Sophie Douglas Hypnotherapy is a hypnotherapy clinic based in the gorgeous countryside of the Scottish Borders.
We encourage relaxation and breathing techniques for a better pregnancy and birth.
With Hypnobirthing you’ll discover that severe pain does not have to be an accompaniment of labour
You’ll learn how to release the fears and anxieties you may currently have about giving birth
It also allows you to relieve your mind from any traumatic births that have occurred in the past
Hypnobirthing lets you discover and experience the joy and magic of birth
Most importantly, you’ll learn how to put yourself back in control of your birth
Hypnobirthing doesn’t mean you’ll be in a trance or a sleep. Rather, you’ll be able to chat, and be and in good spirits – totally relaxed, but fully in control. You’ll always be aware of what is happening to you, and around you.
Hypnobirthing doesn’t require any particular belief system, or prior experience. Some mums (and especially their husbands!) are often very sceptical at first – until they experience it for themselves.
Just imagine yourself feeling peaceful… relaxed… happy… and even smiling as your baby comes closer to you!
In short, Hypnobirthing allows you to experience birth in an atmosphere of calm relaxation, free of the fear and tension that prevents the birthing muscles of your body from functioning as Nature intended them to.
