Jaideep : BramhAnsh Technologies Private Limited is a leading MedTech Company dedicated to serve the healthcare sector by offering advanced medical devices designed to address conditions such as headaches, anxiety, insomnia, migraines, and various others. The organization is committed to a mission of transforming the healthcare sector through innovative clinical grade wearable medical technologies, with the aim of elevating patient outcomes and enhancing the quality of life on a global scale.
The inspiration for our journey originated in 2015 when I, Jaideep Tiwari, Founder and CEO of BramhAnsh Technologies, was personally diagnosed with an anxiety disorder and required treatment. Rather than succumbing to this challenge, I, along with my friend K. Kartik, Co-founder and COO of BramhAnsh Technologies decided to harness the potential of technology to address mental health issues. With a history of collaboration and shared interests dating back to our college days, we embarked on a mission to establish a company that would leverage technology to provide relief from a wide range of disorders. As emerging young entrepreneurs hailing from a small town in Chhattisgarh, we carried a grand vision.
Our journey officially began in 2017 when we initiated extensive research into the development of a technology that uses sound waves as a method of stimulation to calm down the nervous system. After countless hours of research, dedication, and hard work, we successfully developed the remarkable technology. In 2020, we received a patent for our innovation, which we proudly named “Migraelief.”

IT Voice : BramhAnsh Technologies developed Migraelief. Please explain how this platform works. How is it transforming people suffering from various health disorders?
Jaideep : Migraelief is a groundbreaking wearable device designed for migraine treatment in India. It’s a medically certified device that has undergone clinical validation to assist individuals who have been unable to find relief from their migraine symptoms through conventional treatments.
What sets Migraelief apart is that it offers a drug-free solution for alleviating migraine pain. This CDSCO-registered and ISO-CE-certified device utilizes cutting-edge transducer technology to produce low-frequency sound waves. These waves are efficiently distributed across the head thanks to Migraelief’s unique band design and transducer placement. This design promotes effective neuromodulation by stimulating nerves.
The transducer-generated waves create specific patterns along the band, effectively transmitting these low-frequency waves through cells, tissues, and bones. This stimulation targets the trigeminal and occipital nerves in the brain, triggering a natural relaxation response in the body, thus reducing pain and promoting better sleep. This non-invasive and medication-free approach is particularly beneficial for individuals who face limitations or experience side effects from traditional migraine medications.
The Migraelief device is worn like a headband, positioned at the center of the forehead, and provides a 20-minute course of treatment that effectively reduces migraine pain, headaches, and even induces sleep. The device is conveniently managed via an easy-to-use app, allowing users to customize their treatments and track their migraine episodes.
Migraelief is the world’s first wearable technology to employ sound waves for migraine treatment. With an impressive 82% response rate, it’s transforming the lives of its users by offering rapid and drug-free relief. Both Migraelief sessions and migraine symptoms can be tracked through the Migraelief App, enabling individuals to personalize their treatments and monitor their migraines effectively. The app also features a dedicated migraine record that can be shared with healthcare providers, facilitating better migraine management.
These promising results, with over three-fourths of users experiencing relief and improved sleep, have been instrumental in reducing severe work impairment, ultimately helping users return to their regular routines. Migraelief not only offers treatment but also acts as a preventive measure, effectively reducing both the frequency and intensity of migraines. Clinical Trials Reports support these positive outcomes, indicating a significant reduction in the consumption of migraine medications. Migraelief’s innovative approach significantly enhances the overall quality of life for those living with migraines.
IT Voice : What are the Challenges faced by your company in developing this product?
Jaideep : BramhAnsh Technologies, as a startup, faced notable challenges while developing its product. A significant hurdle was in sourcing fabrication vendors and suppliers for manufacturing components required for the patented Transducer technology. The primary challenge was identifying vendors who were willing to produce these components at a reasonable cost. The issue arose because most vendors typically required bulk orders to initiate any production run. However, as a research-focused company, BramhAnsh Technologies had limited resources and couldn’t justify significant expenditures on sample pieces.
IT Voice : What do you foresee as the future of HealthTech in India?
Jaideep : The future of HealthTech companies in India is promising and dynamic. India’s healthcare sector is rapidly evolving, driven by increased health awareness, and government initiatives to promote digital health solutions. HealthTech companies are positioned to play a pivotal role in addressing the country’s healthcare challenges. Telemedicine, health monitoring devices, electronic health records, and artificial intelligence-powered diagnostic tools are some of the areas where innovation is flourishing. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the adoption of telehealth and remote patient monitoring, making these technologies integral to the healthcare ecosystem. Moreover, the government’s focus on ‘Digital India’ and ‘Make in India’ initiatives creates a favourable environment for health tech startups. However, challenges like data privacy, regulatory compliance, and equitable access need to be addressed. With innovation, adaptability, and strategic partnerships, health tech companies in India have the potential to revolutionize healthcare delivery and improve the overall health and well-being of the population.
