TI  - Intranasal Infrared Light and Migraine: Case Report I
JO  - Neurology and Neuroscience
VL  - 7
IS  - 1
AB  - A case report is presented of a 79-year-old female who experienced Migraines intermittently since age
14. As noted in the report, she experienced immediate relief after using a semiconductor light-emitting
diode (LED): Wavelength: 810 nm; Energy output: 10 mW/cm²; Pulse mode: 10 Hz at 50% duty cycle;
Exposure: upwards of 25 minutes in each nostril. The intranasal procedure offers a distinct advantage
by directing the convex light beam emitted by a single light source into the nasal cavity. The light beam
from the LED illuminates the underside of the brain, including the midbrain, which specifically acts as a
pain-modulating center deeply involved in Migraine generation.
