Want to know more about the Tens machine?

Let's get it out of the way. The dreaded full form - Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation. It’s not as scientific and scary as it sounds. The mere purpose of a TENS machine is to liberate a mother from pain during the early stages of labor. 

How does it work, you ask? A TENS machine relieves pain with the help of short electrical currents sent through the mechanism. A special maternal TENS machine must be used when a mother suffers labor. 

You still may have many questions such as: does a TENS machine stimulate labor, or can I use a TENS machine during pregnancy? Read on to find out. 

Why you need our TENS machine pads

A TENS machine is usually attached to a patient through the help of pads, each wired to the main machine. The process sends minor electric shock waves through the skin, evoking a buzzing or tingling sensation. 

The buttons on the machine help you control the strength of the waves, and the boost button can be used to avail the optimum settings of the machine. This tool is used to see you through the pain of each contraction. 

Each wave combats the pain signals from your brain, helping the body release endorphins (happy hormones). The use of this machine can give you more control over your labor, or at least, distract you from the pain and make you feel in order. 

The pads can be attached to the back to relieve back pain too. 

How to use:

NOTE: Consult your doctor or midwife BEFORE the use of this product. They will instruct you through the best course. 

The pads are covered in firm gel that stick to your skin, and the controller in your hand can assist in the settings you desire. You may begin using the TENS machine during the beginning or labor, and continue through the second and third stages. 

Ensure the machine is off when you place the pads onto your back. Place two pads on either side of the lower spine, and then two above, near the bra straps. Begin with the lowest setting, and change settings as per comfort. Keep the controller on you to feel more in control. 

The machine is battery operated, so ensure to have cells in abundance.
