Drug free dream birthing - relief at the touch of a button

A drug free birth with effective strong pain relief at the touch of a button, no side effects, no drowsiness, and the ability to stay active – it sounds too good to be true!

Labour TENS (www.labourtens.com.au) help thousands of women have their dream birthing experience. Whether you want a natural, drug free, minimal intervention, or ‘give me comfort and no pain' type of birth - Labour TENS is for you. Jennifer thinks labour TENS is underrated as a natural pain relief tool. "As a midwife I usually teach women about TENS for labour but now I have first hand experience. I can personally recommend Labour TENS to all women."

Labour TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) is a pocket sized machine run on batteries which provides you with an effective natural pain blocker.  Four sticky electrode pads are placed on your back and you control the intensity. Labour TENS is specially designed to cope with childbirth, during a contraction when the pain becomes strong just press the boost button for instant relief. Labour TENS works in harmony with the birth process, releasing endorphins; the feel good hormones that keep mum calm and relaxed.

Heather Greer the founder of www.labourtens.com.au is a Registered Nurse, Mother and Natural Birth Educator. My hospital work in a pain clinic lead me to using TENS for patients with chronic pain. When I had my own children I used it very effectively for my labours. I was surprised that in Australia it was less common as 1 in 5 European women will use the Labour TENS for childbirth. Heather says "more and more women are hearing about the benefits of labour TENS from friends and clinicians. As hospital staff see the positive results for themselves, Obstetricians, midwives and physiotherapists are recommending us to expectant mothers. Some professionals have had personal experience of a labour TENS drug free birth." One physiotherapist in ACT says "I thought the Labour TENS was great - it was my only pain relief and made the whole birth experience bearable".

Jennifer, a Midwife in Sydney says: "Thank you - Labour TENS was my saving grace. Before I put the TENS on I was at home thinking I can't get through this without drugs. Then I put the labour TENS on and instantly it really helped with the pain. Once I put it on there was no taking it off me - I could not have got through a drug free labour without it - I didn't even need gas and air. I can personally recommend Labour TENS - it's fantastic".
