TENS
has a rapid growing reputation as one of the safest,
most effective forms of modern pain control available
to women during childbirth.
The
treatment is widely approved and recommended by
medical professionals, and allows you to experience
a drug-free labour, with personal control over your
pain relief. The maternity TENS
machine is effective, drug free pain relief
during labour and is recommended by Doctors and
Midwives. It allows you to stay alert and keep mobile,
and is easy to use. TENS is totally natural so is
safe for you and your baby. It doesn't cause drowsiness,
is non invasive and is compatible with other forms
of pain relief.
The
maternity TENS, Pregnancy TENS and Labour TENS machines
are easy to use. The electrodes are placed on your
back following the clear diagram in the TENS machine
instruction booklet included in the box. The intensity
is increased with the use of two buttons on the
machine, operating the two sets of pads independently,
giving you flexibility to harness the power of TENS
where you need it. There is an additional Boost
button that allows you to increase the power to
work against the pain of contractions. There are
also two additional buttons that you may wish to
use later in labour. Whenever you want to remove
the Labour TENS/ Pregnancy TENS machine is completely
up to you. It can be used in conjunction with gas
and air to provide efficient labour
pain relief, and can be used for the duration
of your labour. Often the effectiveness of the TENS
machine is only realised once it has been removed.
