What other Bella Mamas say...
recommend to others, not only does it help with pain, I also found it a distraction during contractions - pushing the boost button and concentrating on the sensation from the machine, rather than the pain-  Lynley H.

"I found the TENS machine really helpful, especially during the early stages of labour... Loved the boost button! Highly recommended"  Rebecca H.

"I used the tens machine throughout my labour. It was great!!!! I would definitely recommend it and yes I agree Rebecca, loved the boost button each time a contraction came!"  Alison H

"I used to have some that I loaned to clients and they made a real difference in rates of drugs used for pain. Brilliant idea!" - Anna M (midwife)
