CEFALY® ENHANCED for Migraine Treatment

Following evidence gathered over the years, several recent technical advances have been made to the CEFALY® device for migraine relief. We now introduce CEFALY® ENHANCED, a new version which is much more efficient than previous models.

Studies, including a recent ACME study, have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of using the new CEFALY® ENHANCED device. Research findings have found the device an effective acute treatment for migraine attacks to relieve headache pain.

The device contains 2 settings:

• Setting 1: an improved acute mode (now 1 hour per session)
• Setting 2: the existing prevention mode (remains at 20 minutes per session)

The previous 3rd setting (sedative effect) has been removed. Both setting 1 and 2 have the sedative effects, allowing the device to focus on managing migraine pain.

Contents

The set includes:

• CEFALY® ENHANCED
• 3 Reuseable Electrodes
• Resealable Electrode Storage Bag
• Instruction Manual
• Charging Dock & USB Cable
• Storage Case

Each electrode can be used multiple times. Additional packs can be purchased directly from Well We Are - A pack of 3 for £23.00.

About the device

The device is a neurostimulator. It is applied to the forehead using a self adhesive electrode. The electrode is positioned bilaterally on the upper branches of the trigeminal nerve.

The device uses electrical impulses that are delivered to the main branch of the trigeminal nerve. The impulses from the device help to prevent and treat pain in the head area during a migraine attack.

This preventative treatment method can replace or considerably reduce the consumption of painkilling medication. The device provides the best efficacy rating compared to oral anti-migraine medication.

As a result, the device can help you to find a better quality of life. No serious side effects have been reported from using the device. However, you may experience a slight tingling sensation while the device works.

What is CEFALY®?

CEFALY® is a non-medication device that is used for the prevention and treatment of migraines. The device offers external trigeminal nerve stimulation (e-TNS) for relieving migraine symptoms during an attack, including common symptoms, such as head pain.

The trigeminal nerve is the largest of 12 cranial nerves in the brain. The nerve is found above our eyes and transmits sensory information, such as pain, from the brain to our sinuses, skin, and mucous. The trigeminal nerve is involved in most migraine attacks.

The device uses transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation to treat migraines. The device uses neurostimulation to send precise micro-impulses to the trigeminal nerve. This helps stimulate nerve endings. This can provide a calming and sedative effect that can reduce migraine attacks.

The device is certified to the ISO medical standard and holds the CE medical mark. The device is FDA approved.

Who can use the CEFALY® device?

The CEFALY® migraine device is for those over 18 years who suffer from frequent or chronic migraine attacks. The device provides an alternative to medication treatments, making it a suitable drug free migraine relief for people with migraines.

Those who experience chronic headaches and migraines may benefit most from the device connected. Those suffering from other types of migraines, such as migraine with aura and menstrual migraine, may also benefit.

Long Term Patient Compliance

Data collected from 14.745 migraine patients using the device between 4 and 19 months reveals long-term compliance of 72.4%. Long-term compliance using the device is much better than oral preventative migraine medication.
