Gowri Motha
During her twelve years within the NHS, Dr Motha observed the benefits of integrating Self Hypnosis and Visualisation classes for a gentle birth with complementary treatments into birth preparation, such as Reflexology, the Bowen Technique, Cranio- Sacral technique, Ayurveda and Alexander technique.
As part of her quest to help mothers to look forward to giving birth, she introduced water births into the NHS in the eighties. She was the first doctor to conduct a documented water birth within a London NHS hospital. Gowri and her close-knit team of complementary practitioners are dedicated to guiding mothers throughout their pregnancy by offering optimal treatments at the appropriate times during gestation. The Gentle Birth Method book was written so that mothers all over the world can read and follow the simple week-by-week programme given in the book and experience the benefits of gentle birth. The GBM book has an enthusiastic following here in the UK and in several countries worldwide.

Marina Matuschewski
I became a qualified Dipl. Hypnotherapist and Councillor in 2012 and I am a member of the National Hypnotherapy Society. Three years ago I started to work with Dr Gowri Motha and became a Gentle Birth Method practitioner. I offer Visualisation for birth preparation and Creative Healing. When I am not doing this I am a mother of three nearly grown-ups and in my previous life I was a hotel manager for many years.
I am also a German national, so obviously I have no sense of humour whatsoever!
