Here is an easy to understand summary of findings of the research above.

Purpose: Evaluated the GentleBirth app for preparing expectant mothers with brain training techniques (mindfulness, pain neuroscience education, and hypnosis).

Results: Increased knowledge about pain and improved confidence in managing labor and birth.

Medical Intervention: Lowered usage of epidurals and cesarean sections.

Satisfaction: High satisfaction levels among participants with their labor experiences.

Coping Skills: Participants felt better equipped to cope with labor.

Significance: Demonstrated potential for mobile birth preparation to improve comfort, reduce stress, and support natural birthing outcomes​.

We are very excited to have 3 research projects happening in the Summer of 2020 with a University in Canada, Brazil and Portugal.

This research was conducted in Cork University Hospital (one of the largest maternity units in Europe) comparing the outcomes of participants who attended standard prenatal classes at the hospital and GentleBirth workshop attendees.
