From Chronic Pain to Purpose: My Story

Our Founders Story

My name is Catherine, I’m 52, happily married with 3 adult children and a new granddaughter. My journey began when I was 24, just after the birth of my second son, when migraines started . Up to this point I never had as much as a headache! It took 6 years and eventually received a diagnosis of a rare migraine condition called Sporadic Hemiplegic Migraine. Over the years, this condition, has left me with physical disabilities on my left side. During my 30’s I started having Thyroid issues, and depression due to life’s circumstances. I continued to work and raise my family. At 46 I was unwell for about 8 months and eventually got diagnosed with dilated cardio myopathy. I have since been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, Ulcerative colitis. In 2023, I left my role as Retail manager due to my health and a toxic work environment. I had reached a point where I knew I couldn’t continue. My body and my brain had simply had enough.

I have always had a passion for business, Retail, customer service and I knew I couldn’t just give up. While some might have decided to step back, I’m just not built that way! With the encouragement of my amazing family—and especially my hubby, who convinced me it was time—MyComfort® was born.
It took me 18 months to design, source the right materials, and build this brand exactly the way I wanted it to be. Every piece of MyComfort® reflects the high standards I held for 30 years in retail, combined with the soft, supportive touch I’ve needed in my own life.
Thank you for being here and for supporting this new chapter of my life,
Catherine

Comfort with a Conscience

Deep pressure relief meets circular design in a durable, slow-fashion staple crafted for your peace and our planet’s future.

Our Sleepwell Eye Mask In Red

Eco-Conscious Luxury

We meticulously selected premium sustainable raw materials from across Europe and sent them to our manufacturer in Poland. The outer fabric, sourced from Italy, is made from regenerated pre and post consumer waste, such as fishing nets and carpets. The inner wadding, originating from Austria, is Oeko-Tex certified, while the elastic, also Austrian-sourced, is crafted from organic materials.

Weighted for Gentle Relief

Our cool and calming insert is thoughtfully weighted to provide gentle relief. Encased in sustainable muslin—a soft, breathable fabric designed to enhance the full cooling experience—it offers deep pressure stimulation for added comfort. When stored in your freezer and placed inside your eye mask, the insert can reduce inflammation from pain by up to 20% within just 30 minutes, based on tests conducted at MyComfort® HQ.
Our Aromatherapy Insert is also weighted with 40gram of fresh dried lavender. Once heated , this will relax you and enable you to rewind from a hard day or relieve that tension headache.
The weighted inserts, help create deep pressure stimulation which works by gently encouraging the body to switch from “fight or flight” to “rest and digest,” naturally boosting serotonin and melatonin to help you feel grounded, calm, and ready for deep sleep.
