THE FUTURE OF
MIGRAINE TREATMENT
IS HERE
Discover TEMMA, A Drug Free, Revolutionary Solution
For Chronic Migraines
What is TEMMA?
Drug-free. Safe. Long-lasting. Same-day recovery.
TEMMA (Targeted Embolization for Migraine Management) is an innovative, minimally invasive treatment that targets a key migraine pathway inside the skull. Using a tiny soft platinum coil, TEMMA gently seals the middle meningeal artery (MMA) to reduce the signals that trigger chronic migraine.
Why TEMMA Works
Research shows that the dura—a pain-sensitive layer inside the skull—plays a key role in migraine. The MMA (Middle Meningeal Artery) supplies this tissue, and many migraine medications work by decreasing blood flow or inflammation in this exact pathway.
TEMMA provides a long-lasting version of this same idea by safely sealing the MMA, which may help:
-
Reduce migraine frequency
-
Decrease attack severity
-
Lower medication use
-
Improve day-to-day functioning
Backed by Strong Science
Medical research has shown:
​
-
The MMA–dura system plays a central role in migraine pain
-
Most migraine medications act on this same pathway
-
Patients receiving MMA embolization for other reasons report substantial headache improvement
-
Migraine-specific studies show an 80% reduction in headache days.
-
TEMMA brings these insights together into a focused, minimally invasive treatment.
TEMMA Specialists
-
TEMMA is performed by neurointerventional specialists—physicians with advanced training in image-guided procedures involving the blood vessels of the brain and head.
-
These doctors complete medical school, residency in radiology, neurology, or neurosurgery, and then an additional 2–3 year fellowship focused entirely on minimally invasive cerebrovascular treatments.
Unique Expertise
-
The TEMMA procedure itself is based on middle meningeal artery (MMA) embolization, a technique that has been performed thousands of times worldwide for other conditions—most commonly chronic subdural hematomas.
-
Because coil embolization of the MMA is already a well-established, proven procedure with an excellent safety record, neurointerventionalists are uniquely equipped to perform TEMMA safely, efficiently, and with a high degree of precision.
-
Their expertise ensures that patients receive the highest standard of care in a controlled, image-guided environment.
Cost & Insurance
Coverage Details
Insurance coverage for the TEMMA evaluation and related procedures varies by plan, but many patients find that a significant or entire portion of their care is covered, outside of their usual copay or deductible. Before scheduling anything, our team will verify your benefits, review expected coverage, and provide clear, transparent information about any out-of-pocket costs. Payment plans and HSA/FSA options are also available to keep care accessible and affordable.
