Product Information

If you prefer the muscle relaxation benefits of heat when you have a migraine, it’s worth noting that some migraine hats feature temperature technology that can be frozen or warmed up for maximum versatility. Either way, in addition to some kind of temperature technology, you'll want a hat that’s adjustable enough to provide a snug but comfortable fit and can be used in a multitude of ways depending on where you need relief.

There’s no one mask that will work for every type of person with migraine, but the TheraICE Form Fitting Head Gel Ice Cap gets as close as possible to being the best choice for nearly everyone. Finally, we consulted with two neurologists and migraine experts to make sure we knew exactly what to look for when shopping for migraine hats, as well as how they work and who might benefit from using one. Experts we spoke to include: If you have Afro hair, you will need to remove any weaves or braids before trying scalp cooling. These put extra strain on the hair follicles. You will also need to avoid relaxing your hair chemically. Your chemotherapy nurse will have information and instructions about your particular hair type.It’s not adjustable, so there may be a limit to its stretch and comfort if your head is very large.

Once you put the hat on, you’ll immediately feel some gentle compression that takes the pressure off pounding temples. Positioned above your brows, it becomes kind of like an icy beanie; pulled all the way over your eyes, it offers the added benefit of darkness, which can mitigate an aura. But what I love most about the Eggplant is that it really molds to the shape of my head — and stays there, allowing me to position the ice right on my pain points. My aforementioned icy face mask and headband just don’t mold as well and, even worse, they slide around, so their relief is only as good as how still I can sit. (Anyone who has used a bag of, say, frozen peas to soothe a migraine will understand just how important something that molds, stays, and doesn’t leak can be). According to Dr. Natbony, research has shown that temperature therapy (both cold and hot) combined with compression can help reduce migraine pain. While there isn’t much research on migraine hats specifically, there’s no reason to think they can’t work well to provide this kind of relief. That said, migraine hats work well for some people, especially those who find cooling therapy helps them manage their symptoms, but not for others. Kevin shares: "Being in graduate school has added a very challenging layer to my Migraine experience as many of the medications typically prescribed have caused serious cognitive impairment that was interfering with my studies. I am currently on no medication, though I do use ice therapy and supplements to try and decrease my Migraine frequency." The chemotherapy staff will help you feel as comfortable as possible. Things that might help include: If your migraines are severe, you might be offered other things to help, such as learning relaxation techniques and acupuncture.Technically you can use the Huggaroo Soothe Unscented Microwavable Heating Pad for with heat or cold therapy, but we think it stands out from the crowd more when used as a heating pad. Not only does it have a cozy, plush feeling that radiates comfortable heat during use, but it’s also unscented, making it especially helpful for people with migraine who have sensitivity to strong smells during episodes. It can also give some people a headache. Ask your chemotherapy nurse if you can have a mild painkiller to help. Best part: Allsett Health Migraine Hat costs comparatively low and it is available to ship in 24 hours. The allsett health migraine hat is very easy and is great for sinus pressure, Its snug fit provides compression and has a versatile design. If you need longer continuous relief, be sure to store 1 in the freezer, while the other is in use. The migraine hat offers positive compression and cold pressure to alleviate pounding headaches and debilitating migraine symptoms.

We also appreciate that this hat is pretty discreet. It’s not noticeably a migraine hat, so although you can’t pull it down over your eyes, you could leave the house with it on if needed.The hat fits for all, suitable for men, women and kids who suffer from headaches, migraines or facial tension. Also, the hat is made with cutting-edge material and expert-grade gel, it's already cool without even frozen. Most importantly, the i-thera-u migrainehat is extremely comfortable, perfect for headaches, It creates a calm and has a full - coverage design. You probably won’t want to wear a migraine hat once it’s lost its temperature benefits, but Dr. Berk says you can cycle through as many cold treatments as you want. Some people store multiple hats in their freezer so they can rotate them as soon as one loses its cooling effect. As long as the cooling technology isn’t irritating your skin, Dr. Berk says migraine hats are safe to use daily. While Dr. Natbony notes that everyone will have a different preference in terms of style, design, and extra features, there are a few key things you should look for when shopping.
