Please see  Elle TENS Plus Instruction Manual 

Looking to add a birth comb as an extra support tool for labour? check out our beautiful curvy birth come HERE!

For hire is the Elle TENS Plus, the most advanced natural pain management device for labour available in Australia. TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) is a natural pain relief tool for your labour, as it assists and distracts you from the pains of labour, helping you through the labour process. Your hire booking is for 8 weeks. You will receive the TENS on or just before you are 36 weeks.

A must-have for your birth plan / hospital bag

The Elle Tens Plus is an easy to use, gentle way to relieve the pain of contractions during labour by amplifying all your body’s amazing natural pain blocking abilities. The gentle electrical pulses block pain signals from reaching your brain & helps build endorphins, allowing for an overall better labouring experience.

The Elle Tens Plus is the ultimate in obstetric TENS, specifically designed for use during labour, and is perfectly safe for you and baby. The Elle Plus is more advanced as it has both a Birth mode and Pain Mode. So you may prefer one mode over the other during your labour, or use the Pain mode at home during your postpartum. Your gel pads can be reused many times if they are kept clean, and placed back on their film after labour use. Use the TENS at home for after birth pains, cramping or sciatica or birth trauma pain. If you would like to purchase extra gel pads, you can find them here.
