Nerivio

The app is very easy to use. It takes you through step by step instructions on how to set everything up which is extremely helpful. There is a major design flaw that doesn't help the migraine attack tracking aspect. The device can be used for prevention and acute treatment. The app only asks about about your migraine pain when you start a treatment and for how many hours, not if you are completing a prevention treatment. If you are completing a prevention treatment you may not have pain, therefore the questions are invalid and making the migraine tracker inaccurate. Another design flaw, having to scan the NFC while it's on you it's pretty difficult when it doesn't want to scan all the time. Then, you have to Velcro the band up before the app times out and tells you to scan again because you took too long to start the treatment. There needs to be more wait time between scanning and starting the treatment before the app times out.

I spend 15-20 minutes every time I want to do a treatment trying to connect this thing to my phone. I then want to throw the entire thing across the room, vs staying calm and meditative, which is the state in which one should be for this. For the love of all that is good, if it’s apple or this app, not sure , but it’s more painful than poking my eyeballs with needles. However, I have chronic migraine disease, which means I get 15+/month so the goal is to do this daily. When I do that I think I’m reducing the frequency and intensity, so thank you to the developers. I do the treatment in combination with meditation and visualization, visualizing the migraines permanently being removed from my body. I think it does help. Best of luck to others! 🙏🏻😀❤️

I want to thank you for creating this device. At the time I needed it I was so blessed to know of its existence and that I wouldn’t have to have something similar placed in my brain attached to wires in my buttocks with a five year battery replacement: surgically! Scary stuff for sure. I refused to use narcotics after 20 + years and began my search for help thru many forms of relief. Including acupuncture, chiropractic, medicines, teas, sleep, relaxation music/techniques, food diets/allergens, counseling,etc. I even took to drawing 20cc’s of blood to relieve the pressure/pain. After eleven months of this path I became increasingly agitated with the lack of relief and side effects. I gained 30 pounds from two of the non narcotic medicines , hair loss, problems with my skin versus acne, insomnia, etc. I am 63. the side effects from the Nerivio created electrical impulses to over react in my hands and feet. It would go away eventually. But not the stupid headaches/ migraines. I continued to have rebounding. It was a blessing that you lowered the price for me because I haven’t had insurance for a couple of years. The company I worked for at the time offered it but it complimented the out of state providers and the costs weren’t conducive to practical measures of use here in Utah. So it wasn’t worth the purchase. I wrote all this to say: thank goodness for being here for us. Best Regards, Katherine Dwyer One thing I did want to add; Nerivio is excellent for someone having kidney disorders because with multiple medicines having to go thru your system and being filtered this eradicates that process.
