Relief for Chronic Migraine Starts Here
The US Migraine Procedure — a surgical option designed to reduce migraine pain.
The US Migraine Procedure is a targeted, minimally invasive surgery designed to calm the nerves that trigger chronic migraine pain. For many patients, it offers the possibility of fewer and less severe migraines — helping restore confidence in daily life.
What Is the US Migraine Procedure?
The US Migraine Procedure is a minimally invasive surgical option for individuals living with chronic migraine. Small leads are placed near the nerves in the forehead and back of the head that are linked to migraine pain. By gently stimulating these nerves, the procedure helps reduce the frequency and severity of attacks.
Leads are placed near the forehead and back of the head to help disrupt migraine pain signals.
How the Procedure Works
Your treatment journey is designed to be safe, step-by-step, and supported by our care team.
Trial Phase
Temporary leads are placed to test your response to therapy.
Permanent Placement
If the trial is successful, a permanent system is placed for long-term therapy.
Simple Control
Manage settings easily with a phone app or handheld device, always within physician guidance.
The Trial Procedure
Before moving forward with a permanent implant, patients typically begin with a short trial. During this phase, temporary leads are placed and connected to an external device for several days. The goal is to evaluate how much relief you experience and whether the procedure is the right next step for you.
Short-Term Test – Usually lasts about a week.
Minimally Invasive – Leads are placed through small incisions and removed at the end of the trial.
Decision Support – You and your physician review the results together before deciding on permanent implantation.
Simple Control at Your Fingertips
Patients receive a small controller app that allows them to adjust their therapy settings as recommended by their physician. This gives you flexibility in managing your migraine care while staying connected to your medical team for guidance and support.
