By squeezing the Birth Comb into the palm or the base of your fingers, you can stimulate specific acupressure points that help alleviate the pain of contractions. This method provides a natural, non-invasive way to manage pain and promote a sense of control during labour. Safe and Effective Design The Birth Comb is not only practical but also safe to use. Consequently, its design features rounded teeth to prevent injuries, allowing for secure and confident use. “I am safe, I am strong” is etched onto the comb, serving as a powerful mantra to boost your mental strength and focus during childbirth.
