what is tap?

tap is a wearable TENS device for pelvic pain.

how does it work?

TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) works by sending small electrical pulses through the skin and into the underlying nerves. This can help to reduce pain signals from being transmitted to the brain and de-intensify the perception of pain. Additionally, tap. can stimulate the body’s natural production of endorphins, which are the body’s own pain-relieving chemicals.

By using tap., women may experience relief from period pain without the need for medication. Best when applied to the area of pain when the pain starts.

Both high-frequency and low-frequency TENS can be effective for combatting period pain. Some people may prefer one over the other or find that a combination of both works best for them.

The latest research has shown that TENS therapy can help reduce pain and inflammation by stimulating the nerves that send pain signals to the brain. Tap. provides targeted and customisable relief by utilising five different modes (high & low frequency) and customisable sticky pad options for maximum effectiveness.

  • “TENS is a noninvasive, inexpensive, portable method with minimal risks and a few contraindications…it can be self-administered on a daily basis during everyday activities.”

    (Elboim-Gabyzon & Kalichman, 2020)

  • “Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) of the tibial nerve is a non-invasive, safe, low-cost, easy-to-apply method, with good adherence among patients, which helps to reduce symptoms of urgency, incontinence, daily urinary frequency, and nocturia.”

    (Pierre et al., 2021)

  • “The TENS device tested represents a well-tolerated, rapidly and lastingly effective non-pharmacological analgesic solution, capable of replacing or being combined with analgesics in the management of PD (Primary Dysmenorrhea).”
