Continuing day to day life

By Rachael M., Cleveland, OH, Verified Reviewer

Before using Livia there would be days that I would have to call out of work/school. I would spend the days in bed waiting for pain meds to kick in that never felt like they were really working or having to watch the clock to know exactly when I could take more. With my Livia, I'm able to continue with my day to day life without having to worry about taking pain meds and relying strictly on those.

Length of Use: 2+ years

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

Size/ability to hide

How quick it begins to work

Able to use while doing other things

Doesn't work 100% of the time, sometimes I need pain meds in addition

Overall great product

By Brittany C., Peoria, AZ, Verified Reviewer

I truly recommend Livia. I have severe periods and Livia seems to be the only thing that keeps my cramps under control. When ibuprofen, Tylenol, and other medications won't touch it, Livia does. Although shipping did take a very long time, it is worth the wait. My only complaint was my cord shorted out and I needed to replace it after 1ish year of use. Other than that, I've had no issues. The battery lasts a long time, it's comfortable to wear, and conceals itself fairly easily under whatever you wear. Overall, it is a great product!

Length of Use: 2+ years

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

Pain relief

Easy

Long battery life

I like it

By Tamara R., Germany, Verified Reviewer

It helps me with my period pain and also my back pain, I highly recommend this product.

Because of the slim design, you do not even notice it when you wear it with the clip on your jeans.

Also, the skins are buyable in various colors, I like that!

My new pain reliever

By Melissa A., New Jersey, Verified Reviewer

I was always that person that would take so many pain relievers for my cramps. I get them pretty bad sometimes but Livia takes place of those pain relievers! I didn’t understand how it would work but I was so desperate to try anything and I’m glad I did. I can easily fall asleep and go about my day when I’m cramping. It’s safe and easy to use and I always recommend it to my family and friends!

Length of Use: 2+ years

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

Effective

Pain-free

Easy to use

Short charging cable

Helps somewhat

By Dianna C., California, Verified Reviewer

I have super bad period pains. This helps it, it's not a complete solution, but it helps distract me at least! I have to turn it up super high for it to do anything, and then I can feel the pulses, but the pulses are better than the pain.

Length of Use: 1–2 years

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

Size

Good company

It's cute

Price

Cords aren't long enough

Just an expensive tens unit

Couldn’t get through my periods without it!

By Garnet J., La Mirada, CA, Verified Reviewer

I have endometriosis, so naturally, my cramps get pretty bad. Before Livia, it was hard to go to work or even remain standing up straight while I had cramps. It’s a lifesaver! I love that you can choose the intensity of the machine depending on the degree of pain as well. It provides excellent relief to the pain that OTC pills don’t even touch.

Length of Use: 2+ years

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

My savior

By Kärt R., Estonia, Verified Reviewer

Absolutely needed when you have unbearable cramps. The pain I am in on my first day of period is so bad I usually cannot function at all and I have to take that day off. But now with Livia, I can actually function on those days, thanks to it I was able to go to important business meetings and to my master's degree diploma ceremony. And nobody even knew I had a device on me that made it possible for me to stand up on that day and not to cry, scream, and vomit from the pain.

Length of Use: 1–2 years

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

Help relieve pain

Small and unnoticeable

Easy to use

The gel makes skin itch sometimes if on for too long

The wire is so delicate it may stop from working easily

Money well spent

By Olga Ś., Poland, Verified Reviewer

It was money well spent. I would go to the gynecologist to look for help with period pains but they couldn’t alleviate my pain. I used to take a lot more painkillers before purchasing Livia. I have been using it for over 2 years now and I still get the best results.

Length of Use: 2+ years

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

Easy to use

Alleviates pain

Cute

Short battery life
