Frequently Asked Questions
Using Maternity TENS
How early can the Maternity TENS be used?
At the first sign of any contractions.
Should I practice using the Maternity TENS unit?
You are encouraged to try out the unit when it arrives, so that you are familiar with how it works and the sensation it produces. Remember, the pads are reuseable up to 30 times, as long as you store them correctly.
Can the Maternity TENS unit be lent to a friend?
No, the Maternity TENS units are for single patient use, for specific reasons of hygiene
Can I use Maternity TENS if I am having a caesarean?
Yes, the unit can be used during labour. It can also help with discomfort after the birth by placing the pads next to the scar on Programme A or B.

Why did my Maternity TENS rental unit arrive early?
Rental units are usually sent to arrive at 37 weeks. Around Christmas and some other times, we may send units a little earlier to ensure they arrive in good time. If the unit arrives early, you will not have to return it any earlier.
Cancellation of a rental reservation
Can I cancel my order?
If you cancel a Maternity TENS rental before it is sent out, then a full refund will be given.
If you cancel after the unit has been despatched then no refund can be given, even if it has not been used. This is for reasons of hygiene. Every unit, whether it has been used or not, will be refurbished on its return.
