Mimi This, we’ll probably get banned in Minnesota because it’s called the TheraICE Migraine Relief Cap. It’s about $30 on Amazon. It’s basically a bandana with eye shades. It blocks out the light. The cap has these gel inserts, and it’s got a Ziploc bag. So you put the cap into the Ziploc bag. You put it in your freezer for at least two hours. And then you put it on. And it is, it’s not stiff. It’s actually kind of jellish. So it’s always cold. It lasts for a while. It gives a little bit of gentle compression. And the cap is just, it fits all head sizes. It’s a little bit of compression.

Adam Wait, you put it over your head?

Mimi Over your head, it covers your eyes. So it looks like a cap.

Adam Is this for hangovers? Or what do you use this for?

Mimi Oh, yeah. Oh, no. Well, it’s for migraines, hangovers. If you’ve got a fever, it actually is excellent for a fever. These are really good products. It’s good for about two hours. Unlike a big ice bag, it doesn’t leak on you. And it’s also a pretty even temperature the whole time. I think it’s fantastic. It is important to put it into the sealed bag.

Adam Can you walk outside and walk around the neighborhood with this? Or will they scare the children?

Mimi You’d walk into trees. It covers your eyes.

Adam Okay. And what is the name of this product again?

Mimi It’s TheraICE. They also have devices for your shoulder and your ankle and knee wraps. So as you get old and you start having aches and pains, they’re fantastic. But the migraine relief cap is really… I’m a migraineur. I’ve had migraines all my life.

Adam Oh, I’m sorry.

Mimi And it explains my quirky personality.
