The Labour Comb

Why Mums Love The Labour Comb:

✓ Simple, drug-free pain relief during labour contractions
✓ Uses Gate Control Theory to block pain signals naturally
✓ Stimulates acupressure points to trigger endorphin release
✓ Works similarly to TENS machines & sterile water injections
✓ Small & lightweight — essential for your labour bag
✓ Easy to use — just grip during contractions & breathe

How To Use: At the peak of each contraction, grip the comb in your palm on the acupressure point. Combined with calm breathing, the sensation travels along nerve pathways to compete with contraction pain — naturally reducing its intensity.

The science: Your brain struggles to process two sensations simultaneously. The comb's gentle pressure diverts pain signals, releasing endorphins that help you through each surge.
