Aromatherapy

Breast milk is the best possible nutrition for your baby. Close contact with your baby – skin-to-skin bonding – not just in the first few hours of life, is the first step towards successful breastfeeding.

The scent of herbs and essential oils can create a positive, soothing atmosphere during labour. It can help you to relax and unwind, and boost your concentration, determination and strength. Each of our rooms is equipped with a diffuser; please ask your midwife for your preferred scent.
