Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, often accompanied by fatigue, sleep disturbances, cognitive difficulties (“fibro fog”), and increased sensitivity to touch or temperature. It’s believed to involve changes in how the nervous system processes pain, amplifying sensations that might otherwise feel manageable. Symptoms can vary from person to person and often fluctuate, with periods of flare-ups that impact daily routines, work, and overall quality of life.
Because there is no single cure, care focuses on managing symptoms and supporting the body in ways that feel sustainable. For some individuals, especially those who experience heat sensitivity or inflammation during flare-ups, body cooling may offer supportive relief by helping calm irritated tissues and reduce feelings of overheating. While results vary, non-invasive cooling options are often used as part of a broader comfort strategy, sometimes alongside moist heat or gentle massage, depending on the type of discomfort being experienced.
Non-Profits:
"This is to let you know how much I appreciate and thank you for helping me to find relief from pain caused by arthritis and fibromyalgia. I recommend the Roller Ice massage tool. I used this wonderful new device and it bought an instant relief to my sore body parts. It isn't heavy or awkward to hold and takes 15 minutes at the most to be mobile once again."

"Works great for FMS, hot flashes and muscle inflammation! I live in Phoenix, Arizona and suffer from FMS and menopausal hot flashes. The neck wrap and the neck and upper spine wrap have made it possible for me to make it through the warm days. They also work great for my muscle pain and inflammation."

"I bought this vest for my husband, who is 6'3" and wears a 3XL. He has dysautonomia, chronic migraines, and fibromyalgia. He does not handle hot weather well. He is also an automotive technician, so he works in a hot shop and often times over a hot engine. He has only been wearing the Kool Max® vest for a week now, but he is absolutely in love with it. It fits him well, is comfortable to wear at work, and he is much cooler with his vest."
