The Hypnobirthing Australia™ 'Positive Birth Program' actually WORKS!

Award winning Childbirth Educator, Midwife & Nurse, Kasey Biggar was instrumental in having our Positive Birth Program, Positive Caesarean Birth Program and Positive Birth Indigenous program all implemented into Bunbury hospital in Western Australia. She collected data over a year long period and compared the birth outcomes of those who attended our Positive Birth Program with those who didn’t.
When she shared the amazing results with the Western Australian Country Health Service (WACHS), which is responsible for 19 hospitals throughout regional and rural W.A., they were so impressed they made our program available throughout ALL of their health services! If that isn’t a testament to the effectiveness of this program we don’t know what is. 😁 Our programs are evidence based, down to earth, accessible and they actually WORK!

But it doesn't stop there!
It’s not just about how we birth, it’s also about how we feel about our birth. There is so much birth trauma experienced in our modern world and we need to change that. The positive birth program Can play an instrumental part in this change. With the outcomes collected women were asked to choose words to describe birth before and then after attending our positive birth program. This course completely changed the way Women described birth – from negative to positive.
