If you’ve ever had a migraine, you know how painful and debilitating they can be. That’s because migraines aren't "just" headaches — they’re painful, throbbing headaches that get so intense they can sometimes induce nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light. In fact, the medical community categorizes migraines as a neurological disorder believed to be caused by genetic mutations in the brain. They’re also more common than you might think—roughly one in seven Americans suffer from painful migraines on a regular basis.

That’s probably why so many people are loving the TheraICE Form Fitting Head Gel Ice Cap, a wearable migraine-relief cap that fits right over your head, face, and eyes. Not only is it getting shared all over TikTok, but Amazon customers also can’t stop raving about it.

The one-size-fits-all cap is made from stretchable fabric that’s designed to slip on easily and fit like a glove. Inside the cap is a flexible TheraICE cold gel pack, which promises to provide “360° natural cooling.” (Just pop it in a Ziploc bag and place it in the freezer for at least two hours before putting it on.) You can also microwave the cap for 10 seconds if you’d rather feel the soothing comfort of heat.

Based on the 19,000+ Amazon reviews it’s received so far—over 14,000 of which are 5-stars—this trusty little cap is clearly worth a try.

“As a person who suffers from chronic headaches (almost constant, every day), this is the best product I have found so far,” one Amazon customer wrote. “I *love* this thing.”

“There is absolutely NOTHING that I do not like about this item!” added someone else. “This showed up on FB newsfeed one day and I’m a sucker for those types of ads only to purchase and typically be disappointed and regret it. NOT FOR THIS!”

Multiple customers said they love the cap so much that they’ve bought several more to have around the house, and a few said it even feels good wearing at room temperature.

“I get migraines often and I become very light sensitive,” one person shared. “This mask helps completely block the light while applying pressure to the head where it hurts. It doesn’t get rid of my headache, but it does ease the symptoms and allows me to relax, which if you’ve had a killer headache, relaxing can be hard to do.”

Others have said that the cap helps them combat recurring symptoms caused by chronic diseases.

“I have a brain tumor that causes me to have horrible headaches a couple times a month,” another customer wrote. “I kept putting off this purchase because I thought it would honestly be a waste of money for me personally. Along with me trying to come to terms with my new diagnoses. I was pleasantly shocked by this product.”

The same customer called the cap’s gentle, 360° pressure “magical,” while another said it feels like “a cold hug for your aching head.”

Sounds pretty amazing, huh? And at under $35, we'll definitely be scooping this up for the new year.
