My wife and I both suffer from semi regular migraines. If I stay aware of the aura I can usually take meds and stop it before it gets too bad but occasionally they really get away from me. When it gets to that point the only solution is to get in a dark room and cover my eyes. It's best if I can have total silence and minimal odor/touch/taste ... basically sensory deprivation if possible.
I find that the cold helps me. When a full blown migraine gets going it's like my eyes are hot, boiling hot and the pain goes from behind my eye and back through my head.
Taking this out of the freezer and putting it on my eyes helps with that feeling, and blocks the light without suffocating me (unlike my pillow).
The scent is pleasant when I'm feeling well, but warmed is outright overpowering when I have a migraine. If it's cold the scent is less strong and works well. The only time I had trouble was before we started using a freezer bag. It smelled like the freezer and that caused me to feel much worse. I highly recommend storing it in a freezer bag if it's in the freezer because it will absorb odors.
Warmed up I actually like it on my neck. It's a nice shape to wrap around the neck and help relax the muscles.
It's also good for sinus headaches when warm. The scent isn't a problem with those headaches. The warmth makes my sinuses feel more open.
My wife likes to use it warm. Often I'll put it on my eyes out of the freezer till it warms up just because it feels good even without the migraine and after it warms up my wife will microwave it because she enjoys how it feels after it's been heated.
So far the material has held up well and there have been no problems to speak of (other than learning the hard way that it should be kept in a freezer bag).
This works for me, yes! I get horrible sinus headaches for days when the temperature drops. This little mask provides so much relief! My microwave about 15-18 seconds each side. A few times a day helped so much, along with other things, cut my headache down to one day! Other things include hot herbal teas, cough drops with eucalyptus, turmeric capsules, candied ginger...
This is the best purchase I have made in a long time. I suffer from sinus headaches at least 3-4 days of every week. 15-20 minutes with this on heated and I have great relief! The first couple times the smell was hard to get used to but now I barely notice it. Highly recommend.
It's nicely weighted, but the fabric is a little rough and the scent smells odd after a while in the freezer. The shape is ideal for addressing sinus pain as well as migraine pain.
I had a terrible sinus pain. Left in the freezer and used for a good ten minutes. Pressure relieved!
