Neck and Shoulder Relaxer for TMJ and Cervical Spine Alignment

The neck stretcher is designed for individuals who experience prolonged head bowing, extended periods of sitting still, improper sitting posture, or stiff necks, to help alleviate neck pain and pressure, and naturally restore the neck's curvature. This ergonomic neck and shoulder relaxer features a curve that matches the cervical spine, providing vertical and horizontal support as well as curvature stretch for neck traction when lying down. This allows the cervical traction pillow to position the head in a way that reduces spinal pressure, supports the cervical spine, and helps restore the natural C-shaped curve of the neck.

The dense foam design of this device offers a sturdy, lightweight, and comfortable base that can be used on hard surfaces such as home floors, outdoor flat ground, and yoga mats. While it cannot be used as an ordinary pillow for the entire night, users typically require 1-3 days to adapt to this pillow, as their necks need time to become accustomed to the new corrective curvature. However, the improved comfort experienced after this adjustment period is well worth it.

While this neck stretcher should never cause pain, some initial discomfort may be felt as the device is used, due to the varying conditions of the cervical spine. Improper use or excessive time on the device may aggravate an existing condition or cause additional injury. If the user experiences pain, numbness, or dizziness, they should immediately discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.

To use the device, the user should locate the neck support around the middle of their neck, starting with gentle traction (with the convex side toward their head). They can then gently reposition the device up or down along their spine to find the most comfortable position. While lying down with bent knees and their hand beside their head, the user should allow their neck to settle further into the support, taking slow, deep breaths to help relax. They may notice their neck, trap, and shoulder muscles relaxing, as well as their posture becoming more aligned.

As with any new exercise, users should start slowly, using the gentle support level for 5 minutes before reassessing and, if comfortable, progressing to additional 5-minute increments. If the user feels they can use more neck support, they can utilize the strong traction neck support (with the concave side under their head).
