Unraveling Migraine
Migraine isn't just a headache. It's a complex neurological disease, and this is the fully revised, evidence-based guide to understanding and managing it, written for patients and physicians alike.
Cooling for every kind of day
Both are lavender-free and paraben-free, both print every ingredient on the box, and both ship through Amazon with Prime. They use different coolants, so the cold feels different.
CROWN Cooling Roll-On
The everyday roller. A bright menthol and camphor cold with Bing Pian, Chuan Xiong, magnesium and German chamomile.
More than cooling: magnesium, herbs and chamomile, which is why it's made for everyday use.
- Coolants: menthol and camphor
- Herbs: Bing Pian and Chuan Xiong, with magnesium and German chamomile
- Up to 3 to 4 times a day
CROWN Plus Maximum Cooling Roll-On
The maximum-cooling roller for migraine attacks. The Triple Cool Complex layered over Bing Pian, Chuan Xiong and Bai Zhi.
- Coolants: Triple Cool Complex, menthol plus slower, odorless coolants
