RESTCLOUD Neck and Shoulder Relaxer, Cervical Traction Device for TMJ Pain Relief and Cervical Spine Alignment, Chiropractic Pillow Neck Stretcher (Blue)

I have been using this product for a couple of months. I tend to have tension/pain in my neck and shoulder that flares occasionally. This product does help stretch the area and reduces some of the pain. My posture has improved somewhat but Im not sure I can credit the device. Ive also just been more aware of my posture since I ordered the device. My husband attempted to use the device but wasnt able to get any stretch (hes a tall guy with an already curved neck). My son has used it as well, he gets a stretch but posture improvements have been inconclusive.

The product was recommended for my use by my physical Therapist. It has met my expectitations.

After using this for a few days my neck feels better. Initially I tried lying on it a little longer than the recommended 10 minutes at a time because it was so relaxing but I felt just slightly dizzy afterwards. The tiny acupressure knobs are not 100% comfortable but my guess is that the body will adjust. I will update this review after a month of use.

I figured this was just another one of those crazy things I bought that wouldnt work. It brought amazing relief (which didnt last for long but Im hoping it will over time). Well see if my neck issue improves over time. Currently using for 5 min. twice a day but will work up to longer time and see if a permanent change happens.

This pillow is awesome. A little learning curve, to find just the right angle but such a huge relief for neck tension. I end up with tension through my neck, traps, and back that is so bad I get migraines when it’s locked up. I use this pillow every night for a few minutes before bed and it helps relieve the pressure and relax my head/neck so I can sleep.

I was having terrible pain in my neck and shoulders from doing jigsaw puzzles. I have had damage to my C7 disk from a car accident, and doing the puzzles with my neck bent caused pain that I ignored until it became a serious problem. This gadget worked for me. After a couple of days with consistent use 10 minutes a days, I felt relief. I continue to use it daily, and I also use it whenever I get any little neck twinges. It relieves them imediately. I highly reccommend it!

Update: I promised to update, so here I am. MRIs show herniated discs in the neck. Neurosurgeon and rheumatologist gave this item the okay, though they didnt ask me much about it aside from looking at it. They didnt tell me to Stop using it, so I continue to do so when I can carve out the time. And isnt that really the issue? Finding a scant 10 minutes to give our bodies whats needed is somehow difficult when I can carve out 10 minutes to update a review. Priorities are out of whack, but Im helping others so theres that as a positive. No ridiculopathy after all, but the rest is still accurate. The biggest issue I have with this is that my head will Not stay 2.5 off the ground no matter how I try. I might mention that I Could have hypermobile Ehlers Danlos - having a tough time getting someone to assess for it. That just means Im extra flexible in useless places (elbows, neck, thumbs, pinkies), and my joints are looser than they should be. As such, my head is about 1 finger width off the ground when Im using this. Original: Ive had neck and shoulder issues since the age of 25. No accidents, just chose poorly from my gene pool. Arthritis, stenosis, spondylosis, ridiculopathy, thoracic outlet syndrome (had MRIs yesterday on 4 areas for the diagnosis of the last one - will correct if its something else - and to get the lay of the land with the rest), disc degeneration . . . I think thats everything. I just did my 10 minutes and Man did that hurt my arms, yikes! I can take a lot of pain of varying sorts, but the stretching variety I dont tolerate well. My fingers started doing all sorts of weird twitching and dancing so I released some of the tension by lowering my arms from a football field post configuration to more of a W kind of position. That was Intense! I have been assigned the stand with your back to the wall and slowly raise your arms as youre pressing them against the wall, exercise, and that is highly uncomfortable as well. With time it should get better. Having described the arm discomfort (to severely understate, ha!), my neck does feel better. I still have the sensation of my muscles being tie downs for my jaw, but it did release a little. Ill take it after nearly 25 years of pain! A little is a lot when you live with this day in and day out. For comparison, I have an inversion table. I feel more relief from this than I do my inversion table, and at 5% of the cost its an Excellent place to start. The inversion table does help with the rest of my spine, but the neck and shoulders are where I have the most tightness and trouble. If I reach under my car seat wrong, I wont be able to move my head more than an inch for three weeks. Ill do my best to return after a couple weeks of using this for an update. I tend to forget to use things if I start feeling better so no news is good news! PS: I got the blue sea monster variety.

I got one of these devices to help with chronic neck pain. Its good to use on an as-needed basis to help stretch out my neck. It stays put well but can sometimes be a little difficult to find just the right spot to relieve the pressure.

Not exactly what I was hoping for, but it does a better job of the little pillow I was trying to use before getting this. I like to use it in the morning and sometimes before bed. It gives a good little stretch and helps if you have curvature issues in your neck.

I originally got this because I’m starting to get a dowagers hump and I wanted to correct it. So far, no improvements there sadly. I do think it helps with neck tension and pain though, so it has its purpose.
