A TENS machine can be a powerful tool for birth, particularly in early labour. It works by sending weak electrical currents to your nerves through sticky pads placed on your back. This stimulation
🌟 blocks pain signals to your brain
🌟 stimulates the production of endorphins, our bodies own pain relievers

TENS machines are most effective during early labour, and the intensity of the impulses are controlled by you so most people tend to start on the lowest setting and increase as labour progresses. They cannot be used in water so need to be removed before getting into a bath, shower or birthing pool 🫧 They are also not recommended for those with pacemakers or heart disorders.

There is limited robust evidence on how effective TENS machines are at reducing labour pain however many women report positive experiences with using them and that it enables them to actively take part in their own pain relief πŸ’₯

With no medication involved and no risk of side effects to mum or baby, TENS machines are considered a safe option for pain relief and many women believe it to be worth adding to their birthing toolkit πŸ’«

Such lovely feedback, thank you ⭐

Many couples find dedicating the time to preparing for birth together opens up discussions with eachother about how they are feeling about becoming new parents, helps them to connect on a new level and creates a birthing power duo ready to take on new parenthood πŸ’₯ πŸ’ͺ🏻

Want to carve out some time together to connect and prepare for birth? Send me a message to hold a space for you and your birth partner at my next course next month!
