Migraines are a neurological condition and we do not claim otherwise. What Reculix targets is the physical experience of an attack — the trigeminal nerve pathways, vascular pressure, and muscle tension that make a migraine unbearable. It does not stop the neurological process. It meaningfully reduces how much it hurts while it passes. That distinction matters, and we stand behind it.

Can the heat be turned off? Does it work with cold?

Yes, heat is completely optional — turn it off and use compression only. Many users prefer this during intense attacks when the head feels hot and sensitive.


On cooling: building active cold therapy directly into a wearable device is an engineering problem with no elegant solution. True cooling requires the same technology as a refrigerator or air conditioning unit — compressors, refrigerants, and significant power.

The result would be a device that is bulky, loud, and tethered to a power source. For a migraine sufferer who cannot tolerate sound or pressure, that is the opposite of what helps.


Instead, we offer Reculix Ice Plus — a cooling gel mask that freezes in 1 to 2 hours and sits underneath Reculix One.

You get cold compression therapy without the noise, the bulk, or the engineering compromise. If you add Reculix One to your cart, you will see the option to add Reculix Ice Plus at a discount before checkout.

Reculix operates quietly. The airbags inflate and deflate with a soft, low rhythm — not a mechanical buzz or vibration. Sound-sensitive users specifically mention this as one of the reasons they can tolerate it during an active attack when other devices were too disruptive.

Reculix works well for migraines with and without aura, tension headaches, hormonal migraines, stress headaches, eye strain headaches, sinus headaches, postdrome headaches, cervicogenic headaches, and menopausal headaches. For vestibular migraines, cluster headaches, and hemiplegic migraines, results vary more — which is exactly why the 100-day guarantee exists.

Reculix is non-invasive and drug-free — no electrical current, no magnets, no chemicals. However, if you have a VP shunt, brain aneurysm, have undergone DBS surgery, have a cranial neurostimulator, have recently had eye surgery including cataract or glaucoma surgery, or are pregnant, please consult your doctor before use. Your safety comes first.

If Reculix does not deliver the relief you need within 100 days of purchase, contact us at support@reculix.com with your order number. Returns are completely free. You will receive a full refund with no deductions. The guarantee expires 7 days after the 100-day window closes.

Most devices on the market either vibrate or use cheap mechanical rollers that press into your head with fixed, uncontrolled force.

Vibration during a migraine is often the last thing a sufferer can tolerate. Mechanical rollers apply blunt pressure without any ability to adjust to the shape of your head.


Reculix uses airbags. Six of them, positioned precisely over the trigeminal, supraorbital, temporal, and occipital nerve pathways. Airbags inflate and deflate with smooth, rhythmic pressure that conforms to your head — not against it.

The pressure is controlled, consistent, and adjustable. That is not a design detail. It is the reason the relief feels different from anything else you have tried.


No other consumer device targets all four migraine nerve pathways simultaneously with airbag compression and optional heat in one wearable system.

Yes. Tension headaches are caused directly by muscle tightness in the forehead and temples — exactly where Reculix's compression zones sit. For sinus headaches, the combination of compression and heat helps relieve the pressure that builds across the forehead and above the eyes. Many users find it most immediately effective for tension-type pain.
