As
the first and only breastpump to simulate a baby’s two-phase feeding
process, the Symphony provides natural, comfortable and
efficient pumping.
It includes a Pumping Program with options for both automatic and
manual switching between pumping
phases, based on moms’ needs. Pumping Programs are stored on a Program
Card, allowing further Pumping Programs to be implemented in the
future by releasing alternate Program Cards as research supports it.
For moms’ convenience, one knob combines vacuum level and the number
of cycles per minute in the expression phase.
Moms can switch between single and double pumping simply by adding or
removing the second Pump Collection Set.
A
specially designed membrane separates Pump Collection Set from pump
mechanism, ensuring unmatched overflow protection without compromising
vacuum capacity.
The LCD Display indicates pumping phase, vacuum level, battery status,
and other handling and service information.
Whisper-quiet; the world’s quietest symphony you are happy not to
hear….
Available in both a standard and a rechargeable-battery version.

Two Phase Feeding in Babies
Research has shown that a baby’s feeding is not a single continuous
action, but rather a two-phase process in which the baby will
initially suckle rapidly to stimulate the mother’s milk ejection
reflex (MER), and induce milk “let-down”. This phase is referred to as
“stimulation”. Once the breast has been sufficiently stimulated, milk
begins flowing and the baby settles into a slower, more relaxed
sucking speed for the actual feeding phase. This phase is called
“expression.”
Two-Phase Pumping Program
The Symphony Breastpump produces such fantastic results and comfort
because it utilizes a program that closely simulates this natural
two-phase feeding pattern. The Two-Phase Pumping Program consists of a
Stimulation/Let-Down Phase and an Expression Phase — just like real
breastfeeding. The following chart illustrates how the Program works,
with some of its benefits listed below:
Stimulation/Let-Down Phase
Rapid
milk ejection reflex
Research-proven fixed cycles per minute
Individually adjustable vacuum for comfort
Expression Phase
Comfort
Flow Zone™ for maximum comfort and efficiency— gentle to the breast
tissue.
Adjustable preset combination of vacuum and cycles per minute.
Supports milk production
