A simple, evidence based tool designed to support you through each wave of labour.

The birth comb works using the gate control theory of pain. When you grip the comb during a contraction, the pressure in your hand activates nerve signals that compete with pain signals travelling to the brain. This can help reduce how intense contractions feel by giving your nervous system another strong sensation to focus on.

Many mothers find that holding a birth comb helps them stay grounded, focused and in control, supporting calm breathing and steady rhythm through each contraction.

Small, simple and easy to hold, the birth comb can become a reassuring tool throughout your labour journey.
