How do I use a TENS unit?
Can I try the TENS unit before labor before I go into labor?
Yes, once you have reached 37 weeks of pregnancy you are welcome and encouraged to try the TENS unit. Please use alcohol pads to wipe off any oils before applying the pads to prolong the stickiness of the pads. After use, replace the pads onto the protective sheet.
What if I am having a planned induction?
A TENS unit is ideal to use if you are having a planned induction! To allow time for your endorphin levels to rise, begin using your TENS unit one hour before your induction begins!
I am having an Epidural, will a TENS help?
Absolutely! Start the TENS unit as soon as you think you are in labor. A TENS unit is one of the few pain management options for early labor while you’re still at home! Did you know that early labor is two thirds of your labor?
You can use a TENS up until the point you decide you want an Epidural. In fact, using a TENS may delay or eliminate the need for an epidural!
Can I use an TENS machine in water or if I’m considering a water birth?
NO, you cannot use a tens unit in water. If you want to use the shower or birthing tub, remove the unit and pads and dry off well before re-applying the pads and the unit.
I think I'm in labor, when should I start the tens unit?
The earlier the better! This gives a chance for your body to produce more endorphins. It’s most effective when used early in labor to give your body time to respond to the stimulation, which can take about an hour. We suggest to start the tens unit as soon as you think you are in labor
Is a TENS unit FSA/HSA eligable?
Yes, if you are purchasing a TENS unit for personal use.
Are TENS machines safe?
Yes. TENS machines are safe for using during labor. However, do not use before the 37th week of pregnancy. Do not use a tens machine if you suffer from epilepsy or use a pacemaker. If have any doubts whatsoever consult a medical professional.
Rental question - Is return postage included?
Yes, return postage is included. A POSTAGE PAID RETURN LABEL is in the box! Please contact us if lost or damaged and we will email you a label.
Rental question - What if I don’t return the TENS unit?
If the tens unit isn’t received by us by the due back date on your invoice, you will forfeit your deposit. You will now own a tens unit! By the way, tens units can be helpful during the postpartum period and for general use with muscle strains, sore backs etc.
Rental question - Can I get a refund if I have my baby before my TENS unit arrives or I have a C-section?
Unfortunately we do not offer refunds on rental (or for sale units.) Due dates are just an estimate! Birth plans can change and babies can come before your due date. Once the unit is sent to you it takes it out of our inventory. Thank you for your understanding.
