    Your Peace of Mind:  We have a thorough cleaning process of the units and wires between every hire, using high alcohol disinfectant wipes to BS EN 1276.  In addition for your reassurance, with postage and reprocessing time, there is always a time lag of well in excess of 72 hours between hires.  In March 2020, we have revised our returns process, so that the freepost returns mailer can be popped into any letterbox without the need to go to the Post Office.


    Optional Extras

    Only necessary if planning prolonged use e.g. back pain in late pregnancy. One set of pads included with the hire is enough for labour itself

    To give you extra peace of mind, we will send your machine 2 weeks earlier at 34 weeks instead of 36 weeks.

    TENS - Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation


    1. Drug free pain relief in labour – what is it?
    2. What does it feel like?
    3. Are there any side effects?
    4. When should I stop using or remove the machine?
    5. When should I hire the TENS machine?
    6. What if I go over my due date?

    9. Can I test the machine before labour?

    1.Drug free pain relief in labour – what is it?

    The Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) machine uses a small battery operated unit to provide a non-invasive and drug free method of helping to control labour pain. At the onset of labour, simply apply the four pads to your back as shown in the accompanying instructions and switch the TENS machine on. You will feel a pleasant pulsing sensation. This will help to raise the level of your own pain relieving chemicals known as endorphins. When experiencing a contraction, press the booster button for the extra surge of power needed to combat the pain. When the contraction ends, press the booster button again - it is that simple! The Labour TENS can be an effective technique for pain relief in over 80% of births with no side effects.
    Evidence shows that to achieve the best results the TENS should be used from the onset of labour. In order to build up endorphins (the body’s natural pain relievers) the TENS needs to be in place for at least 40 minutes before the full effectiveness can be felt.

    2. What does it feel like?

    Most people describe the sensation of the TENS machine as tingling or pins and needles.

    3. Are there any side effects?

    It is not thought that using TENS in labour has any adverse effects on either you or your baby. You are free to move around while using it and you can use it in conjunction with gas and air. However you must remember it cannot be used if you want to try a birthing pool for pain relief and you can’t use it if you have a cardiac pacemaker.

    4. When should I stop using or remove the machine?

    When you remove the machine is completely up to you. It can be used in conjunction with gas and air to provide effective pain relief, and can be used for the duration of your labour. Often the effectiveness of the TENS machine is only realised once it has been removed.

    5. When should I hire the TENS machine?

    It is a good idea to book your TENS machine in early pregnancy (about 25-30 weeks) to avoid disappointment. It will then be dispatched in time for your 37th week. Do not worry if you have not ordered a TENS machine and you are nearing your due date just select "Express Delivery" and we will dispatch the machine on a Next "working" Day service

    6. What if I go over my due date?

    Do not worry as no extra charges will be incurred. When you hire the TENS you will be given a return date of 3 weeks after your due date. This should give enough time if your baby is overdue. If you do require more time please just let us know.

    7. Can I use the TENS machine for backache?

    You can use the TENS machine for back ache once you have reached 37 weeks in your pregnancy. Before this time you must check with your midwife. Replacement electrode pads can be purchased for £4.99 should you require them

    8. Where do I position the pads on my back?

    Try to get help when positioning the pads. The electrode placement pads need to be positioned 4/5cm above and below an imaginary line drawn with the navel. 2/3cm on either side of the spine.

    9. Can I test the machine before labour?

    Yes definitely, we would recommend you familiarise yourself with the machine and how to use it. Do not worry about the adhesiveness of the pads as they can re-used several times (ensure no oils or creams are present on the skin). Instructions on how to test the machine are included. Once you have tested the machine remove all the wires and don’t forget to place the protective covers back on electrodes to prevent them from drying out. Pack the machine away carefully and wait for the big day.

    Please note that we are only able to hire these units within the UK.

    1. Ella (verified owner) –

      Great service, the TENS machine arrived with good time, so I didn’t have to worry. Very effective and easy to use during labour. Easy to return.

    2. Emily L (verified owner) –

      Tens machine arrived weeks before I gave birth, really simple instructions and professional packaging. I stayed home for 24 hours in labour thanks to this, couldn’t of done it without the tens machine went into hospital measuring 5cm all only using the tens machine. Really simple putting it all together, I found it helped massively and the sticky patches that went on your back never peeled off once which was great. Came with a spare battery that I never used and I used it for at least 28 hours I’d say!! Really great value for money, easy to return would definitely use again next time!! 5 star recommendation get one definitely helped so much with contraction pain!! Thank you!!

    3. Lois Simpson (verified owner) –

      A huge thank you for the speedy service I received when hiring this TENS machine. I could not recommend you or the use of a TENS machine enough. I could not have survived the first stages of labour at home without it! I had heard mixed reviews from people about the use of a TENS machine but I am glad I went with my instinct and hired one. I couldn’t recommend enough! My little girl has now safely arrived and we are back home enjoying our new little family. Thank you again!

    4. Ed & Issy –

      This machine was absolutely fantastic – the best twenty pounds we have ever spent! Issy used it for nearly 36 hours of labour during the birth of our son William, and the difference between her and the other mothers in the maternity unit was marked. Thanks again

    5. Alina –

      It was a huge help during labour, espeacially before going to the hospital when there arr not a lot of pain relief options and also during the more intense contractions.
