Where do I place the electrodes?

The sticky electrode pads need to be placed in the correct position for maximum pain relief. It is preferable to obtain assistance from either your birthing partner or medical adviser when positioning the pads. 

Please read the following instructions carefully:

1. Clean the skin thoroughly and allow skin to dry before applying the pads.
2. Carefully peel the pads from the plastic backing using your forefinger and thumb. Do not pull on the lead wires. Retain plastic backing and pouch for storage after use.
3. Position the top two pads (connected to the left socket CH1) approximately 4cm either side of the spine and 4-5cm above the imaginary navel line as seen in the diagram.
4. Position the bottom two pads (connected to the right socket CH2) approximately 4cm either side of the spine and 4-5cm below the imaginary navel line as seen in the diagram. Electrodes can be used several times but the number of uses varies according to the condition of the skin.
