I had three sessions before DD (fourth session was cancelled due to her arrival!). They claimed it would help with a speedy opening of cervix and make me more relaxed. I'm not convinced it made much difference to me, but I didn't really enjoy it as much as I thought I would. It wasn't as relaxing as a massage or a nice bath Smile

Have you ever had it before for something else?
