What is HypnoBirthing®
HypnoBirthing is as much a philosophy
as a technique. HypnoBirthing - The Mongan Method was
devised by Marie Mongan, founder of the HypnoBirthing
Institute in New Hampshire, USA. Thousands of babies
worldwide have come into this world using this calm
way of birthing.
Marie believes that when we release fear
which many women associate with childbirth, we will
experience a gentle, easy birth. HypnoBirthing - The
Mongan Method explodes the myth of pain as a natural
part of childbirth.
Renee Buchanan is a Faculty Member of
the HypnoBirthing Institute. She trains nurses, midwives,
doulas (professional birth companions) and hypnotherapists
towards HypnoBirthing Practitioner certification. Renee
also holds regular courses, teaching couples HypnoBirthing
- The Mongan Method, in order that they can have a safer,
calmer, more comfortable birth.
