Does the band get in the way when laying on your back (stretching, sit ups, yoga etc) or does it naturally lay into the curve of your neck ? Thank you

I haven't noticed it getting in the way at all. The band is flexible so it may flop around but this hasn't been a problem. My main complaint is that they are too quiet in a loud gym.

The band is rather floppy along the back of your neck, so laying on the band will not move the earpieces in your ears. You will feel its presence though. In my opinion, the only time the band feels awkward is when wearing a fleece or vest that zips all the way up your neck and the collar unfolds to cover the back of your neck. I have to make sure the band fits inside the collar or else it bounces around when running.

I think it depends on the size if your head. It is not tight on me, but it is on my husband.It is a firm band, not flimsy

I do not lay on mine too often. I use it on my back while sitting in a chair most times but sometimes I recline in the chair. That is the only time I lay on mine. I am using it right now. It is giving me such wonderful penetrating warmth.

Hi Karen, I'm training for my first marathon. I have a slipped disc and IT band issues, and this is what best worked for me.I tried common stretching exercises and massages, nothing worked like this. So in my personal experience, after having it for almost a year, it's firm, it didn't change from the first use. Hope this answers your question.

When I spoke with my chiropractor about how it works on your neck. He said it brings back the natural curvature of your neck. I have two compression fractures in my lower neck from a wreck years ago and it has helped me tremendously. Not sure about your neck feeling out of alignment, unless a doctor told you so. My neck was very stiff and painful, also had no flexibility much. You just have to very careful and start slowly at first. Hope this helps.

It doesn't wrap around the neck very well if it is all unfolded. It does fold in half or in a third the size though but it is hard to secure it around the neck. If you are planning on going to sleep with it on your neck I suggest this one instead Sunbeam 885-911 Renue Heat Therapy Neck and Shoulder Wrap, Green as it is made to fit directly in that area. But I love this pad for my back and legs. A friend of mine had a bad car accident and bought this one and the one I suggested after getting out of the hospital. He falls asleep with that one on his neck and says it works great but uses this one for his shoulder/ back area. Hope that helps... It doesn't wrap around the neck very well if it is all unfolded.

looks like you put on B first, the band without extra elastic straps first in the middle of your belly. They you put on A slightly above and over B and then adjust the extra elastic bands on the sides. Then put C slightly lower than B and adjust the extra velcro straps. When it is on you are very supported. It can be a bit hard to sit in it. I have had to run to the bathroom at work and loosen it a bit if i am going to be sitting all day.

It might shift too much during yoga. Maybe for outdoor yoga? It's best for a pool/beach towel

best to lie on back. It "dips" down in the middle from the weight of your body, just like a hammock you would hang somewhere. so stomach-lying would put you in a "backbend" position.

When spread out, it goes on the shoulder/neck area. But you can also wrap it around your wrist if you have wrist pain.

The back adjusts fine. I have no problems with it at all . It is very comfortable for me. Remember everyone is different.

It is quite comfortable. I wear it under the band of my sportsbra. I've used it for HIIT and yoga and have had no issues.

Yes you can lay flat on your back. It is very comfortable. I am SO glad I got it.

There is a Velcro strap infront of your throat so you can make it as tight or as loose as you want. The collar does go from around my coratid artery around the back of my neck to the other coratid artery. I have strained my sternomastoid muscle (the muscle on either side of you throat) and this collar covers those muscles. Hope that helps!

A lot different. It's a lot harder and shaped specifically to fit your sacrum. My chiropractor showed me exactly how to place it. It works but you have to lay for twenty minutes to get benefit from it. I recommend you get the neck roll that compliments it. It places your neck in the correct position

I move the pillow up and down along my spine. When the nodes come closest together, it does not 'hit' per se so long as I have moved the pillow center to my spine. There is a correct distance between what I feel the nodes at their closest point and a comfortable proximity to my spine. Because the nodes do not protrude very far I think this is why I do not feel discomfort, rather, it works my Knots and Muscles very well similar to how a masseuse would with their knuckles.
