This hands-on workshop is designed for women and their partners as a team. In this rehearsal for birthing, mothers-to-be are instructed in possible strategies and positions for labour, birthing breathing practices and other techniques such as sounding and visualization, hypnosis to promote the birthing process. The birth partners are instructed how to actively help the mothers-to-be during labour. We explore massage and acupressure techniques which can be practised during pregnancy and during the birth process itself to relax and alleviate pain.
Because of its very practical content, this workshop is highly appreciated. We recommend couples join the workshop 8 – 4 weeks before the scheduled due date so that there is enough time to practice.
