The Basics
About the Device
What is OhmBody?
OhmBody is a non-invasive wearable device that delivers natural, drug-free, hormone-free period relief using gentle neurostimulation. Designed specifically for menstrual wellness, it helps reduce cramps, improve mood, boost focus, and lighten flow.
Who can benefit from OhmBody?
OhmBody is designed for adult individuals who want to take control of their menstrual cycle with a natural, non-hormonal solution. It’s especially helpful for those dealing with uncomfortable periods, heavy bleeding, or cycle-related mood-swings and brain fog.
How does OhmBody work?
OhmBody uses low-frequency mild neurostimulation to branches of the vagus and trigeminal nerves that surface around the ear to activate your body’s natural regulatory systems. This can help decrease pain sensitivity, balance mood swings, and support your nervous system during your menstrual cycle.
What's included in the box?
Your OhmBody Starter Kit includes the battery-powered OhmBody, seven daily-disposable OhmBody Earpieces (for the left ear), an OhmBody Cable to connect the device and earpiece, three AAA batteries, seven alcohol wipes and a Quick Start Guide. You’ll also receive a QR code that links to our online How To video library to help you get started with confidence.
Is OhmBody safe?
Yes. OhmBody is a wellness device built with safety in mind. It’s drug-free, hormone-free, and non-invasive. Always consult your physician before use if you
are pregnant, have a pacemaker, or have specific medical concerns.

- Click: Connect the cable to the OhmBody Earpiece and insert the cable jack into the port located at the top left side of your OhmBody.

How do I turn my OhmBody device on or off?
Turning your OhmBody on or off is easy—just like using your phone.
- To turn it ON: Press and hold the power button for 3–5 seconds. Release the button when you see the OhmBody logo on the screen.
- To turn it OFF: Press and hold the power button again until the screen prompts you. Then press the OK button to confirm shutdown.

How do I turn stimulation on or off—or change the intensity?
Controlling your OhmBody is simple and adjustable, so you can find the level that feels best for your body.
To start or stop stimulation:
- Use the toggle bars on the stimulation screen—there’s one for each electrode (Front and Back).
- Highlight the toggle using the arrow keys and press OK to switch it on or off.
ON: The toggle bar brightens and stimulation will gently ramp up. The bar will fill in to your selected level. If the bar appears empty, press the + button to increase stimulation.
OFF: The toggle bar dims and the stimulation will slowly ramp down to zero over 3 seconds. Your stimulation levels will be saved, so you can easily resume stimulation the next time you’re ready to use OhmBody.
To adjust your stimulation strength:
- Highlight the bar below either electrode and press the + or - buttons to increase or decrease intensity.
Note: If stimulation is OFF, press OK first to turn on stimulation to the electrode. - Increase or decrease the intensity to a level that feels noticeable but comfortable.
Pro tip: You can adjust intensity even when stimulation is off—but to ensure the stimulation will be comfortable, it’s best to make changes with the stimulation toggled on.

How long should I wear the device?
Typical sessions last 1 to 2 hours. Some users wear it once or twice per day, while others prefer longer sessions based on symptom intensity. You can adjust your routine to match your body’s needs.
Can I wear OhmBody in the shower or around water?
OhmBody is designed to support your everyday routine—but it’s not waterproof.
To keep your device safe and working properly, don’t wear it in the shower, while swimming, or in the rain. Also avoid humid environments like saunas or steam rooms, which can affect how well the earpiece stays in place and may shorten its lifespan.
For best results, use your OhmBody in dry, comfortable settings—and store it in a safe, dry spot when you’re not wearing it.
Is OhmBody noticeable when worn?
Not at all. It’s discreet and designed to fit comfortably around the ear with the device tucked in a pocket. Most people wear it while working, studying, or relaxing at home. You can even wear it while participating in sports or other more active functions. OhmBody is silent, lightweight, and easy to conceal.
The Experience
Understanding Stimulation
How soon will I feel relief?
OhmBody goes to work immediately. Our clinical studies show most women feel improvements in their very first session.
What does the stimulation feel like?
You may feel a gentle pulsing or tingling, especially when starting out. Most users find it comfortable, and you can adjust intensity levels for a personalized experience.
If stimulation feels prickly, you may need to lower the stimulation or apply a fresh earpiece. Check the expiration date on the back of the earpiece pouch to ensure your earpiece isn’t expired.
How do I choose the right stimulation level?
Everyone feels stimulation a little differently—and that’s totally normal. Your sensitivity might even shift throughout your cycle or from one day to the next.
Here’s how to find your sweet spot:
- Turn ON the Front electrode.
- Slowly increase the intensity until it feels just a little uncomfortable.
- Then, lower the level one step at a time until it feels noticeable but comfortable.
- Next, repeat steps 1-3 for the Back electrode.
There’s no “right” level. What matters is that you can feel it working—and it feels good to you.
Why does it feel like the stimulation pauses every few minutes?
Great question! OhmBody is designed with a built-in rhythm to help your body get the most from each session.
Here’s what’s happening:
The device follows a gentle cycle—5 minutes ON, 10 seconds OFF. So every few minutes, the stimulation will briefly pause, then ramp back up to your set level. This short break gives your nerves a moment to “reset,” which helps prevent your body from getting too used to the sensation.
Think of it like a quick reset for your system—so the stimulation stays effective and comfortable throughout your session.
What happens after I complete a full cycle of using OhmBody?
OhmBody is designed to support your body throughout your cycle—month after month. Once you complete one cycle, you can continue using it as part of your regular routine for comfort and balance.
