Cove presents its data on the efficacy of telemedicine in treating migraines

June 11, 2022

With tens of millions of Americans suffering from migraines, access to care is a major problem. Cove, a telemedicine startup, offers a practical and affordable solution. They deliver evidence-based therapies to patients in need. To prove that their approach works, Cove collects and analyzes vast amounts of data. The study I just presented at the annual scientific meeting of the American Headache Society shows that with Cove underserved minorities obtain excellent outcomes that are equal to those of whites.

Your Brain Has Many Pathways, And TMS Can Now Use Them
A groundbreaking University of Iowa study shows that personalized fMRI-guided TMS can now reach and modulate the deep hippocampus — the brain’s command center for memory, emotion, and migraine — without surgery or heavy medications. By mapping each patient’s unique neural pathways, TMS delivers precise stimulation to surface “control points” that influence deep brain structures. Generic approaches barely work, but individualized targeting produces clear, measurable changes. At our headache clinic, we combine TMS and fMRI to offer this advanced, personalized treatment for migraines, depression, PTSD, anxiety, and more.
