Thank you for sharing your experience! If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to call Nerivio Cares at 1-937-637-4846 Monday-Friday 8am-8pm EST. In the meantime, here are some additional tips that may help: If your migraine headache is not aborted 30 minutes following treatment, you may administer additional treatments. There is no restriction on how often the device can be used though we have no data on daily or long-term use. Please consult your healthcare provider to discuss long-term use. Setting Intensity: Since each migraine attack is different, there is no one right setting. The intensity should be strong, but never painful, and should be set within the first few minutes of treatment.    The + and – buttons on your phone screen allow you to set the level, and just after you start a treatment, you can repeatedly press the “plus” button to increase intensity until the sensation feels strong but not uncomfortable.  During clinical trials, the most effective treatment was obtained with intensities over 20% and with averages between 25 and 35%. If you do not get to 20%, however, do not worry, as long as it feels strong. Although the intensity may feel as if it gets weaker during treatment; this is normal and is just your body adjusting to the sensation; there is no need to increase the intensity further.

We are sorry to hear Nerivio hasn’t worked for you yet. We encourage you to consider contacting Nerivio Cares customer support so one of our Nerivio Cares representatives will be able to help you get the most effective treatment with your device before you give up. Please contact us at support@Nerivio.com or call us at 866-637-4846, M-F 8am-8pm EST. To address your concern about our mechanism of action, here is a description below: 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

“It seems to move the headache and to concentrate it rather than relieving it. Also, the app doesn't work on my phone (Galaxy 7). It worked the first time, but since then it won't connect, so I have to use my husband's phone. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail. Finally, I would like to use the visualization routine, but the rhythmic and repetitive music at the end of it makes me very tense. The music at the beginning is fine, but then it becomes faster and minimalistic. I have to shut it down or use it without sound.”
