‘Cesarean Birth – Calm and Relaxed’ incorporates the techniques of relaxation, breathing, visualisation and self-hypnosis to prepare your mind & body for a calm and positive caesarean birth.

Deep relaxation and self-hypnosis have been shown to reduce the perception of pain, level of post-surgery medication required and also the length of recovery. The birth of your baby can and should be one of the most treasured times in your life. Prepare yourself to experience the joy!

Melissa is a passionate advocate for natural birthing; but also recognises that sometimes the safest delivery for mother and baby is via c-section. In addition to being one of Australia’s most popular and recognised hypnobirthing instructors, she has pioneered a special course to prepare parents for Cesarean Birth, which is receiving national and international acclaim.

Cesarean Birth – Calm and Relaxed has been developed to assist mothers to prepare for a positive C-section birth.
