Latin for “a sacred place” or “a private place”. Our Birthing Center provides mothers uninhibited freedom to labor as they wish, with no unnecessary medical intervention. Mothers give birth to their babies in an atmosphere which is supportive, and caring. At The Sanctum, mothers, along with their family, cherish the sacred and magical moment of birth, which is holistic, serene, and yet powerful.
The singlemost important decision we have taken in a long time
is to switch to Healthy Mother. We are so glad and lucky to have done that.

At the core of the Healthy Mother Philosophy is the belief that women's bodies know how to give birth. For hundreds of years nature has perfected the woman's body to give birth, and most women are capable of giving birth naturally.
We therefore respect a woman's ability to give birth naturally and support mothers at all times during the childbirth process in order to make it a fulfilling experience for them and their families.
We believe many routine medical interventions being performed in today's hospitals across India are not essential for the childbirth process. Therefore, we support and help provide medical interventions only if becomes medically necessary such as in an emergency.
We believe that women who come to us to give birth are not patients but are healthy individuals experiencing one of the most coveted phases of life, and who want to ensure the best possible care for their babies and for themselves.
We therefore treat our expectant mothers and their families with utmost respect, care and empathy. We recognize that for every one of our mothers and dads, childbirth is a momentous lifetime event - so we help make it fulfilling, rewarding and memorable for them and their families.

Nature's Simple Plan for Birth
For nine months, the baby is bound to his mother by the umbilical cord, totally dependent on her for all his needs. What has been played out by nature for centuries then repeats itself. At the right time, heralded by a rush of oxytocin hormones, mother's uterine muscles start contracting at regular intervals. Her baby is now getting ready to leave the protected sanctuary of her womb and emerge into this world....
She feels pain, an integral part of this process and a natural stimulant for further relase of hormones and contractions - all towards helping her baby to be born. She is strong amidst the pain; her body knows how to react; she moves in ways so as to help her baby move further down the birth canal. Nature's narcotics, the powerful Endorphins hormones, transport her to another world. Time stops for her...... her senses shut down to the outside world. But she is surrounded by her loved ones who provide her the strength and confidence to give birth as nature has intended.
As the cycle of birth continues, the mother's inner wisdom transcends all other sciences for a moment, and she knows - it is time to welcome her baby into this world... "Come forth without fear, my baby!"
