Gelly Belly Grizzy Bear

by

Here it is!From the “why didn’t I think of that” department: One of the most effective ways for treating migraines or headaches is with cold compresses. Some hydrotherapists (and conventional doctors) recommend alternating hot and cold packs. When you have a bad headache, you need to move as little as possible. And the packs can be kinda ugly and slippery.

Well, now you can microwave a small teddy bear or stick in a cold pack to stick on your head. You could also drape it on your neck to relax tense muscles which can contribute to headache pain. This Gelly Belly Grizzly Bear is originally for kids, but why should they have all of the fun? At least it’s reuseable, cute and closes with Velcro. And, it can be used for other owies other than headaches or migraines to help you “bear” with the pain.

The packs, which can be microwaved or stuck in the freezer (you do have to remember to stick them in the freezer!) are insterted into the back of the bear and then you place bear on needed body part.

(Ducks for cover.)

Does It Come With Jelly Bellies?

Unfortunatley, no. Despite the name, the Gelly Belly Grizzy Bear has nothing to do with the delectable Jelly Belly jelly beans. Come to think of it, has anyone ever tried taking Jelly Belly jelly beans for a headache? They need to come out with an “Excedrin” flavor…ewww, on second thought, maybe not.

Interesting gift combo idea for a headache prone friend or family member with a sweet tooth — Gelly Belly Grizzly Bear and Jelly Belly jelly beans.

Am I Getting One?

Well, let’s just say that I now have one less headache about getting a family member a Christmas gift! Off to get the Visa card. Hey, I’m not slacking off by shopping on the computer during time I should be writing a longer blog post — I’m multitasking. Yeah, that’s the ticket…

Hope this helps. Have a pain free weekend.
