I am a massage therapist and endorse this product. Small intervals of 5-10 minutes on this can help over time to correct forward head posture and functional hyperkyphosis (hunch in the upper back/neck from prolonged poor posture). It helps alleviate discomfort and pain and can help improve your neck’s range of motion. If you have a stiff neck from a bad night’s sleep, or If you’re prone to neck pain that turns into headaches, this product is for you. I will say that this particular model is suited towards people with larger bodies and necks, and the curve may be too pronounced for someone who is more petite. I also don’t recommend for anyone who has any sort of spinal injury or disorder.

This was the second cervical-type of pillow/device I’ve ordered. I’ve had some serious knots in my shoulder area that are the result of falling asleep reading in bed at night, poor posture, and hunching over a device during the day. As a parent, reading in bed at night (when everyone is asleep and it’s quiet) is not something I am willing to give up. I tried massage, pain-relief creams/gels, and different sleeping pillows, to no avail. They provided some temporary relief, but every morning I woke up in pain. I started thinking that maybe my issue was more “bone-related” in its origins and that was what was causing the muscle tension. This was a last ditch effort before booking an appointment with a chiropractor. Holy buckets of glory, this thing has changed my life. Just 10 minutes a day with this (plus 10 minutes on my acupressure mat) has dissolved the muscle tension. I’m able to crack my neck and back consistently and there are no adhesions in my shoulders to be found. My massage therapist is astounded at the results. My hubby gave it a shot as well, and HE raves about it and about how much better he feels. We’re thinking about purchasing another one since we both tend to want to use it at the same time of day. Such an unassuming device but so, so, so, worth it!

I saw it on TickTock so it must be real… In this case, it IS! Where on earth has this little blessing been my whole life? I’ve been dealing with neck pain for over 10 years. All the usual gimmicks and gadgets have failed me and I’m tired of going to the chiropractor three times a week hoping for some relief. This little tidal wave of a pillow is a godsend! I have instant pain relief after just 10 minutes of using it every day. I’m not even joking when I say I can’t wait to walk in the door plop onto the floor and prop this baby under my neck. I look forward to it tremendously because I know relief is coming! If you have neck pain you have got to try this pillow!! Now, I just need something like this for my back…

I read all the reviews on this product before buying I wasn't real sure about it but gave it a try. Most reviews seemed to be written ten minutes after the consumer received it. It was as it they expected instant relief from pain, like a pill. Upon receiving it I read the instructions and did exactly what it said. I have used it daily for two months for ten minutes a day. At first my upper back was a little fatigued but I have kept it up and when used properly as a TOOL to change and correct the cervical alignment. Giving me more range of motion and allowing me to sit longer and stand straighter slowly correcting posture and strengthening back muscles by putting the spine in the correct position. I hope this helps other make their decision on this product.

This simple little neck pillow is so easy to use and so much more effective than those weird neck sling options sold on Amazon. And all those things do is raise your neck up off the floor and your hanging by a door knob or something lol 😂 This neck pillow allows you to lay safely & securely on your bed or on the floor and slip this pillow under your neck and get what seems like immediate relief!! I use this now once in the evening maybe an hour before bedtime and I sleep better with no neck pain or world tingling in my arms. I’m 55 and don’t have any major health issues and have not been diagnosed with spinal stenosis or anything else, but I was getting weird tingling in my arms and a sore neck every single night. It woke me up several times each night. The tingling has basically disappeared and I sleep much better and have so much more range of movement during the day when turning my neck!! So worth the money and I’d highly recommend this product to friends and family 🥰

I just ordered this on a whim (saw it listed as an Amazon customer pick) because my neck has been killing me. Just got my X-rays back from the imaging place and I have severe narrowing in multiple cervical vertebrae. Thought I'd try this while waiting to go to chiropractor to use decompression table. I figured if it didn't work, I could just return it using Amazon's awesome return policy. NOPE--this is NOT going back. I used it for five minutes as instructed and after just that short amount of time I feel such relief. I really didn't expect much. Color me pleasantly suprised. I have a shoulder/arm/hand injury I am waiting to get looked at, so could not fully extend my arms out like the instructions show, but doing the best I could also loosened up my upper back and shoulders. That's pretty good for just five minutes. The neck stretcher is not too hard, but it's not super soft. I didn't find it painful though and I do have pain and a lot of stiffness and discomfort. My pain is chronic/ongoing from cervical degeneration. If you have an acute neck injury, you might want to ask your doctor if it's ok for you to try this device. It won't fix my neck, I've got at least 3rd stage neck degeneration (chiro said that in 2014) but man, it's helping with the pain and maybe if I keep using it once or twice a day it will be beneficial. I will still do the decompression table at my local chiropractor (that's worth it too) because that's serious traction , but this is going to be my go-to at home treatment. I have several wedges and do-dads that I've purchased over the years and they either hurt or I didn't get immediate results and so didn't keep up with them. I have tried different wedges and rolls and towels and such, but I think the extreme curve in this one and the way it tips your head and neck way back is why it provides so much relief. I totally rec this. Will update at some point to say how the device helps long term. Try it. It even got rid of my neck related headache today and took away neck tension to the point I feel like I am more relaxed and ready to sleep well

I had a friend who recommended it, and knew I was in chronic pain, so told me to buy it. I was skeptical, especially for the. price. Not only is it completely comfortable, it really works. It's sort of unbelievable. I've had multiple car accidents and neck injuries so my neck has compressed discs. I'm in daily, .chronic pain, and it gets very bad when I sit at a computer all day. Honestly I can't do the entire 10 minutes, but even a short session lying on this and the pain goes away, nearly completely. Enough that you can sleep...go about your day. Your pain will come back if you have real neck injuries, but this is the best thing I have ever come across and trust me I have tried every type of pillow, accupuncture, massage there is. Anyone with chronic neck pain should give this a try.

I was somewhat skeptical it would be effect for my chronic neck pain due to damage to my C6 vertebrae needing surgery per doctors. We all know doctors love to make money and they are basically doing a best guess approach anyways. Been using this product for about a week now and I have had some adjustment pains but this is realistic and expected quite honestly. When one wants true results they have to understand it’s not a cover up treatment like western medicine, your trying to correct the root problem. I will say it can be very relaxing laying on this thing, the different approaches do have different effects so you will have to find what works best for you. Given most people spend a lot of time looking at cellphones, computer screens and other devices that are poorly positioned for proper neck alignment I would suggest trying this product. It’s a gentle traction device in simply terms, that can offset some of our bad posture through our daily life. It sure beats the monthly massage costs I was paying before with far better results. Based on cost of product I would recommend giving it a try. Product quality is decent and not to much of a smell like other products. I hope it helps, it has really helped me so I decided to review it.

My reviews are from a real, unpaid person...not a page of useless info. This does help but if you are smaller in height this my provide to much arch. I am 6ft and it is a the limit for me. My wife is shorter and its to high of an arch for her.

I have had cervical neuropathy for the past 7 years, which caused pain in my shoulders, but, moreso extreme pins and needles in my fingers. Initially, I had two spinal epidurals which alleviated the problem for about 5 years. Then in came back so I had an epidural again which did nothing. I was prescribed Gabapentin which I took for over a year. It really didnt help so I recently discontinued taking it. Then I saw this product and thought to give it a try. Even after using it for 10 min, the pins and needles in my fingers were significantly reduced. Ive been using it every day now for 10 min and more and more my symptoms have gone away. I would recommend using the Convex method (Gentle traction where the bumps are facing away from top of your head) initially, then gradually move to the Concave method, by flipping it around. I read some responses about it being too hard. Not sure what thats about. Its hard rubber, but not "like rocks" and it has to be firm to support your cervical realignment. Ive only been using it a short time now, so I will update my review if necessary, but for now, I couldnt be happier.
