The Birth Comb

The Birth Comb is a simple yet powerful tool designed to support women through labour and birth. By pressing the teeth of the comb into the palm, the body’s natural pain-gate response is activated, helping reduce the intensity of contractions and redirecting sensations. This technique has been used by midwives and doulas worldwide as a natural, drug-free comfort measure.

Lightweight and compact, The Birth Comb fits easily into your hospital bag or birth kit and can be used at home, in hospital, or during a water birth. Many women find it especially helpful in the early and active stages of labour, when every little coping strategy makes a difference.

Crafted with smooth, durable materials, The Birth Comb is comfortable to hold, reusable, and designed to be a trusted support tool for birth. Whether paired with The Birth Sling, used alongside breathing techniques, or simply held in your hand during surges, this small tool offers big support when it matters most.
