According to the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, 6.1 million American women and their partners experience difficulties in conceiving a child.  Worldwide it is estimated that 10 to 15% of couples of childbearing age experience infertility.

Many of these families will turn to Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART).  Studies have shown that including hypnotherapy in their treatment can double their success rate. 

The Journal of the American Medical Women’s Association reported in 1999 that 42% of women were able to conceive within six months of being taught mind/body relaxation techniques. Additionally, these women were able to affectively decrease their levels of stress, anxiety and depression. Other studies have been conducted, all with similar results.

This newly expanded course, offered only through the HypnoBirthing Institute, will guide you in helping families achieve their dream of conceiving and birthing a child, whether they are choosing medically assisted conception or alternative methods.
