Acupuncture Labour Balls
Maia Mum Acupuncture Labour Balls are a natural pain management tool to help you get through the initial stages of labour. The pressure from squeezing a spikey ball into your palm is linked to the gate control pain theory. This is where the nerve endings in your hand send messages to the brain and distract it away from the sensations of your contractions.
Please Note: as this is a wood product, the colour of the grain of each ball will vary.
In our commitment to safety, we strongly encourage you to review the ingredients, instructions, our safety disclaimer, and any special disclaimers prior to making a purchase.
The spikes of the balls press against acupressure points releasing endorphins and creating a distraction and a new focal point for the brain to concentrate on.
