Migralex is launched

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.

Elismetrep is a promising experimental migraine medication that targets the TRPM8 pathway rather than serotonin or CGRP. Early clinical trials suggest it may offer a new option for patients who do not respond well to current treatments.

New research shows how the brain dynamically regulates excitability in real time—and why this matters for transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) as a treatment for migraine.
