I hope (midwife of the year :) ) Rachel Myr sees this - I think you 
are talking about limpet shells used in Scandinavia, Francoise. 
Rachel helped a mother I was in touch with obtain a pair. This mother 
had persistent soreness which we could not explain, for weeks and 
weeks. The shells seemed to help - but could have been placebo! The 
mum herself was a scientist and knew the power of placebo....and I 
would never knock this power.
