Maternity TENS Electrodes

Genuine Elle TENS Maternity Electrodes are the replacement pads designed specifically for your labour TENS machine. At 40 x 100mm, they are larger than standard physio pads so they cover the areas of your lower back that carry contraction pain, delivering the gentle current evenly and staying put through a long labour.

Made by Body Clock, the company that developed the world's first obstetric TENS, these are the same genuine electrodes supplied with every Elle TENS machine.

Why genuine maternity electrodes

• Sized for labour — 40 x 100mm rectangles that cover the right area of the lower back, where smaller pads fall short.
• Hypoallergenic, medical-grade gel — chosen to be kind to skin that can be more sensitive in late pregnancy.
• Biocompatibility tested and SGS certified — the material against your skin has been independently assessed.
• Part of an ARTG-listed system — the Elle TENS device and its maternity electrodes are included together on the ARTG (225921).
• Reliable adhesion and even current — made to stay in place and conduct consistently through hours of movement.
• Fresh and hygienic — supplied new so adhesion and conductivity are reliable from the first contraction.

When to replace your electrodes

Replace your pads when they no longer stick firmly on clean, dry skin, when the sensation feels weaker or uneven, or when the gel looks dry or worn. For labour, always begin with a fresh set. For a full guide, see how to care for, clean and replace your TENS electrodes.

Designed to work together

A TENS machine and its electrodes are made to work as one system. Using the genuine maternity electrodes gives you the comfort, adhesion and even current your Elle TENS was designed to deliver, and keeps your warranty and cover intact.
