"The device is called a single-pulse magnetic stimulation device. It is now FDA approved for the as-needed for acute attacks, as well as the preventative treatment of migraine attacks," said Dr. Amaal Starling, Mayo Clinic.
Dr. Stirling says it transmits a signal to the brain to lower brain sensitivity.
"Place it on the back of the head just like that and then you push these two buttons. And that administers a pulse," said Dr. Sterling.
The STMS device is available by prescription only.
It was cleared by the FDA last fall.
