Believe the silly commercials, it works!

Pros: No Side Effects, Promotes Healing, Reduces Pain

Best Uses: Daily Use, Emergencies, Quick Fix, Traveling

Bottom Line: recommended

It's not a magic wand you wave (or rub) over your head, but it does help alleviate the pain. I carry mine around in my purse so I can use it anywhere. It doesn't leave any residue that I know of. Strangely enough, I have applied it to other body parts just to see what happens, and it doesn't work anywhere else! I felt nothing on my knee, where I tested it. But it does work, and with a combination of bed rest and other medicines it works even better.

This is a wonderful product. I find that it doesn't actually make the headache go away, but it really helps soothe the pain while I'm waiting for my medicine to start working. It was of most value to me while I was pregnant because it brought me pain relief when I couldn't take my migraine pills.

I was pleasantly surprised by this product. I have a 15-year history of migraines and this is a great portable product to keep with you to take immediate action when a migraine hits. When applied, it starts a cooling pain-alleviating sensation within moments and works for about an hour on me. It is extremely useful to have while you are waiting for a medication taken in pill form to take effect. I keep one on my desk and one in my purse so I know instant comfort is there when I need it. The minutes before my prescription medication kicks in can seem like hours and this really helps to take the edge off.

It works in that it lessens and sometimes cuts off a headache before it really gets started. It doesn't help all that much once a migraine has gotten very intense except to add some cooling comfort. However, since it works right away, it's terrific in combination with migraine medications.

Somewhat comforting but really does not work at all. When one has a headache, especially a migraine, we often will use anything and everything that might help. With this product be very careful to not get into your eye. I suspect all of the headOn for any of the headaches do not work but may help with sinus problems at least a tiny bit. Better off to go for Olbas or Vicks though for sinus.

This product is excellent. In my experience, it won't completely get rid of a headache, but it will alleviate the pain while it's on (for at least 1-2 hours, and then I reapply as necessary). So for those with true migraines, this is not a magic cure, but provides some INSTANT relief. Those who get severe headaches will know that any degree of relief is a godsend, even if it doesn't get rid of the headache entirely. I find it turns my skin a light red, but I prefer looking a bit pink to intense pain! This product is at least worth trying.

Whereas it does make the headache feel a little bit better, a cool washcloth or baggie with some ice in it does the same and this stuff is strong enough that for several days after I use it, my forehead itches like mad and eventually peels. So I guess I'm sensitive to the stuff. I've had migraines for over 40 years and have tried everything, and never had that sort of reaction before.

I love HeadOn Migraine Relief. It doesn't always work for me, but that happens. It works more often than not for me, which is great. It does work best for me at the beginning of my migraine or headache. I look forward to trying the other HeadOn products.

I have had migraines for more than 20 years. I have been going to the doctors for years for relief...once my system gets used to the prescription, they don't work anymore, plus I get an upset stomach from all the medications. I decided to try Head On after having a headache for 3 days without relief. To my surprise, it worked in 30 minutes, and without any side effects. I would definitely recommend it to anyone. This is a fantastic breakthrough. I was so excited about this product that I introduced it to my co-workers, and now we all use the product. Thanks a lot for this relief! It was the best money I have ever spent!

by Laurie

I am pregnant, and decided that this would be worth a try. I have had migraines for 5 years, finally diagnosed a few months ago by a neurologist. Head On helps 20-30%, which is a big relief when I am really suffering and trying to stay away from oral medications. It works a lot better if you carry the Head On with you and use it at first signs of headache, or warning signs. I found that it also helps my eye symptoms (swelling, pain, and dry irritated feeling) that I get that go along with my headaches. I was not going to try to convice my husband to try this, as we both really like Excedrin (at least before I was pregnant), but he saw me using it and wanted to try it, and now he says it works for him too, about 20%. It is not greasy or oily feeling. I have ultra-sensitive allergy skin, acne-prone with rosacea and seborric dermatitis. Head On does not irritate my skin or eyes (Vicks menthol usually irritates my eyes). It has a slight menthol like aroma, but that does not bother me, either.
