    Lívia: the device that promises to end your menstrual cramps

    Every woman knows how hard period cramps can be. More than that, it`s inconvenient and painful. Lacking in energy is common and we don’t want to leave the bed.

    I have cramps every time I menstruate, which doesn`t happen every month because of the contraceptive I currently take. But it was like this, with pains every month, that I spent several years of my life. The first two days of my period were pretty hard. Afterward, it was getting better. And there’s no way to rest, life is still full of commitments and responsibilities regardless of your pain!

    Drugs that promise to stop cramps are tones in pharmacies, but I’ve particularly never found one that really makes difference. It helps, of course, but just a little, you know?

    Thinking about the women`s reality, a group of professionals decided to put the idea of an innovative product into a crowdfunding platform for raising funds to developed it on a large scale.

    The results? It worked!

    Your name? Lívia (love the name lol)

    .

    -How does it Works?

    Basically, it works like a “mini” tens. Anyone who has ever had physiotherapy should have tried this machine that emits electric impulses to block the sensation of pain. In fact, the Lívia process is external and doesn’t intervene with your cycle or your hormonal balance.

    -Are there any side effects?

    None! Lívia can be used almost without restrictions. The ONLY restriction is for women with a heart pacemaker. Anyone who has nocturnal cramps may even sleep with it, if you prefer.

    -How can i use it?

    Is easy to use. First, you stuck the electrodes to your lower abdomen. Then, connected the cable to the device. Adjust the intensity and that’s it!

    Remember that Livia works with rechargeable batteries that last 15 hours. Good, right?

    -Where to buy? How much? What if it doesn`t work for me?

    You can buy it on the brand’s website and on Amazon. It costs around $150.

    Buying on Lívia’s website, you have 120 days guaranteed for testing.

    I thought the idea was really cool. Today, we know that taking medicine is not a trivial thing. The side effects are there, and many of them are still unknown.

    I’m so excited to test!

    Love,
