This stimulation prompts the transmission of signals that initiate a descending pain management mechanism known as conditioned pain modulation (CPM) within the brain to stop migraine pain and its related symptoms.

Each treatment lasts 45 minutes and is given every alternate day for prevention, or when a migraine attack begins for acute treatment.

Since 2020, Nerivio has been available by prescription in the US. It was initially used for acute treatment and available as a preventive treatment since April this year.

Theranica CEO and co-founder Alon Ironi said: “We have been waiting for the prevention indication approval, and with that are now preparing for making Nerivio available for people with migraines in Europe starting 2024.
