Who said they worked to alleviate the migraine, which was awesome as so many things they try did not.

Ok, so I sorta blasted this seller for rather slow shipping, but they were sending it from the UK, so I’m sorry about that. I’ve purchased something similar in the US at the same time that was just AWFUL, didn’t stick to my skin, and didn’t help at all, so my hopes that this would do anything weren’t very high. To my utter shock, this actually sticks to my skin and DOES HELP! It doesn’t kick the migraine completely away, but it is very cooling and soothing, and it eases some of the tension caused by the migraine. If you can catch your migraine quickly enough, it can keep it at bay. I will be buying more, and I am a chronic migraine sufferer. I don’t want to take meds as my first line of defense, so it is very nice to have this as an alternative that actually does do some good.

Niet tevreden, werkte niet bij migraine

So helpful, especially if wanting to avoid medication to resolve or if only having recently taken medication for a headache or migraine and its not near the time for being able to take anymore. These help for every type, I generally suffer from migraines yet mine are often at the back of my head, these still completely or greatly reduce that. They work aswell as pain relief tablets.
Nice and cooling so instantly begins to relieve any temperature. The strips can be cut which is a good idea if using them when a high temp is present as they absorb the heat fast and can feel less cold than when applied. If the whole strip is used then I tend to remove it to let it cool a bit and reapply, this is really just when my temp is high, otherwise it can be left on as it remains nice and cool. As this provides a nice instant cooling and soothing natural effect it is my preferred pain management method. The gel strips aren’t as appropriate if out anywhere as may look a bit odd!
The menthol scent can be detected which helps and the strips may feel a little strange for the first time but they are super easy to get used to. Easy to apply, literally remove a strip from the box, remove the clear protective covering from the blue gel side and stick the strip over the forehead with the blue gel underneath and the white material side on top.
These are the exact same as the in store ones, they have directions for use and I’ve found them personally to be very safe to use, they are not intended to be left on but I have on the odd occasion from falling asleep or generally being with a high temp and not had any problems however everyone is different so please follow the instructions and reccomendations given with this product.
They are not to be used again, these are disposable, I feel the box lasts as long as what a box of paracetamol will. I also think these are great with the paracetamol restrictions now in place. I don’t get pain relief from prescriptions because it’s cheaper to purchase from supermarkets and online, I prefer online as they stock better and this product hasn’t a quantity limitation! I certainly prefer giving this over to someone than pills, especially children. I’m allergic to aspirin and other pain relief meds so always happy to use this far more natural yet as effective product instead.

I have chronic migraines (ie sometimes even 20+ a month of them) and as most people would know, using painkillers for each one would make me have rebound headaches.
I have a little migraine kit in which I always have an ice pack and these strips. I don’t find they help with my pain as much as an ice pack would (and can’t have them sometimes in places where my pain actually is – as sometimes it’s at the back of my head) – but they definitely lessen the pain and allow me to survive the day.
I tried the reusable cold packs but found them troublesome as sometimes I’d require multiple of them and frankly these patches to me come out cheaper, and stay colder for longer.

After trying other brands of cooling strips I’ve now settled on these Kool ‘n’ Sooth strips as my go to each and evrytime. Not only are they amazing value for money (especially when they’re half price and only £1.50 a pack) but the cooling effect works instantly and lasts much longer than other brands (though not the 8 hours still longer than any other I’ve tried).
Within each pack you get 4 strips that are kept in two sealed bags. I do wish each strip has its only sealed bag so I could more easily take them out with me, but once the bag is opened the other strip still says sage as it has a plastic cover on the cooling side.
As soon as you place the strip you feel the coldness and it instantly helps the pain. It also seems to have a slight menthol effect that stings a tad (in a good way) and helps as well.
The initial coldness lasts a good couple of hours and after that it slowly fades but still helps for a few more hours after that.
If I use it quickly enough it can help kick the migraine down enough that the pain med can completely cover it, if I don’t get it on enough it helps it hurt less. I would say though that it dose not get rid of my migraines alone and I do still need meds as well, but it definitely helps.
Overall I can’t live without these now and they’re the first thing I grab at the start of every migraine. I’ve brought several packs now and will continue to do so and would definitely recommend them to everyone.

non stanno attaccate alla pelle della fronte, l’adesivo è troppo leggero. Comunque l’idea mi sembra buona.. anche se da migliorare
