Talking about how this idea came into the founders’ mind that Jaideep and Kartik both studied engineering at SSGI Bhilai (C.G), a small town in Chhattisgarh. Since their college days, they have collaborated and worked on numerous projects together. However, in 2015, Jaideep was diagnosed with anxiety disorder and required treatment. Turning the weakness into strength, the duo decided to explore the potential of technology to create a product that addresses the problem of mental health. In 2017, they began their research to create a technology that uses sound waves as a method of stimulation to calm down the nervous system. So, after lots of research and hard work, they developed this amazing technology and received the patent name in the year 2020. Now, their innovation is named Migraelief.
