For most expectant mums the thought of labour can be a scary prospect, in particular not knowing the level of pain that will be experienced. There are lots of options to relieve pain, however, expectant mums can take some control by arranging to have a tens machine on hand when labour begins, and for some lucky mums it may be all you need to get you through labour!
A tens machine works by stimulating your body's own natural defences against pain by transmitting gentle, electrical impulses through your skin via four self-adhesive electrode pads positioned on your back.
The MamaTENS unit is recommended by the Royal College of Midwives and is widely accepted as the most effective and easiest maternity TENS unit to use. Find out more about how easy it is to rent a MamaTENS from Little Arrival Bag, or why not consider investing in your own MamaTENS machine if you're planning future pregnancies. 10% off MamaTENS until 30th November 2008 with Little Arrival Bag.
