Women’s health is not only about the body. Stress, anxiety, low confidence and old fears can affect periods, fertility, pregnancy and recovery after birth. At Venus Women’s Wellness Clinic in Wakad, Dr. Madhavi Tayade offers NLP therapy as gentle, supportive care for emotional wellbeing, especially in pregnancy and the months after delivery.
What NLP is
Neuro-Linguistic Programming, or NLP, is a set of techniques built on the link between how we think, the words we use, and how we feel and behave. In a session you are guided through simple exercises: you notice a pattern that is not helping you, reframe it and practise a calmer, more confident response. Relaxation, visualisation and breathing are often part of it.
We use NLP for everyday stress and worry, low confidence, fear of labour, anxiety about becoming a mother, and the emotional strain that can come with fertility treatment or PCOD.
Supportive care, not a replacement
NLP is supportive. It does not replace psychiatric or psychological care, or any prescribed medicine. If you already see a psychiatrist or psychologist, please continue; we can work alongside them. If what you are going through needs specialist mental health care, such as persistent depression, panic attacks or thoughts of self-harm, we will help you get it.
As a Consultant Gynaecologist and Obstetrician, Dr. Madhavi Tayade also checks for physical causes that can affect mood, such as thyroid problems, anaemia or hormonal changes.
How it fits with our other care
NLP often works well with other practices. Meditation, yoga and a steady daily routine may support emotional balance, and calming Ayurvedic therapies such as Shirodhara may be suggested where suitable. In pregnancy, NLP is part of our Garbhasanskar programme. After delivery, we offer it as part of postnatal care.
When to reach out
Book a session if stress or worry is affecting your sleep, work or relationships, if you feel anxious about pregnancy or delivery, or if you have been feeling low since having a baby. If you have thoughts of harming yourself or someone else, please do not wait. Go to the nearest hospital or call 108, and reach out to someone you trust.
Looking after your mind is part of looking after your health. Call us or book an NLP session with Dr. Madhavi Tayade at our clinic in Wakad.
