I love so many of these! I'm also finding that I need to eat closer to bedtime and it has improved my sleep and reduced my 3am wake ups. Another tip based on my experience - I painted my bedroom a VERY dark color and it's so nice. When I enter my bedroom it's like my eyes can relax and I'm in my own cozy cave. I felt like blackout curtains weren't enough for me and the dark paint helped immensely. It's hard to describe the relief I feel! My daytime relaxing room is painted in a nice earthy green which I find not to stimulating. I guess what I'm saying here is, think about color and how you feel most comfortable :) Especially if you are light sensitive.
"don't eat late" just isn't for everyone I guess. I love that you mentioned paint. Not gonna lie, painting/wallpaper has been on my heart lately for several rooms in my house. A dark bedroom is such a good idea. Did you do the ceiling too? I'm thinking about doing my office a sort of salmon/coral color, with green plants or maybe accent a wall with a planty wallpaper. I am obsessed with the olive green trend and have been wanting to incorporate it in a main room. What I'm trying to say is YESSSS
@@MommingwithMigraine So the ceiling isn't painted dark but I would prefer it painted! Just having the dark walls helps with the light bouncing around the room but I can imagine having the ceiling dark would be even better. I was thinking about buying a roll of sticky removable wallpaper in a dark color to stick up there and test before committing to all the work of painting. Your office idea sounds amazing! I'm a huge fan of coral and greens :)
that's a good idea... you know there are some really elegant textured wallpapers - it could look NICE on the ceiling to avoid the painting hassle www.pinterest.com/hyggeandwest/wallpapered-ceilings/
Greetings Jen. I have vestibular migraine that was never diagnosed because I also have social anxiety disorder. However, I noticed that managing stress, getting enough sleep, and reducing caffine greatly helped put my migraine symptoms into remission. Interestingly it’s a nervous system disorder and when I have anxiety and ptsd triggered by toxic work environment I end up having a panic attack which starts like a bad trip. Then days later I feel motion or pregnancy sick I believe anxiety disorder and migraines are interrelated. If I can avoid being in situations that induce paranoia and anxiety then I do not get migraines. But I do know the difference between a panic attack and a migraine. Panic attacks are impending doom, worthlessness, feelings of dread and loss of confidence. Migraines are vertigo and motion sickness Even lightheaded feelings.
I use my older version Cefaly dual for acute migraine attacks and it works pretty well. My Neurologist has recently encouraged me to try using it as a preventative every day again. I tried that for a while when I first got it and didn't see a difference, but she wants me to try again and stick with it longer before giving up. Seeing the new Cefaly here, I have questions: Apart from the bluetooth capabilities and CeCe app, do you feel a difference in the way the newer version is working for you? I mean is it stronger or does it have a different sensation? I'm just wondering if it's worth it for me to upgrade. I don't see a big benefit to an upgrade.
I’m looking into it! As someone that barely stays at a functioning level I’m down to try anything. I see the “connected” cefaly and “enhanced” what’s really the difference?
Aww, I'm so sorry you're there. I understand the desperate feeling and hope this device helps you as much as it's helped me. CEFALY Connected is the more advanced version; it Bluetooth connects to the CeCe app so you can track and optimize your treatment, see battery level, etc. They both can do both types of treatments - acute or prevent!
I noticed companies like gammacore will charge you each month like a cell phone. That is such a rip off. I think you should just be able to buy the device.
Gosh yes, sometimes costing thousands per year. YIKES. Completely agree. The CEFALY device is thankfully yours to keep. You only need to replace the electrodes as needed. If you take good care of them they can last 20 uses no problem. They're $25 for a 3 pack, super doable. Wonder if my code MOMMINGWITHMIGRAINE gives a discount on electrodes too?! 😆
Yes I have heard of it! Pretty sure I don't have MCAS... Can't recall if I was formally tested cuz it's been years... but thanks to POTS Care we learned I have something similar - (minor) eosinophil activation.
I know this comment was half a year ago but yeah she does but she has migraines as well, as a comorbid condition. Her CSF leak increases the frequency and severity of her migraines.
@@hannahemcnabb2024 I thought with a csf leak. That IS the cause of the pain : migraines. Like if she truly has a csf leak the pain is because she doesn’t have enough spinal fluid in her head to support her brain. That being the ROOT cause

Hey, did you know that the developer of the new Cefaly is also a Taekwondo teacher ?
I could definitely watch something more in depth on the CEFALY, maybe the science behind how it works? You're so good with the sciencey explanations!
You're so kind. Noted!!

I don’t suffer with chronic migraine but I suffer with ACM, will definitely use some of these tips!

I will speak with my Neurologist about the product.
VIBE CHECK are we yay or neigh 🐴on the antlers 🦌
Yay ❤
Yes cute
Absolutely a yay. Little bit of levity always helps.
Great information! is your code still valid, it won’t work for me, I’m hoping this device will help me
i dropped my old og cefaly in milk and wish they made the old kind. th current ones are too heavy, so they drag the electrode down and off.
Oh man!! I can understand not liking the change. I didnt notice the weight difference personally. Are you laying down all the way? 💜
