Award-Winning Labour TENS Machine:

The Obi TENS machine is an award-winning device designed to provide effective pain relief during labour using TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) technology.
It works by sending gentle electrical pulses through electrode pads placed on your skin, which help stimulate the release of endorphins, your body’s natural painkillers.
With its user-friendly design, customizable settings, and portability, Obi TENS offers expectant mothers a safe, drug-free method to manage contractions and experience a more comfortable birthing process.

How to use during labour
At the onset of labour, simply apply the four pads to your back as shown in the accompanying instructions and switch the Babycare TENS machine on. Increase the intensity to a comfortable level so that you can feel a pleasant pulsing sensation. When experiencing a contraction, press the Boost button for the extra surge of power needed to combat the pain. When the contraction ends, press the Boost button again - it is that simple!

Why should I use a Babycare TENS machine?
Babycare TENS make only the highest quality products known for their excellent design and ease of use. Babycare TENS provides unrivalled customer care. All Babycare TENS machines are compliant with European medical device regulations. User feedback has shown that a Babycare TENS machine is most effective during the first stage of labour and helps the mother to remain in control, stay alert and considerably reduce drug intake. Most importantly, there are no known side effects for mother or baby.

Can I use an ordinary TENS machine?
No. Babycare TENS machines are specifically designed for childbirth. They use larger pads than conventional TENS machines and include a booster button, which is very important for relieving pain during contractions.

Can I try the Babycare TENS machine before labour begins?
Yes, once you have reached 37 weeks of pregnancy, it is a good idea to try your machine so that you know how it works before labour begins. To do so, remove two pads from the packaging and connect them to one lead. Place both pads onto the skin on your forearm to feel the different pulse sensations. Remember to follow the instructions on the back of the electrode packet to keep them fresh for the big day. It is recommended that you order an extra pack of electrodes for practicing.

Can a Babycare TENS machine be used in hospital?
Yes, but you may have to switch it off temporarily if the midwife requires you to do so.

Can a Babycare TENS machine be used with other methods of pain relief?
Yes, in conjunction with gas and air or pethidine.

Can I use a Babycare TENS machine if I am considering a water birth?
Yes, but not in the water itself. It is recommended to use TENS right from the start of your labour to build up your endorphin level. As a midwife will usually ask you to enter the water when you are 4-5cm dilated, TENS is an ideal pain-relief solution up until this point. It is recommended that you order an extra pack of electrodes if you are planning a water birth.

When should I start using my Babycare TENS machine if I am being induced?
To allow time for your endorphin level to rise, begin using your machine one hour before your induction.

Will a Babycare TENS machine be worthwhile if I end up having an epidural or a caesarean?
Yes, you can use the machine beforehand for pain relief. It is particularly good for the early stages of labour when you are at home with no other pain relief available. The machine can also be used from 37 weeks of pregnancy for back pain and then for general pain relief following labour.
