Does it really help in eliminating the neck and shoulder pain? Thanks

Yes it does! May take a few times but mine helped pretty quick. I don't use it consistently, just when my neck starts hurting again.

It helps to stretch tight muscles in the neck and shoulder area. I first use a heating pad to warm the muscles, then use the traction. Yes, it's helped me.

It does somewhat Zak. Combine it with a lot of neck stretching and you will do so much better. This devise actually stretches the neck upward. So unless you do other stretches such as side to side, you might still have pain and stiffness. This is regardless of herniated discs or not. Either way, stretching is the key to some relief and a pillow under the neck when you sleep on your back.

Yes. At least it does for me. Tremendously so. The decompression of the nerves in the neck as it stretches the vertebrae (the neck bones) apart and allows space for the pinched and angered nerves to relax, readjust, realign allows for pain relief.

The Teeter Hang-Up really helps with Neck Problems including occipital, which I have. Even more affective on Thoracic, but yes Cervicals do get relief.

I really do believe that this helps with correcting forward head posture. I had xrays done about 3 months apart from the time I started using this product and chiropractic care along with some physical therapy to strengthen muscles back in the neck area. My neck went from a forward curve to visibly straight on the xrays and I am willing to bet it will keep on going with more use. If you use this and work on maintaining correct posture while sitting, I think that it definitely helps. But make sure to try to work on it everyday

Absolutely yes. I have cervical (neck) issues and this pillow makes a world of difference for me. It is designed to give the perfect contour and support. Wouldn't want to go back to living without it. Hope this helps!

If the pain is muscular, it might help. It's eased some of the stress in my back when I sit for long periods. Depends on the type and reason for pain, and posture when sitting. I also use it as a back support (behind my lower back) when I'm sitting on the couch watching TV or reading. It's great for that in my case.

It might and yes it can, but it won't solve your upper back issue. I'd recommend seeing a reputable chiropractor to help you acquire the best course of action to properly correct your spine which us out of alighment causing a hunched spine.

No, I don't think so. It may make you more aware so that you can adjust your posture. It's main purpose is to hold the magnets over your shoulder area. It's more about healing than posture.

I don't use these for neck, shoulder or wrist relief. I guess I look at it from the stand point of use it where it fits you comfortably. I have problems with my thighs being in a great deal of pain some times, or I will have problems with my upper arms/shoulders. I like these, because they cover a large space, and they work for my situation. I would try them, and see if they work for where your pain is. I do know that they made these to mostly fit the back of the neck area, but that didn't stop me from trying them elsewhere!

Not directly. It gives a really good stretch to my neck which helps relax my jaw...crazy answer, but the best I can do.

Probably could help if you use it consistently and properly. When I first started using this it was quite painful and I can really see the difference after a few months. My chiropractor highly recommended it and I trust him.

No it doesn't. (I am told that I still snore) It only eases neck and shoulder pain.

yeah I have used it on my neck and my upper shoulders. It has a setting displayed for neck and shoulder use.
1637898
yes i have been using it for a couple of months now and i see a big difference in the firmness of my neck. i intend to continue to use it.

Yes. Still works fine to help you retrain muscles/positioning/posture. Don't need any of those. i don't use any and have received benefit.

Often times the shoulder and upper back are related to the neck...at least mine are. So if the neck is in alignment then the rest should be helped.

I don't really know. It seemed to help my neck for a while. But just for a while. My son is now trying it on his back. I don't know if the thing really works or not.

No. The width of this device is too narrow to cover both shoulders at once. Check the size of the shipping box in the description if you want confirmation. This works great on the neck.
