How SphenoCath Works
SphenoCath is a device that delivers medication over the sphenopalatine ganglion. The sphenopalatine ganglion is a collection of nerves located in the back of the nose and is responsible for a majority of frontal, temporal and some parietal lobe headaches.
Nerve impulses in this area are responsible for causing the feeling of pain from migraines, cluster headaches and trigeminal neuralgia pain. Applying medication to the area effectively blocks the feeling of pain.
The treatment can last three-six months, giving patients lives free of migraine, cluster headache and trigeminal neuralgia pain and the ability to work and enjoy daily activities, friends and family. Repeat treatments, as needed, provide ongoing pain relief from migraines, ocular migraines, cluster headaches and trigeminal neuralgia pain.
What to Expect
The procedure takes about 10 minutes, but you will be in the room for about 30 minutes
We will place a catheter in your nose and watch under fluoroscopy (live imaging) to be certain the soft tip of the catheter is in the correct location
We then drip a numbing medication into the area. This numbing medication ‘resets’ your pain receptors and stops the pain caused by migraines, ocular migraines, cluster headaches or trigeminal neuralgia
You will lay flat for about five-10 minutes after the procedure
You may experience dizziness or a headache, which usually goes away within 24 hours
Patient Story: "It is so worth it."
Rebecca, one of the first patients to receive the SphenoCath treatment for her migraines, shares her experience.
“I had no idea of the constant pain I was carrying around daily in my head until it was GONE. The day I came in for the treatment, I had a migraine. After the procedure, my migraine was gone. The treatment is not a cure, and will need to be repeated over time but it is so worth it. I have my life back."
