What are the benefits?
Nerivio® is a Drug free Medical Device that utilises Remote Electrical Neuromodulation (REN) to prevent and treat migraine. Clinical trials demonstrate that Nerivio provides consistent relief of pain and associated migraine symptoms. It is safe and well-tolerated with no systemic side effects or concern for medication overuse.
Nerivio is not a TENS unit. Nerivio and TENS units use different mechanism of actions, based on different electrical pulses and different stimulation sites
Nerivio's remote electrical neurostimulation (REN) mechanism is specifically designed to activate conditioned pain modulation, in which stimulation in the upper arm activates nerve endings that in turn activate a natural pain-relieving process in the brainstem, causing a global effect of pain inhibition that affects the original source of migraine pain in the head.
This differs from the mechanism of TENS units, which stimulate local nerves and compete with local pain fibers to block them from working (a mechanism termed gate theory), and thus must be applied at the same location of the pain (i.e., the head, during a migraine attack).
