Migraine devices are offering an alternative solution to the standard migraine treatment, with technology that brings affordable, low side-effect and drug free therapies to combat pain and related symptoms of a migraine attack. What is most notable is some migraine devices, including Nerivio, have proven to be as effective and safe as traditional medications, opening the door for a new future of migraine treatment. Not all devices are the same of course. Different devices have unique qualities of evidence-based clinical data, and the comfort level varies on the body. It is best to consult with the physician about the anticipated efficacy of each device.
Certain migraine devices also bring a unique added value to the therapeutic space: data. With life in the 21st Century revolving around technology, migraine devices that connect to smartphone applications, such as Nerivio, can help active users keep track of and better manage their migraine episodes by adding an additional layer of information. Smartphone applications include migraine diaries and harness the power of AI to develop personal analytics that can easily be shared with care teams to inform treatment plans and improve treatment outcomes. Additionally, unlike migraine medications that are often administered with broad dosages, users of therapeutic devices can control the strength of each migraine treatment to find one that suits best with their tolerance levels.
