I have had neck issues since my undergrad days back in the mid '80s. After teaching for 27 years, I also have upper back issues. I ordered this item to hopefully address the pain I feel almost constantly.

I have suffered from cervical spondylosis for over 20 years. I cannot believe how such a simple little thing provides such great relief. I do it every night 10 - 15 minutes right before I got to sleep, and then another session mid day if I need it.

I have thoracic outlet syndrome (and honestly way too many other physical problems) and this reminded me of some of the stretching devices they used for my neck/shoulder issues in physical therapy so I purchased it. My neck felt great the next day. 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.

I started binge-watching a TV show on my phone, and after a few days of constant viewing, I started to develop a very painful case of "text neck." The pain had started to radiate down the side of my neck and into my shoulder, and it was time for some kind of intervention! To say that it was "instant" relief may be too hyperbolic, but I was in significantly less pain after the first day of use. I used it twice that first day, and then I continued use once daily for a few more days. By day three, I was virtually pain free.

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!!! So much in fact this is the second one I bought. I bought one for my elderly father as well. We both suffer from excruciating migraines. Since using this I have had less frequent headaches and so has he. When I feel a really bad one coming on I take my medication and grab this and within 10 to 15 minutes the headache is either gone or I am getting relief.

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.

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!

I've had neck issues for years, with 4 cervical herniations. As a result, on a nightly basis, I lose feeling in my left hand. Since I have started using this (2x/day for about 10 minutes each), I have significantly fewer issues at night. I still have issues, but they are improved, and, in the middle of the night, if I have a particularly severe numbness I can lay on this and the nerve will release, allowing feeling in my hand again.

I've only had this device for a few weeks and I love it already. I have a “reverse curve” where my cervical spine Is curved backwards. I was also in a horrible car accident 3 years ago and have pain in my neck/shoulders 24/7. My latest MRI also showed that I now have arthritis in my neck. At times it's excruciating and the headaches I get are debilitating. I LOVE THIS THING! Now, I just lay on this device and after about 15 minutes or so, the headache actually goes away or subsides considerably. It's amazing. My boyfriend has been using it as well for his neck - he does jiu jitsu and constantly has his neck choked during training practice. He saw how it has helped me and now he uses it daily and LOVES it as well.

In this craziness of 2020, I am having the worst TMJ pain of my entire life. It is affecting all of my life. The tension down my neck and shoulders and even into the middle of my back is terrible. I know that it gives me relief from tension for a period of time immediately after I use it. It helps me fall asleep faster if I use it before sleep. The 10 minutes that I lay on it are wonderfully relaxing. I focus on my breath and feel the tension ease out of my neck, back and shoulders. I can't really explain how amazing it is. I love it and would recommend it for anyone with neck, shoulder or back pain related to tension.

Ok, so I suffer from "text neck"- my own fault for bad posture over my electronics. Feels like it is erasing years of bad posture on my part. It feels good when I am laying on it, and the effects last beyond use. 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! Plus it looks like a piece of art- so cool looking that I leave it out to admire it, and then it reminds me to stretch every night!
Sassy K.
If you hold stress in your neck or upper back, take a few minutes to try it out... I’m sure you won’t want to move away from the support it provides! Don’t believe me? Try it! I did, and I’m very happy with the results!
Sarah N.
Relives stress almost immediately! As a medical student who spends hours on end studying with terrible posture, I can attest to the fact that this product helped me to rest my neck and diminish pain in only a few minutes.
Jacob B.
I did it for the full 10 min.. then WOW!!!. I removed the pillow and lie flat on the floor for a few seconds..and stretched my arms up and then POP POP POP. My spine cracked between my shoulder blades ...not just cracked ...adjusted .. when I stood up I could feel the difference in the release in tension from my upper back my neck and even my jaw. I have a hard labor job. I use it before work for 10 min and before bed for 10.. and it's made a world of difference. It's so subtle but a massive difference at the same time.
Patrick L.
Getting five stars from me because it is so effective at relieving the pain from migraine and tension headaches. The pillow hits 2 pressure points solidly, the ones at the base of the neck and skull, and apply consistent pressure to both simultaneously.
Macy M.
This definitely is a must have!!! I’m a female, mid 30’s, 5’-6” 120 lbs, with pre existing back issues dating back to middle school. Being home more with the kids and sitting a lot due to the chaos in the world these days, my back pain progressively got worse. 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.
Joanne H.
Great for stretching my neck and helping me relax. I work as a massage therapist, have suggested clients consider purchasing one also.
Charlotte A.
I didn't think this could be the solution I was looking for but I was willing to give it a shot.Most importantly, I needed something portable. Man, am I happy this lil futuristic tsunami pillow exists (not it's real name, I give it nicknames cuz it's just so cute and weird lookin!) I'll have to travel with it and have one in my life forever from here on out
Amy C.
NeckFlexi traction pillow is not only the perfect size and weight for travel (it's so light!) but it does just as good of a job, This product really does make a difference in my life in relieving pain in my neck as well as numbness/pain in my arms. I also have the version of the NeckFlexi traction pillow that comes with a washable pillow case and heating function which is my all time favorite / go to whether at home or on the go. Thanks to NeckFlexi for offering quality products that make a real difference in people's lives!
Bea B.
For 5-10 mins. This has been the best relief I have ever had. Twenty years dealing with the neck pain has so far been relieved like never before. I’m so happy.
Ivonne T.
I’ve been told I have arthritis in my neck and a collapsing/degenerating disc. This has given me the best, quickest relief I have never experienced. I’m so relieved that I found this and was feeling pretty confident that it would work from reading the positive reviews. I would highly recommend anybody reading this give it a chance. Wow-days and weeks of neck pain was remarkably relieved after the first use. I couldn’t believe it. Still can’t. I use it every morning, before I get out of bed, then, every night, before bed time. I’m so happy.
Madeline G.
Instantly relieved pain. 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
Jonathan R.
Simple device and it works. I have a neck issue and this blue device which I purchased as a last resort works the best for my lower neck disc problem. I 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 painless 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 pain is relieved. I use this every other day if I can.

I’ve had shoulder and neck pain ever since college rowing, when there were days I would wake up unable to move my head. A week or so ago, it got really bad again. It doesn’t help that I’m a side sleeper, have awful posture, sit at a desk more than ever, and tote around a two year old who is built like a tank. I went out for a run one day and was so sick from the pain that I was vomiting on the side of the trail. I could barely walk home, trying to keep my head from moving, and have had a debilitating headache ever since. If you have neck pain, and anything I’ve said sounds like what you struggle with, this may be the magic you’re looking for.
Jayrine B.
This has significantly helped me. I have been using this for about two days and I not only rest on it but I squeeze to the sides and rotate while pressing against the sides so that I get a slight message around the bottom sides of head just behind the ears. After doing this my tinnitus has disappeared and swelling on the sternomastoid muscle has decreased. Five years of discomfort and pain gone. Amazing!
Sabrina R.
This device has changed my life in such an incredible way. I am challenged with transverse myelitis at the C3 level. I cannot express my deepest gratitude for the relief this product has delivered to me. My deepest gratefulness to the inventors of this life changing device. Thank you.
Devon C.
This product has been great, thus far! I have always had very tight/painful shoulder and neck issues. Probably from sitting and staring at my computer all day for work. I have used this thing every day for 10 minutes for the past two weeks and when I went to my chiropractor this week, he said, “Wow! Your neck is feeling much less ‘angry’!” I use the 10 minutes a day on the Neckflexi as a time to use my meditation app! So that’s been a great opportunity to work on that area of my life, as well!
Mikaela L.
Upon using it for the first time I could feel the tension I had been feeling for so long on my neck and shoulders slowly release the pressure and tension. 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. During the day and night they use their phones all the time and complain of neck and shoulder tension so I bought them one to put this to the test. Dad uses this device and now rushes to use it every night to relieve the pain and tension after a full day of being in that constant position on his phone. It slowly realign one's neck and then everything else starts to work itself out.
Jessica T.
I can’t even describe the pain I was in two months ago. I woke up to The upper center of my back in so much pain it shot down my arm and I could hardly move. I was like that no matter how I sat for 4 days. My X-rays showed my neck was almost curving forward. I resorted to see if there could be anything possible to help me fix it from home and let me tell you, this WORKS. I lay on it for 10 ish min a couple times a day and also use it when I’m laying on the couch watching tv for further neck support and to kind of train my neck back in the “right” place. Very happy with my purchase!!
Joyce J.
This device works well at stretching your cervical spine. I use it 10mis, twice per day and it helps relieve pain & numbness from a pinched nerve in shoulder/neck. Overall it's a 5-Star product! All-in-all, glad I purchased this.
Kenny
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
Zackary F.
This simple little neckflexi is so easy to use, 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.
Rody C.
Now about 6 weeks later, I can totally feel a significant drop in the baseline level of dysfunctional tension being carried in my neck, shoulder, upper body areas!
Mary Ann L.
Since receiving the NeckFlexi traction device, I have been using it for 3 times daily (approx. 10 mins each session) for the past 6 weeks... and my verdict, thus far? — it's been really effective for me! When I first started out, my shoulder (esp. pec/scalene/levator scapulae muscles) were sooo darn tight, that even while lying supine my shoulders were still "rolled forward" — the muscular tension being so taut that it prevented the breadth of my entire upper back from lying appropriately flattened against the floor surface!
Divine R.
started to notice the development of a "forward head tilt" and "rounded shoulders" posture (together with a creeping increase in the frequency and intensity of "tension headaches"!) — given the increasing amount of time having to spend in front of computer screens and personal devices, I can well imagine fast-forwarding 10 years down the road & seeing myself permanently locked in an exaggerated "iHunch" posture, with chronic neck pain & recurring brutal headaches! (omg, looking & feeling like my complaining grandpappy!) Countering this alarming health trajectory was the motivating factor behind the purchase of this traction device (as well as a multitude of other similar, but tested & returned, products) .
