Built by Patients. Backed by Science. Driven by Pain (and a lot of rage).
Spicey was born out of frustration with junky heat patches, dismissive doctors, and pain care that treats symptoms like a nuisance. We’re not a boardroom brand. We’re patients, providers, and people who’ve been through it. Every product we make starts with lived experience and ends with actual relief. No fluff, no pharma vibes. Just smart, safe, feel-good heat that sticks. We’re proud to be patient powered. Because no one knows pain better than the people who live it.
Hannah Rose
CEO + Founder
Professional "Good Trouble" Maker
Hannah was diagnosed with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome at 8 years old, then hit the chronic pain jackpot again in adulthood with endometriosis, adenomyosis, and a hysterectomy at age 32.
After years of gaslighting, opioid warnings, and zero reliable heat patches, she decided to make her own damn solution. Spicey was born from that fire.
Now in recovery (with CRPS and endo still lurking), she’s on a mission to make pain care less clinical, more compassionate, and way hotter.
Favorite coping tools: heat therapy, gummies, Beagle cuddles, Guinea Pig mischief, and the Spicey community.
Least favorite words: “But have you tried therapy?”
Gets Spicey for: Adenomyosis, CRPS, Endometriosis, joint pain, migraines, & pre/post workout recovery.
Stephanie Bauder
CMO + Community Manager
Storyteller, Dog Lover, Chaos Coordinator
Steph was diagnosed with PCOS in her early teens, and then later diagnosed with endometriosis at 25.
Navigating the health system with a long list of unexplained symptoms and multiple surgeries was lonely and exhausting, so she turned pain into purpose and found her home at Spicey.
She’s fiercely committed to building a safe & supportive community where things stay real, accessible, and funny (because sometimes that’s the only thing that helps).
With us, at Spicey, you will never be alone in your journey.
Favorite Coping Tools: large iced coffees, heat therapy, community
Least Favorite Words: "What about yoga...or rowing??"
Gets Spicey for: Endometriosis, PCOS, Chronic Fatigue, Migraines, Joint Pain, Chronic Back Pain
Why We're Spicey
The Medical Establishment Fails Us.
We can do everything “right,” see the specialists, try the meds, follow the protocols, and still get into massive medical debt in the process. No matter how much we advocate for ourselves, we're always fighting to be believed.
We exist because our own bodies (and millions of others) are failed every day. Now? Team Spicey is making the thing we all needed, and giving the finger (politely) to the status quo while we’re at it.
