Ice Beanie
Main features
This last product will be perfect for people who, for whatever reason, don’t like the stretchy headband type of headache relief hats that are presented in the top four positions on this list. It is a headache relief cap called Ice Beanie. The name is pretty straightforward for what it is… It is a beanie with ice (gel) packs inserted into its sides. The beanie can be slightly adjusted to fit the wearer's head and twisted around until the ice packs fall onto preferred spots. It doesn’t apply cold to the whole head, so it is perfect for location-specific headaches. Another nice feature Ice Beanie offers is that the fabric is completely washing-machine safe after removing the ice packs, so you can always keep your headache relief hat fresh and clean.
Ease of use
Using Ice Beanie isn’t complicated. You can either freeze the whole hat with the ice packs inside it or take the ice packs out and freeze them separately. You should freeze it for no less than 45-60 minutes. Once the ice packs are ready, put the beanie on your head, adjust the hat’s size with a velcro strap at the back, and enjoy the cold therapy. Since it doesn’t cover the eyes and fits like a regular beanie, you can wear it and enjoy the benefits of cold compression anywhere you like.
🎩 Value
The best part about Ice Beanie is that it is highly affordable. However, it doesn’t offer much functionality, as it can only provide cold therapy, whereas most headache relief hats on this list offer heat therapy as well. It is also very location-specific and can’t be used to relieve eye puffiness or cluster headaches behind the eyes. But this might be perfect for people with very specific problems and needs who don’t like the snug fit of the elastic headwraps. So, if you’re one of them, definitely check this headache relief cap out!
