“It’s a tens unit. Why so expensive?”

If you have any additional questions don’t hesitate to contact Nerivio Cares customer support at: support@Nerivio.com or 1-866-637-4846 M-F 8am-8pm EST. Here is a summary and video that may be helpful to you. Difference between TENS and Nerivio® Standard transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulators (TENS devices) on the market are designed with specific electrical parameters that activate touch fibers. The activation of touch fibers at the site of pain can temporarily inhibit the signaling of pain. That is why a TENS unit is applied to the site of pain. To better illustrate this mechanism, when a person hits their head on something and rubs it to alleviate the pain, they are mechanically activating touch fibers when rubbing to temporarily inhibit the pain. This mechanism is known as the Gate control mechanism of pain inhibition. Nerivio® is a remote electrical neurostimulator (REN) which works by applying an electrical signal to sensory nerves in the arm to activate one of your body’s natural pain regulation mechanisms called Conditioned Pain Modulation (CPM). The peripheral activation of Aδ and C fibers in the arm sends a signal to pain control centers in the lower brain to release pain inhibiting molecules that inhibit migraine pain signals. The electrical parameters of the Nerivio device are specifically designed to activate sensory fibers. TENS devices have different electrical parameters that activate touch fibers. Because of the difference in electrical parameters, the two devices have different mechanisms of action and are not interchangeable. They should only be used according to the directions in their respective labels, under the guidance of your physician. Nerivio Mechanism of Action https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkO2A_g7q4Q

“For the most part, Nerivio gives temporary relief but rarely aborts the attack like medication. If I catch the headache very early, the relief will last for 24 hours. It is hard to catch the attack early because I have daily, chronic migraine. I think Nerivio is a good tool to have in the migraine toolbox but in my particular case, is a conjunctive therapy. 3.5 stars for me but you should definitely I give it a try.”
