Seasons of Mama - Reflexology Labour & Birth Comb

Reflexology Comb for Labour + Birth in pearl or tortoise shell made from eco friendly cellulose acetate (highly biodegradable) and imprinted with the signature Seasons of Mama mantra

~ Open, Soften, Surrender ~

This is what we refer to as a “Secret Weapon” for labour/birth; an acupressure tool loved by Midwives, Doulas and of course, Mamas alike. She earns bonus points for being waterproof too, unlike timber.

This natural and very effective pain management tool helps women in labour by activating Gate Control Theory. This asserts that when painful stimuli (such as a contraction) is felt at the same time as non-painful stimuli (such as with this “handy” acupressure tool - pun definitely intended) pain signals are then limited from reaching the brain.

Also makes a wonderful tool for caesarean births as a tool for stress reduction and distraction.

What's more, she is multi purpose so becomes a function hair comb and storytelling/keepsake piece of your baby's birth

Other awesome things to know about these best selling combs:

• Long in length so you can squeeze with one or two hands

• Rounded teeth to prevent skin trauma (if you choose sharp tooth comb, please be cautious)

• Works amazing on its own or in combination with a Tens machine (dream team)

• If mama wishes to labour/birth in water, she will need to remove her tens but thankfully will have this tool as a constant support during contractions

• Squeeze this comb instead of your partner/support persons hand which frees them up to tend to other areas (such as your back for a comforting massage)

• Completely non-plastic

• Can also be used for light touch massage on your back (which a mama recently discovered - genius!)
