is this for the neck or spine or both?

I use it specifically for neck but by stretching gently can get a good stretch on back and hips

Only traction for the neck, it think that i remember that the wording of its advertising is confusing.

Only for the neck. It's very easy to use to stretch and decompress your neck.

It is for the neck only. Which might relieve some pain down the spine depending on your physical issues, but it will only stretch the neck.

I am a physical therapist and purchased this device for my husband. It is for the neck primarily. You may have a small amount of traction in the top of the thoracic region (rib cage) it would be the first segments or three at the most. Be careful using it with this much tension as it may cause too much tension in the top of the cervical (neck) joints. Good luck.

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.

usually it is the smaller part but my husband has a thicker neck and he uses the bigger part. the point is to keep your neck level so your head is not tilted up or hanging down.

My husband had neck surgery and uses it on and around his back and spine. We own several brands. He said this is one of his favorites.

yeah I have used it on my neck and my upper shoulders. It has a setting displayed for neck and shoulder use.

Neither - it's soft and is just right that your head will be aligned with your spine .

This pillow is for neck support not back support. Very good for this desired use...neck...

It really works best to wrap around the back. As others mentioned, you can wrap around neck and shoulders but you would have to sit down because it will move around.

You can use it either way. I used it as a support for my neck. It keeps me from getting migraines.however, Idid get a softer one when I returned home.

I have both of the products. I haven't used them at the same time but use them both. I use the neck support at night while lying on the bed for about 15 minutes to a half hour. I really like it. The back magic adjusts my spine some what but the neck support really helps release the tension in my neck and shoulders.

I am 5-10. I also bought the medium. I believe the product's purpose is to provide lumbar support to your back. I may be wrong, but I don't think it is intended to support your neck. Looking at the shape, you can tell emphasis is on the lumbar portion of your back. For that purpose, I an very happy with mine.

OK for neck, but I would recommend Goldfaden neck product. Watch for it on sale on MY Habit; it will be about 1/2 price. l

Yes, it works for me who has a cervical spine problem. I find I have to lie with my head higher up on the pillow than normally in order to support my shoulders. I do find that readjusting the pillow is a little awkward for me due to the weight of the pillow versus a regular lighter weight foam pillow. I would purchase it again.

Yes, in my opinion it will work for all sleep positions for added neck support. Very comfortable and good support for minor to moderate neck issues. It is an excellent neck brace for everyday use as well. If you are active and have had different joint issues while using braces and supporters this is a great one for your neck/cervical spine. Nice to use around the house as well as out and about if needed. It really is an excellent neck brace for everyday use.

I use it mainly for my lower back. I do however feel a release of pressure all along my spine while inverted. It may well help your neck. I hope this has been of assistance to you.

This was a gift for my son. He has been using it on his back and absolutely loves it. He said the moist heat really helps his back. I do not know about the should / neck area.

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.
