The 'Helpo' is being described as a pocket spa and a "souvenir of wellness" that works as a [natural alternative to drugstore pain relievers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pain-relief-rollon-for-cramps).

The product comes in the form of a small metal container on a keychain that can be slipped into a purse, pocket or even a wallet for convenient use and access. When unscrewed, the Helpo reveals a roller ball that disperses a combination of natural essential oils onto the user's skin. The Helpo contains a combination of mint, lavender, rosemary, ylang ylang and aloe vera and uses scent and a calming sensation to relieve stress, plus soothe tense head and neck muscles.

The Helpo functions as a [tiny aromatherapy product](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canopy-relief-aroma) that is ideal for those who would like the opportunity to have the benefits of essential oils accessible to them at all times.
