Wooden acupressure comb for childbirth

𝑾𝒐𝒐𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝒂𝒄𝒖𝒑𝒓𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒖𝒓𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒃

A surprisingly effective tool that you'll be glad to have on hand when the time comes!
The 𝓛𝓪 𝓓𝓸𝓾𝓵𝓪 comb is used in several hospitals and birthing centers in Quebec, and adopted by thousands of doulas worldwide! ♡ 

3 different mantras are now available; 

♡ I am not afraid of the wave, I am the wave

♡ It's not pain, it's power

♡ Each wave brings me closer to my baby

Its dimensions allow for a comfortable and intuitive grip, with the comb's teeth landing directly on the PC8 acupressure point in your palm (located in the center of the palm, between the ring and pinky metacarpals), which helps reduce fatigue and anxiety.

The pain created by the comb's teeth temporarily distracts the brain; the brain will then send a wave of endorphins (much like natural "morphine") to "numb" the intensity of the contractions while it analyzes the origin and severity of the new pain signal caused by the comb's teeth in your palm.
By stimulating an acupressure point for a secondary pain, we combine the benefits of the stimulated acupressure point with the benefits of the endorphins released by our brain.

This tool allows you to be entirely autonomous in managing your contractions; you control the timing, duration, and degree of stimulation.

Additionally, with Dad's hands free, he has the freedom to massage you, rock you, apply other pressure points, or even do a "hip squeeze" (Ask your doula to show him how! 🫶).

Not only is the acupressure comb an incredible tool to have during childbirth, but it's also a fantastic asset during postpartum afterpains!

♡ Made of wood, making this comb a solid and durable tool, as well as a precious keepsake from your childbirth experience

♡ The empowering phrase "𝑱𝒆 𝒏'𝒂𝒊 𝒑𝒂𝒔 𝒑𝒆𝒖𝒓 𝒅𝒆 𝒍𝒂 𝒗𝒂𝒈𝒖𝒆, 𝒋𝒆 𝒔𝒖𝒊𝒔 𝒍𝒂 𝒗𝒂𝒈𝒖𝒆!" ("𝑰 𝒂𝒎 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒂𝒇𝒓𝒂𝒊𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒂𝒗𝒆, 𝑰 𝒂𝒎 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒂𝒗𝒆!") is engraved on each one to encourage you to stay grounded

♡ The comb's teeth are less pointed than standard plastic comb teeth, thus avoiding injury to the palm

♡ Perfect size to be held comfortably in the hand, with the comb's teeth landing exactly in the right place to stimulate the PC8 acupressure point in your palm

♡ Two different tooth sizes for stimulation of varying intensities

𝑻𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒐𝒏𝒊𝒂𝒍𝒔:

''I managed my contractions so well with the comb that I stayed home for a very (too!) long time and ended up giving birth on the bathroom floor (I was supposed to give birth in a hospital but never made it, oops!) Dream birth, thank you!
I should mention that my first 2 births had interminable latent phases and I had an epidural, although I dreamed of a natural birth. For my 3rd birth, I put all possible tools in my toolkit, including your comb, and I am convinced that it made a huge difference during the latent phase! I used it so intensely during my contractions. There's not much more empowering and badass I've done than delivering a baby and placenta on your bathroom floor! Thank you!''

''My comb accompanied me during the fast and intense birth of my 4th. My biggest regret is not having had this WONDERFUL tool during my previous 3 births. I also used it during my afterpains which seemed insurmountable. Magical!''

''I use it daily with the expectant parents I support. A very beautiful object, simple and surprisingly effective, with a beautiful inspiring quote that I never tire of rereading.''

''It was in my bag and when we left for the birthing center, I had difficulty concentrating to stay in my bubble because there was a snowstorm. I remembered it was in my bag, I grabbed it quickly and it never left my side until the delivery of my placenta! It was a great comfort to me.''

''1st time I've used it in 3 births, and I wish I had had it before!''

''Seriously, it's magical... You don't wait for anyone for your pressure points... I used it for baby 3, and now for baby 4 I'll have two from La Doula!''

''It makes such a difference!!''

''A truly beautiful comb! I received it well before the estimated delivery date. It arrived just in time for a home birth I was called to, and the mother ended up asking to keep it as a souvenir because it helped her so much. I quickly ordered a replacement! Great work, and thank you!''

''I used it and will keep it as a souvenir of that powerful and beautiful moment that is childbirth!
I had it in my left hand and my partner was doing acupressure in my right hand, while I was standing in his arms, with music in the dim light. Perfect bubble to manage contractions! I'd want to give birth again!''
