CNCK, Troy Healthcare Partnership Aims to Provide Migraine Prevention, Support
ContentChecked today reported its partnership with Troy Healthcare under which the two companies will use their innovative products, MigraineChecked and Stopain® Migraine, respectively, to help deliver preventative information and fast-acting relief for migraine sufferers.
According to the Migraine Research Foundation, migraines are among the top 20 of the world’s most disabling medical illnesses. By teaming up, ContentChecked and Troy Healthcare aim to help the 37 million Americans suffering from migraines find acute, preventative and complementary treatment for symptom relief by leveraging the benefits of their respective technologies.
MigraineChecked is one of ContentChecked’s family of free health apps for people with dietary restrictions and/or food preferences. MigraineChecked users can set up profiles and favorites, and use the app to scan food bar codes to identify and avoid the more than 250,000 packaged foods known to trigger migraines.
“Many migraines are triggered by specific ingredients in foods and beverages, from tannins to artificial sweeteners, and our app helps raise awareness of these hidden ingredients so migraine sufferers can make more informed choices simply by scanning bar codes on grocery packaging,” Kris Finstad, CEO of ContentChecked, stated in the news release. “This partnership with Stopain Migraine was ideal because, as a migraine sufferer myself, I’ve personally grown tired of oral medications and the side effects. Having an effective, topical pain relieving gel gives me and other migraine sufferers a new, safe option.”
Stopain Migraine is a new, topical migraine pain relieving gel that provides safe, fast and effective migraine pain relief without pills, known side effects, or the risk of drug interaction. The gel is applied topically as a measured dose on the back of the neck and behind each ear (an area where many migraines are believed to originate) and can be applied up to four times daily. Because Stopain Migraine is topical and does not include aspirin, caffeine or acetaminophen, it can be used alone or in conjunction with other medications since there are no known drug interactions. Stopain Migraine is currently available at most Walmart stores nationwide.
“With Stopain Migraine, consumers can experience fast relief of migraine pain without the risk of significant side effects,” says Anthony Cicini, vice president of Troy Healthcare, maker of Stopain Migraine and other pain-relieving over-the-counter products. “Stopain Migraine is formulated with Menthol, Belladonna, Iris Versicolor and Sanguinaria Canadensis, for a more natural approach to migraine pain relief.”
