Advantages: Reliable service, Easy to use, Good value

Disadvantages: Does not work for everyone - about 80% success rate (I think)

For all three of my pregnancies I hired a TENS machine from Natures Gate.

I found the service I recieved to be excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful. The machine arrived on time. The instructions were clear and comprehensive. The machine seemed to be of good quality and was easy to use. The electrodes (the sticky pads you place on your back through which the electric current travels) were re-usable so I was able to practice with the machine before labour started for real.

I think the TENS machine helped me to take control of my pain in labour. It allowed me to stay at home longer, and only go into hospital when absolutely necessary. In fact with one of my labours I just ended up staying at home!

The prices were very competitive also. I think they started at around £19 for 6 weeks hire.
