Hypnosis For Pain Control in Child Birth

3,674 Views POSTED ON October 21st, 2009

As a hypnotherapist I often get asked can hypnosis really help with pain control. This question is usually asked by a pregnant mum to be. More and more women these days are choosing to have their children by caesarian and so avoid the pain of natural labor. I find myself wondering if all these women would still do so if they knew how helpful hypnosis can be in relation to pain control and also how easy it is to learn.

Clinical studies have shown that women in both first and second stages of labor who use hypnosis in preparation for the birth have an easier time than those in a control group. For example in one published study the hypnosis group spent an average time of 6.4 hours in the first stage as opposed to 9.3 hours in the control group, whilst they spent 37 minutes in the second stage as opposed to 50 minutes. In addition to this, the use of analgesic agents was significantly reduced in the hypnotized groups as opposed to the control groups.

With so many highlighting techniques out there, it can be confusing when it comes to choosing the right type of highlights for your style and cut. But with a few pointers, you can have highlights that compliment your cut and style in a way that you’ve never imagined.

Many of today’s highlighting techniques like chunking and slicing are geared toward younger audiences with trendy haircuts. But if you have a classic cut, these techniques can give you a look that is a little mismatched or over the top. So, instead of opting for those boring frosting cap highlights that you’ve worn for the past 10 years, why not try a new technique that is just as classy but one that will bring your hair into this century.

Dating Tip: Don’t Be Too Grateful

Gratitude is transformative. When you’re grateful for your blessings, you’re happy. You’re radiant. You attract men, loyal friends, and good jobs. You lure birds from the trees.

But there is definitely such a thing as being too grateful.

Here’s an example: A woman (let’s call her Audrey) starts dating a guy (let’s call him Doug). Doug is by far the most handsome guy she’s ever dated. In fact, he’s the first guy she’s dated in quite some time. She can’t believe her good fortune because, in the looks-oriented world we live in, Audrey has been told she’s lacking. She figures she hit the jackpot with Doug.
