The Obi TENS is simple, versatile and perfect for those painful moments during labour. It is one of the most effective, portable, affordable TENS machines available today. The Obi TENS is an ultra simple yet powerful obstetric TENS unit perfect for drug-free pain relief during labour. It has 2 pre-set modes one for use during contractions, the other for use between contractions.
When to use your Obi TENS machines for Labour?
Obi TENS can be used from the onset of labour. Simply apply the 4 pads to your back as shown in the instructions and turn on Obi TENS . You will feel a pleasant pulsing sensation; this will help to increase your own pain relieving chemicals known as endorphins.
The Obi TENS has a single channel to control intensity over the mid and lower back. When experiencing a contraction, simply press the boost button for the extra surge of power needed to combat the pain. When the contraction ends, press the boost button again and it will automatically return to its previous level. The Obi TENS can also be used for post labour pain such as shoulder, back, period pain and much more.
What does TENS stand for?
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) which works by passing mild electrical pulses through the skin, via electrode pads, into the nerve fibres which lie below. These pulses help your body to produce its own pain killing chemicals, such as endorphins.
