TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) has a rapidly growing reputation as one of the safest, most effective forms of modern pain control available to women during childbirth
The treatment is widely approved and recommended by medical professionals, and allows you to experience a mobile, drug-free labour, with personal control over your pain relief
Mamatens transmits gentle, electrical impulses through your skin via four self-adhesive electrode pads positioned on your back
The pain suffered during birth might start with the first contraction or when the cervix starts to dilate. The pain then increases progressively until the cervix is completely dilated. During this period you will experience pain of different types and intensities but due to the innovative technology which has been incorporated into the MAMA TENS tens unit, you will be able to help counter this. The MAMA TENS tens unit achieves this by delivering a variety of signals dependent upon the stage of your labour.
MamaTens has been specially designed to work for women in labour
The electrode pads and the MamaTens control unit are small and unobtrusive, allowing you to move around, as you need to.
The MamaTens stimulation programmes have been pre-set, so that you don't have to fiddle around with the controls. You can take MamaTens into hospital with you, or use it at home.
MamaTens will help you to relax and prepare for the birth of your baby, taking you right through labour, from the first contractions to delivery.
MamaTens is also useful after the birth, easing after-pains as your uterus contracts, and helping you to manage the discomfort of an episiotomy or tear.
When labour begins, your midwife or birth partner can attach the electrodes to your back, as shown in the picture. Plug the electrodes into your control unit and you are ready to begin using Mamatens. Positive effects can be felt immediately.
It has a user variable ‘low-level' output for the relief of mild pain and a ‘high-Ievel' output (known as Boost mode), for enhanced pain suppression during labour contractions.
MamaTENS uses the latest technology. A digital unit with preset programmes to ensure maximum pain relief.
