Holistic Hypnobirthing and Holistic Touch Physio

I am an advocate and graduate of Hypnobirth Australia course which was delivered to us by consultant Katrina Evans. Katrina provided a beautiful relaxing and calm space within her home to host our course. She was very flexible, friendly, knowledgeable and her passion for the course is incredible. This was important to us in preparation of brining our beautiful son into the world after a traumatic first pregnancy and birth and having a further high risk pregnancy we sought guidance on hypnobirthing to make this experience a very calm one and the ability to use the techniques during pregnancy in the lead up to birth so we were very well informed of our options and able to advocate these in a respectful, calm and educated manor with the professionals taking care of our pregnancy and birth. Katrina provided us with many tools and resources throughout the course and she was contactable for any further info we required or questions and was also able to offer physiotherapist services seperate to the course. We finished the course feeling very empowered and excited to embark on the journey of birthing our son and parenthood. During the lead up to birth we used many of the resources to prepare and during/following the birth we can honestly attest that the outcome of our birth was a very calm, controlled, beautiful and healing experience. I highly recommend this course and Katrina as a consultant and would like to pass on our deep gratitude for her being a part of our pregnancy and birth preparation. I am delighted to share our experience and our calm birth story along with the safe arrival of our beautiful Son. More...

Katrina delivered the Hypnobirthing Australia course to us in July 2021. I would highly recommend Katrina for this course, she is so friendly, caring and passionate about the course content and deliveries it in an easy enjoyable manner. In addition, being a private course and in private practice means Katrina is super flexible with days and times of the course delivery. We chose to do the course over 4 x 3hr sessions at 32/33 weeks pregnant and could pick times that suited us both with working full-time. She has made us both really comfortable with the birth of our first baby and really look forward to their arrival in August. Thank you Katrina, couldn't recommend you any more! ❤ More...

Katrina is such a warm-hearted and kind person. I get so anxious going to any 1:1 appointment and she immediately puts me at ease. I have been to Katrina for my pregnancy massages at 9 months. I live 7 hours away from Newcastle, so Katrina was happy to integrate elements of her hypnobirthing training into our sessions and also invited my husband into the session and gave us a crash course on counter pressures and relaxation techniques. Her massages leave me so relaxed and elated. I cannot praise or recommend Katrina and her business enough. More...

I’ve seen Katrina twice now for pregnancy massages and she and the massages have been fantastic!! Especially my most recent one as I had some intense pain in my left side which left me so uncomfortable turning in the night, coughing, sneezing or even laughing. She worked her magic and honestly I left feeling no pain at all and now a week on, nothing! It’s amazing. I had been dealing with that pain for weeks thinking it was part and parcel of being in my third trimester but now I feel fab again! Thanks again Katrina! I will be seeing you soon for one last pamper before baby arrives and will definitely seek your support post partum too! More...

I can’t recommend Katrina highly enough. Craving a “proper” massage and relief from pregnancy-related aches and pains, I ended seeing her fortnightly as my treatments evolved through the different stages of my pregnancy. From hypo-birthing scripts, soothing music, words of reassurance to later essential oils and the use of a tens machine to help me during labour, i found Katrina’s particular interest and knowledge in all things pregnancy-related to be invaluable. She provides a holistic approach due to all the ‘extras’ available to complement her physiotherapy practice. She’s extremely knowledgeable, friendly and adaptable and I’m grateful to her for all the support she provided me! More...
