A powerful addition to migraine toolbox
As someone who has battled chronic migraines for 4 decades, I've tried just about everything. I have to say the Headaterm2 has been a surprisingly powerful addition to my migraine-fighting toolbox. For me, the Headaterm2 has significantly reduced the intensity and frequency of my attacks. I use it at the first sign, and often it can stop it in its tracks or, if not stop, at least lessen its severity. After using it initially to stop attacks, I’ve shifted my daily routine to include it as a daily preventive with short, low intensity sessions every morning. I’ve definitely noticed a difference. I appreciate the non-medicated approach. It takes some getting used to. Best advice I read and used was “lean into it.” The first jolt when you activate it still kind of startles me. But I lay down, turn on a relaxing podcast/music and meditate while it does its thing. It works for me. It's easy to use, and the device itself is surprisingly comfortable to wear. The electrodes it comes with have longevity if you prep your skin as instructed before using and take care of them as directed. And the headband that comes with the Headaterm helps further extend the life of the electrodes. This is much appreciated! Pros: * Simple and intuitive design. Read the instruction booklet. It IS easy to use, once you understand how to use it. The Headaterm device runs for 60 minutes. If I want a shorter session, I activate the device and start a timer on my phone so I know when to turn it off. Not gonna lie, sometimes it feels so good I fall into a lull, turn the timer off and just end up completing a full 60-minute session. Its packaging is fantastic. I haven’t taken it anywhere with me. But it does seem to be built to be able to be used on the go with relative ease. Satisfactory Battery Life. I make sure to charge it after every 4-5 uses. I made the mistake early on of waiting until it was low. The reminders during the session that the battery is low are gentle but definitely impacts my ability to “lean into it” and relax while using. So now I’m very proactive about making sure it’s charged on a regular schedule. Based on my experience, the best charging experience is through computer USB connection. Price. I had my eye on both Headaterm and the higher priced device for some time, evaluating and considering if I wanted to try either one. The higher price of the other device gave me considerable pause. The price point on Headaterm made it a safer choice. I'm quite satisfied with my choice. Size/Weight of Unit: Again, compared to reviews of the other higher priced device, Headaterm appeared smaller and lighter – which is important to me. I’ve never used the other device, but I am VERY happy with how Headaterm performs in this area and am not interested in checking out the other device for comparison. Possible Con: Lack of Programmability/Bluetooth Connectivity: Weighing all the options, I personally don’t find this a con. But some people might. I like the ability to manually control my sessions and not have to deal with bluetooth connectivity issues I've read about with the higher priced device. One frustration averted in my mind. Overall: For me, the Headaterm2 isn't my miracle, but it's a powerful tool. Frankly, it’s one of the best I’ve found in years.

Finally, Real Migraine Relief – No Shocks, No App, No Regrets
I’ve been using the Headaterm-2 since April, and it’s been a complete game-changer for my migraines. I took it to my neurologist last week and told him it’s the best device I’ve ever used. His office wrote down all the information to share with other patients—especially those who haven’t had success with expensive TENS units like Cefaly. If you’ve been searching for real, lasting migraine relief without sky-high prices or harsh side effects, this is the device to try. I highly recommend the Headaterm-2. The quality is excellent—it comes in a compact, zippered case and is small and lightweight, unlike bulkier devices that feel heavy or awkward on the forehead. It includes a well-designed headband that holds the device securely in place, even if you lean forward. The band is a bit snug at first, but it does stretch with time and becomes more comfortable. Charging is simple with the included USB-C cord (you’ll need your own charging block, which is pretty standard these days). One of the best features? No app required like Cefaly. You control everything directly from the device—check battery level, increase or decrease intensity—all with easy tap controls while it’s on your forehead. No tech issues, no app crashes, just reliable performance. The instructions are clear, easy to follow, and written in proper English (not poorly translated). It comes with three electrodes, and each one lasts about 10 sessions. I’ve found a little water on the electrode pad works just fine for adhesion if you need it. When it’s time to reorder, you’ll get your electrodes directly from the Canadian company. I highly recommend signing up for their Subscribe & Save program—it saves money, and the electrodes are far more affordable than those from Cefaly. All in all, this device delivers gentle but effective relief. It’s smartly designed, budget-friendly, and—most importantly—it works. After decades of migraines and trying everything else, I finally feel like I have my life back.

Not a complete cure but reduces length of attacks
It's not an immediate cure but without it migraines would go on all night and now they seem to be able to be shut down after a few hours. My kid brings it with her on trips so it must be worth the effort. She's only used it a few times but using an alcohol pad on the forehead seems to be working to extend the life of the electrode. This seems to be an inexpensive alternative to the very expensive brand names.

Dangerous Product - Feels like a chemical burn, not TENS!
eadaTerm-2 Migraine Relief Device (e-TNS) Dangerous Burning Sensation: This device is honestly terrifying. I started on Level 1, and it immediately felt like it was burning my forehead. It wasn’t a "tingle, it felt like my skin was actually being burned. 2. Husband Had It Even Worse: He tried to see if it was just me and moved it up to Level 2, and he had the exact same experience. It burned him badly as well. We had to take it off immediately because the pain from the "treatment" was worse than the migraine itself. 3. Nothing Like Real TENS: I’ve had professional TENS therapy on my neck and shoulders during physical therapy, so I know what electrical stimulation is supposed to feel like. This felt nothing like that. Not even remotely close. I have never felt a burning sensation like this from any other therapeutic device. 4. Makes Migraines Worse: It turns on just fine, but that’s the only thing it does right. It doesn't help with migraine pain at all; in fact, the burning sensation made my head throb even harder. 5. Don't Trust the Reviews: I am convinced all those five star reviews are bought or fake. There is no way people are using this safely. This shouldn't even be on the market. Do yourself a favor and stay far away from this, it’s a waste of money and physically painful to use. This device is a hazard that burns the skin instead of relieving pain; do not buy it.

An elegant, stimulating device that might help battle or prevent your headache
The HeadaTerm-2 external Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation device (that's what e-TNS means) is rather spectacular in both function and design. Not to mention packaging, simplicity, and convenience for what is kind of a technically involved headache solution. I've no idea why it isn't priced higher, like another couple of devices advertised to do the same, or why it doesn't need a prescription. But its affordability and availability put it heads and shoulders above these others. (so to speak) A quick word about headaches, though. Those of us who suffer from them know they are highly varied from person to person, as is the treatment for them. MOH means medication overuse headaches, and being that many chronic headaches/migraines are just that, if this e-TNS treatment works to alleviate your headache at all, that is so helpful because it is not an OTC pain drug or abortive prescription or a preventative prescription. Those all can cause rebounds and continue the MOH cycle. But this device does not cause rebounds. It may not work for everybody, but if it does help you, it's a great tool to have.

Game Changer
I've suffered with migraines for 30 years. This is the first non-medication relief that I've found. For me, it does not stop the migraine, but it interrupts it. When I am wearing it, I do not have the migraine, but when I take it off, the migraine comes back. But what this allows me to do, since I usually get migraines at night, is to finish up whatever I need to do for the evening and to get ready for bed, and then I can take the medication that makes me tired. My doctor recommended this.

My Non-Medicinal “Migraine Killa!”
I periodically endure migraines related to a separate neurological condition. Typically, if not medicinally “caught” before a certain point of no return I’m down for the count with all the debilitating migraine conditions. Enter my use of the HeadaTerm-2, primarily to blunt the development of migraines - without medication. This works well if I am at home and not scheduled for a Zoom call or other interpersonal interaction where an embarrassing explanation may be warranted for why I am wearing technology on my forehead. Only when I am embarrassed to walk around with tech prominently displayed on my forehead do I rely exclusively on medicinal migraine treatment. Although the HeadaTerm-2 can be used preventively, I have not opted yet to use it for that purpose because of the consistent time commitment involved. Anywhere from 20-60 minutes per day, everyday, is recommended for the prevention of migraines. Therefore, I am unable to comment yet on the efficacy of that benefit. However, when I feel a migraine brewing and can privately wear the HeadaTerm-2, I have found it to be an effective non-medicinal means by which to stop the headache’s progression within about 30-45 minutes. Placement - the device’s metal electrodes must be placed a finger width above the eyebrows to provide effective relief. Operation - ensure a full charge, press/hold to turn on, on, single press to adjust each of nine levels, and press/hold to turn off (or auto off - double beep - after one hour). No app involved. The default is 60 minutes of treatment (no ill effects experienced at mid range for that duration). For really stubborn, unrelenting, conditions, I have found that the Headache-Term-2, coupled with over the counter “migraine” meds, amplifies the normal strength of those meds, which more work quicker and more effectively. Because the forehead’s skin must be clean before affixing the (10x reusable) electrodes, this device may have limited practical use for makeup wearers. I have not tried affixing the HeadaTerm-2 over makeup, but I surmise that failure to remove the makeup first lessens the conductivity and effectiveness, and will lessen the reusability of the electrodes. Just keep those likely factors in mind, or find makeup wearers’ reviews to offer possible workaround solutions. I am really thankful for having found the HeadaTerm-2 for the non-medicinal relief that it provides. Perhaps soon I’ll begin using it for its preventative purposes too. I confidently recommend the HeadaTerm-2 as an effective non-medicinal, neuromodulated, “migraine killa” treatment, on its own, or as a powerful supplement that speeds and amplifies the effects of over the counter migraine meds.

So Happy with HeadaTerm 2
There is so much to like about the HeadaTerm 2. For starters I like that the Tens unit is small, I love the strap so that you can still use the electrode and not have to worry about the adhesive being not sticky, and lastly I like that the electrode itself is big. I will definitely be using it a lot to help with my migraine attacks.

Wow!
This device is amazing although I must admit to referring to it as the torture machine haha. I have been using it for just over a week now and using it numerous times a day for chronic migraines. I had no idea my head was that painful until I started to use this and felt the relief. It does say that you can get up to 10 uses from one strip however I have found that making sure my skin is cleaned and clean the strip afterwards, keeps it working fine. I haven't had to change it yet and have used it for quite a few hours. A bit of hand sanitiser does the trick to clean it as long as you are careful. My one gripe is the battery doesn't last long however it would be a much larger unit if it did so I am happy enough. I have noticed that the pain is not nearly as intense now that I have used it for a while so something is working. It doesn't pull so much on the muscles round my eyes and forehead so they are easing off. The box is great to keep everything together and the headband makes sure it stays in place once the stickiness has worn off a bit. No wires means that you can carry on with your day. I do tend to turn it up to what is almost intolerable but after a couple of minutes the pain isn't nearly so bad and I can relax, to a degree, again. If you suffer migraines, I wouldn't hesitate to try this rather remarkable little gadget. Any relief without medication has to be positive although it may not suit everyone. My only query really i,s if it is sold as a medical device, why is there no ability to claim zero tax but it is a Canadian product so perhaps that is the reason.

battery problem
The Heada Term-2 had been purchased last November 2025. In January the device could not be charged anymore. The company stated that they have an improved battery version with enhanced endurance. They confirmed that device is still under their quality warranty. 4th of March I asked again for a replacement shipment. The answer was “please rest assured that the shipment is progressing normally”. Until today the 25th of March no sign of a replacement shipment.

Helpful Migraine and Neuropathy Remedy
The Headaterm 2 was purchased to alleviate occasional migraines, but, more so, to help with unexplained forehead neuropathy or Trigeminal Neuralgia. Initially, the Cefaly device was recommended by a Neurosurgeon; however, after discovering this device at a much lower price and being more compact than the Cefaly, together with the high reviews, I ordered it. Upon receiving the product, I noticed that it was packaged and presented nicely. As long as the forehead is clean, the electrode adheres well, and, after use, wetting it slightly before storage in its packet seems to prolong its life. My package included a few electrodes. More so, the Headaterm device adheres sturdily to the electrode, and I did not find the included headband necessary. Using the Headaterm is comfortable and effective. The appropriate intensity level, adjusted by pushing the button on the device, is obvious, as higher settings feel too intense. Using it even every other day feels effective at reducing my forehead sensations, and preventing severe migraines. This device, or any similar device, does not provide a cure, but it helps, albeit for a reasonable price. Customer service by the manufacturer is prompt, helpful, courteous, and friendly too. As such, I recommend this device to help with migraines and forehead neuropathy, especially over the much more expensive and seemingly cumbersome competition!
