Face ice Pack for Jaw, Head and Chin, Adjustable Hot and Cold Wrap for Wisdom Teeth and TMJ Pain Relief

I've used these for years now (at least five years), and I feel like they've saved my life or at least my sanity. I suffer from chronic migraines that stem from a bad neck. Originally these were great to wear on my head, like a crown or over the eye affected by the migraine. The cold numbs it, and it got me through some tough nights working during graduate school. But then, I realized my neck was getting worse. It's to the point that I can't work out anymore or my neck will trigger a migraine. So, I've started wearing them around my neck while working out and then another one for after (thank you for offering the Velcro case, so I can actually wear it). It's really the best cure; medicine doesn't even help this much.

These are my favorite gel packs for a number of reasons: first, they get really cold in the freezer after a few hours and retain the coldness for around half an hour, and two: they don't have any strange smell like some of the flocked ones have. I use these with a washcloth or a piece of soft fabric around them, but they also come with a black perforated sleeve made of a lightweight material. I just find that the pack is almost too cold with the sleeve it comes with, but for those looking for maximum coldness, that would be a plus. Sure, they don't last forever, they can start to fray a bit after maybe six months, but given the low price and cold retention they can't be beat. Overall, a great value cold pack.

I needed to have a second gel pack for my Caldera therapy head wrap. This fits the bill. This system really helps my migraines. It's a relief where before there was very little. You can't take more than 4 Imitrex (safely) in a month and no more than 6 Ibuprofen (safely) in a day. That means I get 1 Ibuprofen if I have already taken my quota of Imitrex. This therapy wrap was heaven sent. It cools the fire and eventually the pain significantly decreases to where I can function.

Purchased this as to go with my Caldera sleeve and it fits perfectly. Great for migraine relief. I would recommend purchasing the Caldera sleeve to secure it to desired area.

Many of the cold wraps you couldn't leave in the freezer for extended periods, but this one you can. I bought a few additional gel inserts since they only stay cold enough for about 30 - 45 mins. Otherwise this is perfect. The elastic strap is already stretching out a bit, but not unusable yet.

I wrap them diagnostically in a bandanna and use them on my neck. When I need to get the occipitals, I tie the bandanna at my forehead. These stay cold a long time and are easily manipulated.

As stated in the title, they work well, but I wish they were a little thicker and could retain heat a bit longer. Fit into the Caldera wrap just fine.

They are wonderful to keep cool at night or for headaches, but if you use them as much as I do, they easily get holes and the blue gel is a pain to get out of the duvet cover and sheets.
