Have you tried TENs? DocJen and Dr. Dom dive into Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation. They dive into how it affects the body to reduce pain in the short-term, potential contraindications, and critically analyze the research that has been done on TENs. Finally, they discuss its use during labour and how it can facilitate pain management temporarily. Let's dive into all things TENs!
