What does CEFALY do?
CEFALY relieves migraine pain and reduces the frequency of migraine attacks.
Most migraine attacks involve the trigeminal nerve, the largest and most complex cranial nerve. CEFALY is an external trigeminal nerve stimulation (eTNS) device. It sends tiny electrical impulses through a self-adhesive electrode placed on the forehead to stimulate the trigeminal nerve.
One device. Two settings.
Traitment de CRISE

How to use CEFALY

2. RELAX
Lie back and attach your CEFALY device. Optional: Pair CEFALY Connected with the CeCe app to control and track treatments with your phone.

Que ressent-on avec le CEFALY ?
CEFALY treatment feels like a gentle tingling or vibrating. The sensation might feel a little strange at first, but most people get used to it after a few sessions.
You have full control of the stimulation intensity. When starting an ACUTE or PREVENT treatment session, the stimulation gradually increases. At any time during the first 14 minutes of a session, press the device button once or use the CeCe app to stabilize the intensity at the level you prefer. It should be both comfortable and noticeable.
