I can't really explain how amazing it is. I love it and would recommend it for anyone with neck, shoulder or back discomfort related to tension. I call it the "blue frog tongue". LOL! that's what I think it looks like. Thank you so very much for making it.

I ordered this cervical doohickey to restore the curve in my neck. I literally received it this morning and have already used it for two 20 minute sessions. The crunchy crepitus noises coming from my neck were alarming, but my discomfort has resolved considerably. I never leave reviews, but I am so shocked that a few hours with this thing did more than a week of meds and a trip to a chiropractor, it warranted this long winded endorsement.

Its 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. I hope it helps, it has really helped me so I decided to review it.
Melissa Cardosi
I am SHOCKED at how well this works!! I have almost daily tension headaches (thank you pandemic) from stress and Fibro - this helps so much. It puts pressure on all the right spots to release the muscles and allows relief from my discomfort. I use it for about 10-15 minutes 2 or 3 times a day and it has bwen great! Sleeping better too!
NOFIRSTNAME
I slept discomfort free for the first time today - a two hour nap of bliss. The only time I dont feel neck discomfort is when I am laying with my neck on this, using a thin pillow over it.
Jillian Holder
Love it! Perfect for my boyfriend who is a truck driver and myself as a hairstylist!
MayBae
My hubby gave it a shot and HE raves about it and about how much better he feels. Were 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!
Donna E Davis
I would rate it 10 stars!! I realize every one has different neck problems So I suggest you talk to your dr before buying this. If you want to try it I am totally satisfied with service and price of this company. I do hope for you that you find this pillow will give you comfort and relief as it has me.
Anchetta
I had absolutely no neck discomfort or headaches which was fantastic, it's actually pretty good.
prooffrock
I'm grateful this product was available to me at such a reasonable price, and I recommend it! If you are hurting I truly hope you find relief for your discomfort. For me, part of the answer has been drastically reducing screen time and typing, so I better wrap this up and go stretch!
J. D. Smith
Tips: lay your head all the way back- your chin should be pointing at the ceiling. Do not look at your phone while you do this. Its just ten minutes. Put your arms by your side - you need your shoulder muscles to relax too. Sometimes when I first lay on it my whole back feels strained, but by relaxing, by the end of the ten minutes I feel great! My poor chiropractor might not see me for a while. Oh well!
Vstar
This device was very comfortable to use. The natural stretch in your neck is felt right away. I tend to have stress in my neck and after using this device, I noticed less tension.
Brad4321
This does cause discomfort on its first use, as my chiro warned me about, as you are moving things that likely haven't moved in that way in a long time. Pass through that phase for the most discomfort free day you have had in a long while!
Lucinda Reed
Reviews complained that this product was too hard! Really people, do you even read the product description. This is not a pillow, it is a tool to help stretch and realign your neck. All you have to do is lay down, put this under your neck, and relax. Very pleased with the results too.
Care giver
I love this neck rest. My neck and shoulders feel so much better now that I use this product. I just love it. It is also small enough to pack for trips. Well worth the money when you consider the medical alternative.
Katharine Anderson
Most of the pictures show the person laying on it with the lip facing them (the concave position), but I found it more comfortable to start with the lip facing away, which is a more gentle stretch, and then turning it around once my muscles relaxed enough. So far it feels good in the short term, but I haven't been using it long enough to see if there are any long term benefits for me.
Nichols and dimes.
We started again doing 2 minutes twice a day and worked up to 10. The range of motion in my neck is amazing,y shoulders are starting to relax, I thought I had round bones at the base of my skull, turns out it was knots of muscle.
Jay
The first time I used it hurt a little and was very uncomfortable. But as soon as my 10 minutes was up the discomfort was replaced with a tight feeling that cleared up within about 20 minutes. The second day was not uncomfortable, nor did I feel that tightness. I try not to miss a day or really try not to go more than a couple of days without it because I find that the discomfort starts building up after 3-4 days of not using it and it takes a couple of minutes to get use to it again when I do. I love this device
Jessica Gaball
I definitely recommend this product to anyone with tightness in the neck and shoulders, but you should definitely know what to expect when you start. It isn't an overnight its a magically better kind of thing, it takes time to work things out, just like it took time for them to get that way.
DD Brown
It's important to use it faithfully because I can feel some stiffness . It feels so great. And I'm glad I didn't order the $1400 splint/mouthguard that the dentist recommended! I am recommending it to all my friends and family. Whoever invented this is a genius!
Bart Windrum
When you do let it take your weight and lay still with your head 1-2" off the floor, you slowly realize how well it supplies traction relief. This is a very "quiet" "body toy" and a great addition to a body management toolset.
Ensetsu
I love the sensation of it stretching, it really helps. I bought a variety of tools for my own physical therapy and this is only one of them, but I do think it helps a lot considering it's the easiest product to use. It's also very comfortable. I'd recommend it to anyone who needs traction for their neck.
Babchia
I started using the neck support about a week ago, 10 minutes a day and I am seeing significant improvement. The constant discomfort in my neck has diminished and I feel an improvement in my overall posture! Another thing I noticed is that prior to using this product, I was having issues with hip and leg discomfort. I'm not sure if one has anything to do with the other but those discomforts have improved as well which I attribute to an improvement in posture.
Reagon Hottel
I rarely write reviews but Ive been using this for a month and it really deserves one. I use it for ten minutes, three times a day. After about three days I started noticing an big improvement and after a week my discomfort was completely gone. I havent taken any discomfortkillers for three weeks now and have no problems with discomfort while sleeping. Im so glad I bought this!
YVONNE
It is uncomfortable at first, but once you relax and let your head fall back and breathe, you get used to it. I noticed that I was sleeping better, and my hands were not going numb during the night anymore. I am not as stiff when I wake up in the morning, and the knot in my bottom and tightness and discomfort in my leg is just about gone.
scouselancs
I love this device! I bought this device and have honestly noticed significant improvement since using it. I am not back to normal yet but feel so much better. It is aligning my neck as it should. I use it 10 mins in the morning and 10 in the evening and in less than a week feel good. Highly recommended.
Strawberry Guitar
Being a natural sloucher, I feel like this product helped me stretch my neck. I followed the instructions and used the correct side for beginners. Even though my discomfort went away, I want to continue using this to better my posture.
I find it really easy to use. I usually just use it when Im in bed in the morning & at night.
Mary
I am impressed with how my neck feels after one use; not only in my neck but also in shoulders. I feel loose and more relaxed and this is great as I hold all my stress in my lower neck and shoulders. I would advise that you may feel slight adjustment discomfort and your neck may feel like jelly in terms of the immediate loosening of the muscles; especially if your have a stiff neck. Ill see how I feel during my next use. If I get that last tinge out Ill be very satisfied!
Anne Baylor
I ordered this and followed the instructions carefully. I was absolutely giddy when my neck discomfort was relieved after just one use. I used it agin the following two days and was completely back to normal. It can be used in two different positions, depending on neck size and amount of traction needed.
Catniss Cat
It has been one week so far. It seems to help! It is great to take a hot shower afterwards and let your muscles absorb the heat. I have high hopes that as my muscles start to relax that this little device will keep me in superior shape.
smora234
Got or my niece who has been diagnosed with military neck. Following others advice Oh, She lays on the floor, arms over head and started out 5 minutes at a time several times a day. Although it sounded like it was always comfortable to her from the first try. This combined with other therapy seems to have benefited her. When you are in discomfort you will try anything so try this! It just might work for you!
JPS
I can't say enough about how this product has helped me. If you use it on your bed, as I do, it sinks down enough that it is just the right height. It truly has been a God-send for me!
Aaryan F
This is a great product! 5 minutes a day, for the last 10 days. Some small muscle discomfort the first week. The realignment is great and no discomfort. Some reduced muscle stiffness. No more loud snapping when I rotate my neck that I had recorded on my cell phone.
Daniesza
Great to extend the cervical spine and release tension build up from craning over our gadgets
Madeline Goodwin
Instantly relieved discomfort. I used on my neck as normal. Then turned it upside down. And laid on it in different parts of my spine. And when I sat up to move it further down my spine my disc's cracked in place until I got to my lower back then I used yoga wheels. This is a great product. Do what's natural for you
susan
Too many purchases end up in the trash. Not this one. The relief I felt was immediate .. the first try. I used it for about 5 minutes the first time and soon graduated to 10 minutes on the concave side of the product. The discomfort in my shoulders has decreased. I don't know how this works, but I'm grateful it does.
THE LINDEN'S
Well it's been a few months now and this has helped me tremendously. I haven't had a misalignment since using it. I'll still get occasional soreness but it goes away in a day or two vs a week or two.
ceywden
As soon as I laid back on it, I heard/felt several pops in my neck. I look forward to continuing to use to see what kind of results I get after consistent use. Hoping this will help me get away from tolerating persistent neck discomfort and tight neck/shoulder muscle.
Chloe
It works! She loves the shape of it! Perfect to stretch her neck. Also doesn't like the smell, it seems the plastic material has to off-gas and it just smells super funny. Hope it fades! But the product works great!
Peridot
TMJ is very inconvenient, invisible to others, who barely question one's sudden preference for soup...and this device seems to relieve some of the resistance to relaxing one's jaw--or perhaps oneself?
Holly Whitworth
I was surprised at how sturdy this was. I was having debilitating headaches from poor posture and TMJ dysfunction. After one use, I was much more comfortable. I'm amazed!
Devon
I use the 10 minutes a day on the neck stretcher as a time to use my meditation app! So thats been a great opportunity to work on that area of my life, as well!
Peter
Ok, so I suffer from "text neck"- my own fault for bad posture over my electronics. I use it for about 10 minutes per day, right before bedtime, and an added bonus is that I have been doing some relaxation breathing while I am stretching on this to further mellow myself out. I am REALLY impressed with this!
mludwig
Occasionally when I lay on it, it slightly adjusts my neck alignment! Love that. Its gentle and effective. The longer Ive used it (about a month now) the more comfortable it feels. I will eventually try it the other way which is a little more intense than the gentler way Im using it. This is a great little buy!
K. Houlton
I did the full 10 minutes for my first try and it was awesome!This kept me from relaxing my neck completely and fully enjoying the stretch. But I was able to relax enough to get some relief. And when I feel THIS good after only 10 minutes, I am ever so hopeful that it will only get better from here on out!
Jess B.
Upon using it for the first time I could feel the tension I had been feeling for so long on my neck and shoulders was slowly released. I have since been consistently using this device as directions describe and yes I have felt a difference so much so I have bought one for my parents as well.
Mink
You might have to work your way up to ultimately get maximum discomfort relief- it's something to use regularly and for no more than 10 minutes a session. (This is also clearly stated in the instructions.) The first few times might make you sore, but trust me- it's going to help you. Definitely recommended!
Jennifer
It is hard. It is supposed to be hard; its not a pillow, its a therapeutic tool. I highly recommend this; it has given me a great deal of relief.
tdpuck02
When used correctly, I truly think there are some awesome benefits to using this pillow. I honestly believe it was the key component to relieving the discomfort my neck and shoulders. I don't often rate or review, but I felt compelled to share my experience with anyone who may be on the fence with this one. Give it a shot.
Hannah
They suggested this pillow for 30 minutes a day to correct the curve and posture. I thought it was bull hockey, but tried it anyway (I was desperate). I am glad I did. Just a week into using the device, my tension is gone and I can visibly see a difference in my neck posture.
Vincent S.
I can lay on this and the nerve will release, allowing feeling in my hand again. It's like having a chiropractor at your back and call. Obviously, this is not going to permanently fix my issues, but it does help.
J O
Simple device and it works. use as directed about 20-25 minutes, then roll off it and nap for about 20 minutes in same position without the device. It's not discomfortless but you can feel it working and the nap seems to keep the relaxation of the neck maintained. I also do some lower back stretches then I get up and I feel great, (taller lol) and most of my tightness and discomfort is relieved. I use this every other day if I can.
Charlotte A.
At a minimum, I use it two times a week for 5-10 minutes (but usually longer if I have time) and just lay on the floor with it tucked under my neck and the base of it pressed into my shoulders. You take deep, thoughtful breaths and let your head drop back. As you breath you'll feel your neck making space for the tension to pass through and be relieved. I highly recommend you try this product! It will change your sleep, spine and body for the better.
John Dopplick
I really do love this thing. I use estim, which are great, an inversion table, massagers, but this lately has become my most used thing. It's so simple and relieves so much discomfort. I have a really bad c5-c6 herniated disk along with a straight neck and this feels great just laying on the ground. Focus on your breathing and if you notice your neck stretching up and down then you got it and are relaxed.
NYC
Honestly I can't do the entire 10 minutes, but even a short session lying on this and the discomfort goes away, nearly completely. Enough that you can sleep...go about your day. Anyone with chronic neck discomfort should give this a try.
amara
GEM!!! Not only was it affordable, its portable and low tech. I use a yoga mat (make sure it's on a solid, hard surface) and lay over it slowly at the curve in the CENTER of my neck, chin slightly up. It's a little bit uncomfortable for a few minutes...but then as you relax, your neck does too! You should only use it for about TEN minutes, as directed and definitely do NOT sleep on it! Overall, GREAT item!...and I have even talked my Husband in trying it *thumbs up*
Dan
I've been pretty religious with 10 minutes a day. It's such a relief, coming home from a bike ride, and not neck discomfort. So glad I took the recommendation from a U-Tube chiropractor.
shell
My neck is pretty crunchy when I first lie on it and I do some slow head rolls side to side, it seems to really help relax and stretch out neck and shoulders which are always tight due to stress, tech neck and after effects of a car accident years ago.
Jon Mechling
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.
Joyful
This device works well at stretching your cervical spine. I use it 10mins, twice per day and it helps relieve discomfort & numbness from a pinched nerve in shoulder/neck. Overall it's a 5-Star product. All-in-all, glad I purchased this.
m p
This definitely is a must have!!!The first few days are rough/discomfortful with this, because your body isn't used to the stretching. But once you've used it a few times, it feels great. My back was absolutely killing me and when using this, I could feel my spine stretching. Something I wasn't able to do on my own.
Update: few weeks have gone by using this for 10 minutes a day! I can now move my neck to pop it if need be, and just the top of my back pops easily now for quick relief. So its slowly but surly working :)!!!
