Tuesday, 17 February 2015 by Jo Watson
Water birth enables women to give birth in the way their bodies were designed.
“We were not designed to give birth under water!” I can hear you say!

I am loving the current series of “The British Bake Off” and seeing all those amazing cakes puts me in mind of a birth I attended at home!

Hypnotherapy for Childbirth
Tuesday, 24 December 2013 by Jo Watson
Continuing with a series of blogs here at UK Birth Centre Ltd on preparation tips for your birth and beyond here we are discussing hypnotherapy.
Hypnosis is "a state of deep physical relaxation with an alert mind producing alpha waves, in which the subconscious mind can be more readily accessed" ( Mantle 2000 ) Hypnosis used for childbirth is almost always self-hypnosis: the hypnotherapist teaches the woman to induce the hypnotic state in herself during labour.
