Firm or Gentle? Your Choice

Same pillow, two ways to use it. The removable sleeve changes the feel.

FIRM

Without Sleeve

Direct pressure on muscles. You feel the bumps working on tight spots.

Use when: You want deeper muscle targeting and are comfortable with the pressure.
GENTLE

With Sleeve

Softer feel on skin. Same stretch, less intensity from the bumps.

Start here: Recommended for first-time users or if you prefer a gentler session.

How to Use Your Neck Stretcher

Simple setup. No assembly, no batteries, no complicated instructions.

1

Place on a firm surface

Floor, yoga mat, or firm bed. Avoid soft surfaces like couches or thick mattresses.

2

Lie back and position your neck

Place the curved edge at the base of your skull. Your head rests in the cradle while the bumps target tight muscles.

3

Relax and let gravity do the work

Close your eyes. Breathe slowly. Let your body weight create the stretch. No pushing or forcing.

Don't feel anything? That's completely normal. The stretch works subtly over time.
4

Start with 2-5 minutes daily

Build up gradually to 10-15 minutes as your neck gets used to it. Use while watching TV, before bed, or during breaks.

Week 1

Getting used to it. Start slow. 2-5 min daily.

Week 2-3

Most users notice improvement. Tension eases.

Week 4+

Consistent use builds lasting results.

Tip

Use before bed for the best results. Many customers report falling asleep faster after a session.

Common Questions

Is it supposed to feel this hard? ▾
Yes, the firmness is what creates the therapeutic stretch. Start with the sleeve on for a gentler feel. Most users adjust within 3-5 sessions. If it feels too intense, use a thin towel over the pillow for extra comfort during your first week.
How long until I notice results? ▾
Most users notice improvement within 1-2 weeks of consistent daily use. Some feel relief after the first session, while deeper tension release builds over time. Stay consistent. 5 minutes daily is better than 30 minutes once a week.
Can this help with headaches, TMJ, and posture? ▾
This device targets the suboccipital muscles at the base of your skull where tension headaches and TMJ tension often originate. By releasing neck tension and supporting cervical alignment, customers report improvement in headaches, jaw tension, and overall posture with regular use.
How do I position myself correctly? ▾
Place the pillow on a firm surface, lie back, and position the curved edge at the base of your skull (not your neck). Your head rests in the cradle while the bumps target tight muscles. If you feel pressure on your throat or chin, slide down slightly.
I don't feel anything while using it. Is it working? ▾
Yes. Not feeling anything is completely normal. The stretch works gradually using your body weight. Some feel mild tingling or warmth, others feel nothing during use but notice less tension afterward. Benefits build over days and weeks of consistent use.
