Does the TENS work for birth?

It feels like the best kept secret in birthing, but TENS really can make all the difference for your birth experience.

By blocking pain signals to the brain our TENS will help you stay calmer for longer, reducing the need for pharmaceutical interventions and the associated risks. Research shows that TENS helps women to have less pain, and feel more in control, leading to empowered birth experiences.

We're on a mission to spread the word and make this technology more accessible, and in just a few years thousands of Australian women have experienced the difference this little device can make.

But don't take our word for it!

You can read the dozens of birth stories shared by our lovely customers about how using a TENS transformed their birth stories, from VBACs to healing natural births after previous birth trauma, to accidental home births - we've been there for them all!

Tens review

Thanks so much Bliss Birth for the tens machine! I gave birth on the 4th of April 2024 and the tens was such a huge help. I solely used the tens machine for support during this labour and it definitely helped lead me to a beautiful water birth!

For your hands only!

During an intense contraction my husband tried to help by pushing the boost button for me… but he pressed the power button instead, turning the machine off.
The murderous feeling of rage that overcame me at that moment probably best summarises how much the Tens was helping work through the pain. Would certainly recommend it!!

Super easy hire, effective pain relief

I loved that we were given a prepaid parcel to send back the Tens machine. It meant my partner could drop it off at our local post office and I didn’t need to leave the house. I’ve used a TENS machine for both of my two children and it’s really helped to distract from the pain of contractions. Would highly recommend!

Amazing

I absolutely loved using the Bliss Birth TENS machine for my second labour. I didn’t use it for my first and definitely noticed the difference. This time around I was able to labour at home for much longer, before birthing within two hours of arrival at hospital without pain relief/intervention. The contraction timing function made it so easy to keep track and communicate with my midwife. Cannot recommend it enough!

Must have for labour

This is the second time I’ve hired a TENS from bliss birth for labour. This one saw me through an induced labour with no epidural and is a must have item. The hiring process is super straightforward and stress free. 100% recommend.

A great helping hand

The TENS machine I hired from Bliss Birth helped me get through early labour pain at home and at the hospital prior to pain relief being administered. It provided a good distraction during contractions & also helped when I had back pain a week or so before going into labour. The delivery of the TENS was quick, so I received it in time even though I ordered late (on a friends recommendation). The returns process was easy too.

Couldn’t recommend enough! 💫

I always hoped for a natural birth but understood my baby would choose the way they wanted to enter the world. The TENS machine made this possible for me!
The process for hire was seamless and arrived on time with two option on length of hire. Thank you for helping me get through my dream labour!

Unmedicated second birth using the Bliss Birth Tens Machine

Firstly the hire process was super easy and arrived well within time. I started using the Tens as soon as I felt my first contractions. While it didn’t take the pain away it definitely distracted me from it. I was able to breathe through my contractions for the whole labour before taking it off and birthing my baby into the water. I achieved the intervention free, unmedicated birth of my dreams. Felt so empowering. Thank you!

Great service!

I was really happy with my TENS hire through Bliss Birth. The service was wonderful, and it was super easier to return the machine after the birth of our son. Highly recommend!

Excellent product and service!

The machine came quickly and was packed up in a nice bag with clear instructions. If it wasn’t for this machine I don’t know if I’d of managed to do a natural birth. Really helped distract from the contractions!

24 hours unmedicated with TENS

Out of my 29 hour labour, 24 of those hours were unmedicated and all my pain was managed with the TENS machine. The machine became a comfort to help me through each contraction, taking the severe edge off the pain. I did end up with an epidural, oxytocin drip and antibiotics when the labour ticked over the 24 hour mark to minimise risk of infection that comes with a longer labour. But the TENS machine got my so far and I cannot recommend it highly enough for birth!

Amazing

Fantastic to use at home!

Fabulous, would 100% recommend

If in doubt, just grab one anyway! After mixed reviews about laboring with a tens machine I was on the fence about getting one. It wasn’t until my midwife strongly encouraged me to that I came across Bliss Birth & decided to rent one “just in case” & i’m so glad I did! It arrived on time, was beautifully packaged (like new, even my midwife was impressed at the quality!) & did the job beautifully! I wouldn’t labour without one & will 100% be renting a tens machine again through Bliss Birth for my next labours & will encourage my friends and family to do the same when the time comes. Thank you! ☺️

Such a convenient service.

Love this service, having the TENS delivered and being able to just pop it back in the post makes it such an easy and convenient service! Recommend to all my pals who want to hire a TENS.

Lovely product

I used the comb through the early stages and on the way to hospital. Whether it helped reduce pain I can’t say, but it gave me something else to focus on, and while contractions came fast in the car it was certainly helpful. I’d use it again.

Wonderful service and fabulous tool for labour

It was so straightforward to hire and return the TENS machine. A fully addressed return satchel was included along with spare electrodes. The TENS machine was absolutely brilliant in labour as well. I particularly appreciated the boost feature! I used the TENS machine and gas, and my labour was fast and intense but very manageable. Highly recommend!
