Cervical Traction Wedge Pillow - Neck and Shoulder Relaxer - Gentle Spinal Correction - Head Posture, Migraine, Headache, Occipital Release- Grey

Pillow has helped relieve neck pain and to gently stretch when needed.

Lifelong reader, here, whose cartilage between vertebrae are worn down from looking down to read. My chiropractor wanted me to buy an expensive wedge from her practice, but I found this little option ... and oh my goodness, it is nice! It's firm foam rather than hard plastic - which I prefer. The hard plastic cervical correctors are much to hard for me. I started with 5 minutes and have worked up to about 20 minutes now. I can tell a distinct difference with decreased stiffness in my neck, better range of motion (I also stretch), decreased tenderness, and fewer low headaches in the back of my head. I usually slide it under my neck after my first alarm in the morning and lie on it before getting up, so its primary use is in bed. I also lie on it on the floor during the day sometimes. I move it around to hit different pressure points. Feels so good. Have also used it just before bed and have fallen asleep on it several times. Recently recommended this to my dental hygienist who has similar neck problems from looking down all day.

Me gusto pero yo mido 1.60 cm y me queda como grande o sea mi cuello como que no se acomoda. Se la di a mi yerno que es alto y grande y a él si le acomodo

So when I saw the glowing reviews for what looked like an overpriced wedge of foam, I was very skeptical indeed. But given the free returns policy and nothing better as an alternative, I bought this thing and started using it per the instructions to try to fix what was a really mess up neck (I couldn't even roll my head around my head without pain and let's call it "obstruction" of some sort). Started with 5 minutes, then 10 minutes, then 15 minutes regularly laying down on it (and listening to meditation to knock out two birds with one stone, check!). After one week, I could feel my neck didn't hurt, felt straighter and I could roll my head without obstruction, though still a little tenderness. One more week and whatever had been awry, was now fully straightened out - no more pain, full motion, feeling great. I now use it occasionally when I feel my office-days have been hard on my posture/neck, OR when I'm being good about doing my meditations, and I have not had an issue or pain in my neck since those initial two weeks. It is honestly and absurdly a miracle product for what it is, and it has fixed me beautifully with no need to visit a chiropractor or do anything else. And it will keep on giving because I can lay down on it whenever I feel the need to maintain the alignment in my neck - feels amazing. Would give 10 stars if I could!

Needed some relief for a tight neck due to a desk job. This does help! At first I didn't like it as it felt awkward, uncomfortable and a bit too "hard" for my already hurting neck. However, I noticed that it put a firm but gentle amount of pressure on my occipitals which then brought some much needed relief. I started out slowly, only using it a minute or so at a time until I got used to it. The key for me is to use it often for shorter periods of time as opposed to once or twice a day for longer periods of time. Also, I think the pillow needs to be in order to put the proper amount of counterpressure on those tight muscles and bring about relief. In a way it is sort of like having your own personal neck stretcher whenever you need it. Well worth the money in my opinion. I gave it 4 stars because it does help with some if the pain but not all of it, and also as stated, it isn't that comfortable, by design, but for those who need to know this I rated it as such.
