Tempe, Arizona Patent of the Year – 2024/2025
NOCIRA LLC has been awarded the 2024/2025 Patent of the Year for its innovative approach to non-invasive migraine treatment. Their invention, detailed in U.S. Patent No. 11859606, titled ‘Magnetically driven pressure generator’, utilizes a magnetically driven pressure generator to deliver precise air pulses into the ear canal.
This device features a housing, a flexible membrane, and two magnetic force generators. By oscillating the membrane, it alters the chamber’s volume, thereby modulating pressure. The controlled air pulses are designed to stimulate pressure-sensitive neurons in the ear, aiming to reset pain pathways in the brain.
Unlike traditional migraine treatments that rely on medication, Nocira’s technology offers a drug-free alternative. The device’s precise control over air pressure allows for personalized therapy, potentially reducing side effects associated with pharmaceuticals.
Nocira’s commitment to innovation is evident in its expanding patent portfolio, which includes recent grants in the United States, Europe, and Japan. These patents focus on personalizing migraine treatments based on individual symptoms, highlighting the company’s dedication to adaptive healthcare solutions.
With this patented technology, Nocira aims to transform migraine management, offering patients a non-invasive, personalized, and effective treatment option.
