Using your Obi TENS

a) You are now ready to start using your Obi TENS.

Switch the unit on by pressing the on/off

button. The Obi TENS will always start up in

BURST mode.

b) Begin by pressing the intensity Up key. Each

time you press this key, a small ‘half-moon’

shape will appear on the screen increasing in

number and size as the intensity is increased.

You will begin to feel a pulsating sensation

which will burst in time with the ‘half-moon’

shape as shown on the LCD. You will feel this

sensation in both sets of pads.

c) BURST (use between contractions): This is the

first mode that you will use.

It feels like a bursting, tingling sensation i.e.

the pulses are off and on periodically. This

mode will help to promote those all important

natural pain-killing chemicals known as

‘endorphins’ and ‘encephalins’.

d) BOOST (use during contractions): When

experiencing a contraction, simply press the

‘BOOST’ button. The Obi TENS will then switch

automatically into the BOOST mode for that

extra surge of power required to combat the

pain during contractions. This will feel like a

continuous sensation.

e ) Once the contraction has passed, simply press

the ‘boost’ button. The Obi TENS will return to

the original BURST mode. Continue this cycle

during your early stages of labour.

Before first use of the Obi TENS, please

familiarise yourself with the precautions and

contraindications contained on page 4.
