Thermophore Classic Heat Pack – This is a large weighted heating pad and easily one of the hottest I’ve ever used! I also love that it’s big enough to wrap around my head for full coverage. It’s operated with a hand trigger—you release it when it’s hot enough and press again when you want more heat. Keep in mind, it’s not an automatic “set it and forget it” pad, but that control makes it easy to get just the right warmth.

Microwavable Heated Neck Wrap Warmer and Shoulder Weighted Heating Pad – Weighted Heating pad that is microwavable and freezable! The best of both worlds!

SOOTHIE Headache Relief Hat and Migraine Relief Cap – Freeze or microwave your Soothie to get it the temperature you prefer during your migraine attack

4. Migraine Friendly Foods and Drinks

Staying hydrated is essential for everyone, but it’s especially important for people living with migraine since dehydration is a common—yet often preventable—trigger. These thoughtful gift ideas can help encourage, inspire, and make hydration a little easier throughout the day…

• Stanley Quencher Insulated Tumbler
• Yeti Rambler Travel Mug

Ginger products

Organic ginger juice from The Ginger People is an easy and versatile way to add ginger to drinks, recipes, and teas. Their ginger shots are a favorite for managing nausea or supporting those early moments of a migraine attack. We’re big fans of using ginger as part of a migraine relief toolkit, and their ginger candies are perfect for keeping on hand—portable, tasty, and easy to use on the go. The Double Strength variety is our top pick. They also offer chewable ginger tablets that can help ease the nausea that often tags along with migraine attacks.

Migraine Friendly Tea

One of our favorite organic ginger tea. We use this tea at the beginning of a migraine attack to help us feel better and treat symptoms. Read our article on ginger for migraine to get the scoop on how and why that works.

To complete this gift, consider an electric tea kettle that boils water in a flash and includes an automatic shutoff rather than the noisy triggering whistle of stovetop kettles.

Harry and David gifts

If you’ve ever received a box of Harry & David pears or apples, you already know how incredible they are—perfectly ripe, beautifully packed, and such a treat to enjoy. They’re also generally well tolerated by many people with migraine, making them a thoughtful and delicious gift option. We look forward to receiving a box of their fruit every year!

Jeni’s Ice Cream

If you haven’t tried Jeni’s Ice Cream yet, you’re in for something special. Their flavors are some of the most creative—and delicious—you’ll find anywhere. A few favorites include Skillet Cinnamon Roll, Brambleberry Crisp, and Salty Caramel. The best part? They ship nationwide! Choose a mix of your favorites or pick a few fun, adventurous flavors to send to family and friends.

5. Allay Lamp

Let’s talk about light sensitivity. For many people living with migraine, certain lights can actually trigger pain. The Allay Lamp is an incredible tool for managing this challenging symptom, making it a thoughtful and practical gift for anyone with migraine.

Developed through research at Harvard, the Allay Lamp emits a narrow band of green light that’s uniquely calming for the brain. It can help reduce migraine symptoms during attacks and may even help lower their frequency over time. Learn more about the fascinating science behind green light therapy in our articles on light sensitivity and green light therapy for vestibular migraine.

The Migraine Strong writers feel so strongly about how helpful this migraine relief gift is, that we not only use it ourselves, we have bought it for several friends and family. (To receive 10% off of the Allay Lamp use this link!!)

6. Migraine glasses

Light sensitivity can make life challenging not just during a migraine attack, but between them as well. Bright fluorescent lights in stores or offices can actually cause pain for people with migraine. Time spent in strong sunlight, in front of computer and device screens, or even driving through dappled light can be equally tough. That’s why we always keep our blue light–blocking migraine glasses close at hand!

1. Avulux – Independent studies have shown that by precisely filtering light, Avulux Migraine & Light Sensitivity lenses can help people living with migraine. These lenses filter blue, amber and red light while allowing soothing green light through. ($25 off with code migrainestrong!)
2. Theraspecs – Therapeutic blue light glasses filter out the harmful light that triggers migraines, headaches, eyestrain, and other conditions such as post concussion.
3. Terramed FL-41 Migraine Glasses – Light weight FL-41 ‘anti-migraine’ glasses specially designed to prevent and reduce the frequency of migraine attacks, relieve symptoms from light sensitivity and minimize eye strain and fatigue.
4. Gunnar Premium Gaming and Computer Glasses – Premium gaming glasses help prevent symptoms from prolonged screen time, including migraine attacks, headaches, dry eyes, and blurry vision caused by blue light exposure. They specifically block blue light at 450nm, filtering 65% of blue light and 100% of UV light.
5. Theraspecs Outdoor Migraine Glasses offer more sunlight protection than typical sunglasses making them a great option for those with migraine and vestibular disorders.

7. Audible and Kindle subscription

Reading can be a wonderful way to distract yourself from pain, but focusing on the written word during a migraine attack can be tough. A subscription to Audible makes a thoughtful gift for anyone whose migraine symptoms—or busy lifestyle—make it hard to sit down with a physical book. With Audible, audiobooks are easy to download and enjoy. New members get 30 days free to try it out, after which you can choose to cancel, continue with a monthly subscription, or purchase individual titles.

Adding an Amazon Echo Dot Speaker makes listening to books on Audible hands-free. Another way to make the Kindle or iPad hands-free is with this Remote control page turner for kindle/iPad. Just clip the device on the side of the Kindle or iPad. You can use the clicker in your hand to turn the pages instead of reaching up and tapping the side of the device each time. I love this! I can prop my Kindle on a pillow, snuggle under the blankets, and never have to reach out to turn a page!

Use this adjustable tablet stand to hold your device, and you can stay bundled up, cozy and warm!! This is especially nice for those who have trouble holding devices due to arthritis or other conditions.

Kindle Unlimited gives you access to both e-books and audiobooks, and it comes with a 30-day free trial. The ability to read e-books is an added bonus for those who enjoy reading digitally. For anyone with migraine, the Kindle Paperwhite is an excellent choice—it features an adjustable screen with an auto-adjust front light for a personalized reading experience, day or night, and even allows you to warm up the screen colors. If migraine symptoms make reading difficult, the Paperwhite can read the text aloud for you.

Wireless listening device

Oladance Open Ear Headphones – Listening to audiobooks, music, podcasts, or meditation apps through earbuds works for most of us—but if in-ear buds feel uncomfortable, these headphones are a great alternative. They sit over the upper ear and in front of the ear canal opening, offering a secure and comfortable fit.

While they don’t include noise cancellation, I’ve used them on airplanes, during workouts, and in busy, noisy environments with great results. I use them daily for phone calls, and the sound is clear for both me and the person I’m speaking with. They’re comfortable, easy to use, and come in four fun colors—I went with orange because it’s bright and cheerful!

These headphones include all the standard “tap” features found on most wireless earbuds. For frequent travelers, there’s an optional charging case, which I purchased and love—it makes charging on the go simple. Plus, the battery life lasts a long time, so you can stay connected without constantly recharging.

The Bose QuietComfort Headphones – Wireless Bluetooth Headphones – Plush over-ear headphones softly hug your ears while you listen. I really like using these in-flight when I am wearing my earplugs to reduce headaches during air travel.

8. Professional migraine service

Having your own personal team is important for managing migraine. A headache specialist, support group and specialized exercise and migraine coaching can all be resources for helping us manage migraine. For many, this would be the ultimate migraine care package!

Virtual headache clinic

Finding a headache specialist—or a doctor trained specifically in headache disorders—can be challenging. Some states don’t have any specialists, while others may have only one. Now, you can connect with a board-certified headache specialist or neurologist trained in headache care from the comfort of your home via video.

This service, called Neura Health, an online neurology clinic, helps patients with chronic headache and migraine (along with other neurological disorders) access high-quality care without long travel or long waits. Most new patients are seen within days rather than weeks or months. Check out our Neura Health review for more details.

Our Migraine Strong Neura Health link will save you $15 on sign-up!

9. The gift of books & migraine education

The Headache: The Science of a Most Confounding Affliction—and a Search for Relief – The Headache by Tom Zeller pulls back the curtain on the science behind a group of disorders that are often dismissed as mere inconveniences—or even jokes—despite the profound impact they have on daily life. As Zeller investigates the roots of his own headaches, he takes readers on a compelling journey through the complexities of the human nervous system. The result is a thoughtful, eye-opening exploration of pain itself and a powerful testament to one of medicine’s most misunderstood and underestimated conditions.

The Mysterious Bakery on Rue de Paris – I loved this book about a baker in this mysterious bakery. I highly recommend the Evie Woods books. So good!!

A Pass to The Migraine World Summit– This online summit could honestly be life-changing for anyone who suffers from migraine.

10. App subscription

Meditation or mindfulness apps

Meditation can be an effective tool when dealing with migraine. We often recommend Calm to the members in our Migraine Strong Facebook group. It’s an app for sleep, meditation, focus and relaxation. You can even fall asleep to a bedtime story, some of them read by well-known artists. Additional popular guided meditation subscriptions are Insight Timer, Headspace and Breethe. And if you are looking for a migraine tracker, check out Migraine Buddy.

Gift Ideas Not To Give People With Migraine

If you are shopping for a gift for someone with migraine keep in mind that some things can actually trigger an attack. Although triggers are individual, it is better to avoid the following: 

• Products with scents and fragrances such as perfume, candles, and scented lotions;  
• Tickets to events which could cause sound or light sensitivities;
• Products that create flashing lights and noise

We hope that this holiday season will allow you and your loved ones to spend quality time and enjoy each other. Although gifts are part of a long time tradition, nothing says “I care about you” like a phone call or a random act of kindness. We also hope that these gift ideas will make the shopping process easier for you when you are shopping for someone with migraine.
