Problem
Migraines affect a significant portion of the population, leading to debilitating pain and associated mood disorders. Current treatment options often involve pharmaceuticals with potential side effects, creating a need for non-invasive, drug-free alternatives for rapid relief.
Solution
Mi-Helper is developing a portable, non-invasive neuromodulation device designed for at-home use to alleviate migraine symptoms. The device delivers a controlled flow of dry, room-temperature air through the nasal passage, inducing local cooling via water evaporation. This process targets nerve bundles associated with migraine pain, offering a drug-free approach to pain management. The device consists of a tabletop unit, a disposable tubeset, and a drying cartridge, enabling self-administration by the patient.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes individuals suffering from migraines seeking a non-pharmaceutical, at-home solution for rapid pain relief.
