    Awesomeness thank you for this review. I had not seen this one before. About 10 years ago I ordered a “MigraCap” which is similar, made in UK. I still have it and LOVE it for my migraines (I travel with it!). The best part of these caps, I think, it being able to put them on and be able to lay COMFORTABLY, and toss and turn without worry about where the ice pak is, knowing it will always be pressed to my hurting head 🙂 I may have to order an IceKap too, my one issue with the Migracap was it didnt stay cold long enough, I felt like I needed 2, one to switch out to when the first one lost its cool. Love the essential oils idea of this one too. One piece of advice for anyone with these – when putting in freezer, I found it a good idea to place it in a ziploc bag. Sometimes my cap would take on a smell of fridge food, even if a faint frozen food smell, when battling a migraine this smell would make me nauseous :/

    Hi! Thanks for the awesome review but unless I missed the main information I was looking for, do you get migraines? Have you used it for the purpose of relieving one and did it work?

      Hi Robin –

      Hah! I guess I did assume certain things in my post. 🙂

      Yes, I do have migraine, and yes, the Icekap was a help. I still have it in my freezer, and have used it since this review. 🙂

    Thank You posting your comments. My sister has severe migraines and she sounds so pitiful. she has been unable to hold a job and the medications dont really help. She also has `sensitivity to SMELL. Certain fragrances causes her nausea. Like smell from cars, buses, etc. She thinks its pesticides and can smell it but no one else can.

    So if you have any ideas of what she can do or medications or a particular DOCTOR please, please share

    I purchased an ice Kap to deal with migraine attacks. However, I have horrendous insomnia. One day, I had the start of a migraine so I put on my ice Kap. I fell asleep, which isn’t unusual after I take my migraine meds. But I slept for FOUR hours! That’s more than I usually slept in a night. A year later, and now I am wearing this thing to bed every night. I’ve been getting a consistent 6-7 hours of sleep per night. Which may not sound that great. But it’s so much better than the 1-2 (interrupted) that I was getting before. I’m not entirely sure why it works for insomnia. Does anyone know why?? I’m really curious. My guesses are brain freeze makes my brain shut up so I can fall asleep, and because lower temperatures are more conducive to sleep. But I don’t know?
