HypBirth is not a guarantee for every woman to have a pain-free childbirth, which is beyond the scope of any childbirth class or program. HypBirth is however a promise to help build confidence and pain management tools for labor. HypBirth is a self-study course in daily relaxation that creates the discipline needed to birth in less time and in less pain. When allowing yourself to co-exist with pain, pain no longer is your enemy and your perception about pain is changed.
Preparing with the intention of a natural childbirth makes the most sense. Most women using the program will achieve their desired birth outcomes, and some labors will even be painless. Additionally, women who choose to use medical assistance will dramatically reduce the amount of time it is needed and they will be less likely to have a c-section.
It all starts with building confidence and having a positive attitude toward your birth experience. HypBirth prepares women with real tools for labor- and therein lies the empowerment of birth.
