Can a TENS machine be used to alleviate contractions during pregnancy?

Yes, a TENS machine can be used to help relieve contractions during pregnancy, although it is recommended to do so under medical supervision. Studies have shown that TENS can be effective in reducing lower back pain and providing some relief during labor. It is important to note that TENS does not have any effect on blood pressure.
