in Your Session
Sessions will help you to relax, feel calm and in control, before
and during labor. We will set and "anchor" * which you can use
during labor to reduce pain, become calm and relaxed.

Success Story
"I was so much looking forward to become a mother and enjoyed my pregnancy but about 6 weeks before ,my due date I became terrified. I freaked out just by thinking about that one day I have to give birth. It seemed impossible. Luckily a mom friend recommended Kristin to me. It was amazing: She had set an "be calm anchor" and as soon as I used it during labor I became absolutely calm and felt in control. I'll always cherish the experience." - Janette T. - client 2021

* In hypnotherapy, an anchor is a psychological trigger used to evoke a specific emotional, mental, or physical state. Anchors are typically associated with sensory stimuli (e.g., touch, sound, or visual cues) and are created through the process of classical conditioning. Once established, an anchor can help individuals access desired states of relaxation, confidence, or motivation, often almost instantly.
