Note:

Methods for Pain Management are the same as for

Painless Childbirth, but the symptoms are replaced

with whatever is causing the pain.

So many times I hear, "Painless childbirth!  No way.  You've got to be kidding.  You can't have that kind of pressure without pain."  And I say, "That's old thinking.  It may be all you know for one reason or another ... either because you had a baby already and were in a lot of pain, or if not, it is all you have ever been told."  (By the way:  Ever see a TV or Movie show with the mother having a baby? Don't you just love the way they are always screaming and cussing the father and the doctor and anyone else who is there?  Remember, you are what you think and believe, and what you think and believe you become.  If all we know is it must be painful, then guess what?  It is!)

Mom is in Control

With Guided Imagery Natural & Spiritual Childbirth, the Mom-to-be is taught how to relax, improve self-confidence and alleviate unnecessary pain.    It also helps her to lessen discomfort from the beginning of pregnancy and use these same techniques for other discomforts due to body changes during pregnancy and after baby is born.  The techniques once learned can be used through life for any reason that may involve pain.  These powerful mental guided imagery techniques can provide dramatic relief from morning sickness or heartburn during pregnancy, as well as helping with the other discomforts.

The breathing techniques taught by other childbirth methods can be more easily remembered and performed during labor and delivery when Mom has additional training in Guided Imagery.  The inner mind-power ability that Mothers learn with Guided Imagery enables her to be more self-assured, confident and in complete control of the birthing experience.   (Imagine, Mom-to be, you are in control of the birthing experience, it doesn't control you.)

Guided Imagery Anesthesia Techniques also enable the mother to require less potentially harmful pain medication during labor and delivery, and in a lot of cases, eliminate its need altogether.

Possibly the greatest benefit of guided Imagery Childbirth is that the Mom is in a heightened state of awareness and can be more alert at the time of her baby's birth.  A Mom who is not exhausted or drowsy due to pain medication can fully enjoy a rewarding bonding experience with her baby.

After baby is born, the benefits of Guided Imagery Childbirth continue for Mother .. for example:  techniques to alleviate stress, tension, anxiety and tiredness can provide the new Mom with much needed periods of rest and relaxation and insure a new source of good health and emotional well-being.
