Improve your team's productivity through the treatment of menstrual mood and pain symptoms with Samphire's brain stimulation headband.

Nettle

Nettle is a wearable, non-invasive device designed to manage menstrual pain and improve mood symptoms using a brain stimulation method called tDCS (transcranial Direct Current Stimulation). Previously available only in clinical settings, Nettle brings advanced menstrual symptom relief directly to you, at home.

This breakthrough device offers an alternative approach to menstrual pain and PMS-related mood issues, which can be used alongside other wellness practices.

 

 

Nettle has been shown to reduce menstrual pain and improve mood symptoms, supporting users’ comfort and well-being each month.

  • Flexible, wearable headband with integrated electrodes targeting brain areas involved in pain and mood regulation.
  • 67% of users report meaningful improvements in functionality – the ability to go about their day-to-day lives.
  • Clinically validated: significant reductions in menstrual pain (72%) and mood (67%) symptoms shown in trials.
  • Controlled via a user-friendly mobile app, available on Apple and Android platforms.
  • Safe, at-home use: CE-marked Class IIa medical device.

How does it work?

Nettle uses gentle stimulation to help your brain manage pain and mood better. It targets areas known as the motor cortex (M1) and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). These areas play key roles in processing pain and regulating mood, which can often be disrupted during the menstrual cycle.

Nettle works by sending a small, safe electric current to these brain regions, helping the neurons become more active. This increased activity can help relieve menstrual pain and support a balanced mood.

You can use Nettle at home without supervision. The mobile app will guide you through each session, and you can go about your day-to-day life whilst using it, making it easy to fit into your routine.

Each session only takes 20 minutes, and you’ll use it daily for the 5 days leading up to menstruation.
