Bringing back the Joy – Eliminating the Pain from Motherhood

Being a mother is possibly one of the most divine, wonderful, rewarding and fulfilling experiences in the world. From carrying the baby for nearly nine months in her womb to holding and nursing the baby until it can walk and feed itself is an unmatched feeling. The body of the mother undergoes many changes and stresses while carrying a baby, during childbirth and while nursing the child.

A common complaint

A very frequent problem experienced by both expecting and nursing mothers is back pain. Stress exerted by the foetus in the last few months of pregnancy takes a toll on the mother’s lumbar region. This problem continues after childbirth and also when the mother is nursing the child.
As mothers are often fatigued due to feeding the baby constantly, their bodies do not find the time to heal and relax their strained back muscles. This causes them to constantly suffer from backache and neck pain. Finding a comfortable spot to nurse the baby becomes increasingly difficult in the first few months as the baby is completely dependent on the mother to get fed, and for all the love and affection it needs.

The quick answer

Most mothers decide to pop a pill when the pain becomes unbearable, but with the stress on their backs being constant, painkillers become a need. Constant usage of painkillers or topical applications to numb the pain is harmful and can harm both the mother and the baby with long-term use. Painkillers are often addictive—and even safe ones such as paracetamol can take a toll on our liver if used too often.

The alternatives

Although painkillers can only numb the pain for few hours, some mothers also move to alternative therapies such as yoga, stretching and to using assistive methods that can help them sit and hold the baby in relative comfort. Although these alternative therapies and supportive devices can provide some comfort, most mothers are looking for a powerful, effective, long-lasting method of pain relief that is not just effective—but also good for them and their baby. However, with most painkillers being harmful to our bodies and the baby and assistive devices only being able to provide limited comfort, is there anything that can help?

Hope—now discreet!

What mothers really need are devices that can help their babies get optimal nutrition while ensuring that they can also work on managing back pain. Although this seems impossible, hope is at hand.
Sanrai understood the problems mothers face and brought two revolutionary devices to India. The first device is a revolutionary breast pump from Kitett—the world leader in neonatal care. Kitett’s Breast pumps simulate the way your baby feeds using a patented pumping technology that is gentle. Adapting to your body morphology using the KOLOR Expression Kit, Kitett’s breast pumps ensure that you do not feel any discomfort while pumping. These devices help you build a supply of your milk so your baby can be fed at any time.

Kitett’s breast pumps give mothers the flexibility to have their baby fed by their partner or a caregiver, giving them the much-needed rest that they need to address their postural problems or back pain effectively. Using a breast pump also alleviates any stress or anxiety mothers may have about their baby’s nutritional needs, helping them recover faster.

The second revolutionary device is the WiTouch Pro. Powered by the groundbreaking TENS therapy, the Witouch Pro is a Bluetooth enabled pain management device that is non-invasive, painless, and extremely effective in providing lasting relief from chronic back pain on-the-go.

Designed for the mothers of today, the WiTouch Pro is a discreet, battery-operated wireless device that can be controlled using your smartphone. This device relieves pain using mild electrical pulses that are delivered directly to your skin which stimulate your body’s natural pain relievers called endorphins.
This device can easily be worn while nursing the baby, resting or even when taking a break from your daily routine. WiTouch Pro delivers fast, effective and lasting pain relief when you need it the most.

What is TENS therapy?

TENS or Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation is a pain management regimen that involves the usage of low voltage electricity to stimulate the nerves around the area where the pain is localized. TENS therapy is non-invasive, involves no medication and is extremely effective. Delivered using small electrodes that are attached to your body, TENS therapy relieves pain by stimulating and activating sites in your spinal cord and brain stem that utilize opioid, serotonin, and muscarinic receptors.

In India, innovative medical products distributors like Sanrai Med ensure that expectant and nursing mothers get the comfort and support they need, without the associated side effects of medication. Innovative and world-class products such as the WiTouch Pro and breast pumps from Kitett can help mothers keep back pain at bay, reducing discomfort in a drug-free way.
