Just Popping Out
My name is Nancy Wheatland, I provide antenatal classes for prospective parents, which are fun, interactive and realistic. I am a qualified midwife with over 30 years experience, who enjoys preparing "parents to be" for labour and beyond and am registered with the Federation of Antenatal Educators (FEDANT Registration number 11826).

The thought of having a baby can be frightening so my aim is to empower you with the information to make your antenatal time and labour a practical, positive experience that will enable you to manage your fears. My antenatal classes will be relaxed, informative and give you many tips and coping strategies for the birth and what comes after. This will assist you in making informed decisions with your midwife about your care in labour.

Back2Health
Back2Health has clinics in seven locations in Hampshire and West Sussex.  We aim to provide our patients with the best possible level of health care, whilst also offering value for money. Our aim is to make treatments convenient to the patient, and this reflects in our hours of work, and the ease with which a patient can make an appointment.

Chiropractic is a health profession concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the effects of these disorders on the function of the nervous system and general health. There is an emphasis on manual treatments including spinal manipulation or adjustment.

By restoring normal function to the musculoskeletal system chiropractors can play a major part in relieving disorders and any accompanying pain or discomfort arising from accidents, stress, lack of exercise, poor posture, illness and the every day wear and tear that happens to all of us.

Portsmouth Hypnotherapy Clinic
Born in Southsea Hants, UK. I have had a long career in the Health Service, as a Nursing Sister, Midwifery Sister, and Health Visitor. I progressed onto a counselling course which I was able to implement into my nurse practise, with patients and colleagues.

Women are constantly bombarded with negative stories about childbirth, told it is the most PAINFUL thing they will ever experience in their life, told of gory birth complications, and medical intervention. Women are conditioned to be tense, anxious, and worried. 'PAIN OF CHILDBIRTH', can be a self fulfilling prophecy.

As an experienced MIDWIFE , now practising HYPNOTHERAPY, I have a foot in both camps. I ask WHY IS IT SO FANTASTICALLY GOOD? Hypnosis for easier birthing teaches you and your birthing partner the 'art and joy of childbirth' in a more comfortable manner. You learn to call upon your bodies natural epidural and lessen discomfort to a very great degree. You are in control of one of LIFE'S MIRACLES, IN A SAFE CALMER, EASIER MODE.

Rose McMurray
I treat the person holistically. Illness, especially chronic illness, does not appear from nowhere! There is always an underlying cause or a precipitating factor. My aim is to help people identify this and then to trigger their own innate healing energy, simply by working on the feet.

Treatment is entirely non-invasive and, apart from shoes and socks, you will always be clothed. I treat people in my own home in Rowlands Castle in a pleasant, quiet room.
