Soothe

About

A device to relieve menstrual pain through acupressure points

Soothe is a wireless TENS unit that relieves menstrual pain by targeting acupressure points in the lower abdomen and lower back. The device is placed near acupressure points with an adhesive patch and sends targeted electrical impulses to relieve the pain. It can be easily controlled via the mobile application allowing users to adjust the levels to relieve the pain according to her own needs.

Unlike common relief techniques for dysmenorrhea, Soothe does not come with any side effects like building tolerance, focuses on the exact location of the pain and can be easily accessed from anywhere.
