My straight neck likes this. I do notice sometimes it feels like my neck is "breathing" like I feel like my nerves and all that are just working well, there is a weird sensation. Hard to describe. Is it fixing it? Who knows. Hopefully I can get rechecked to find out, but for now I do notice a difference, especially with tension and pain with my neck/traps. I am also focusing on getting the right magnesium into my diet (vitamins etc). Bit early to tell, but I do recommend this. It feels good, and is a nice relief. Sometimes rough to use, but still nice overall, if that makes sense. Read more

My neck lacks the curve it should have and this is working to create that curve. My neck is already feeling better after only a few weeks of using it for 10 minutes per day. Read more
Made in USA, the Apex Cervical Orthosis is adjustable in height by 1" increments. The bottom of the firm, foam block with an angled top to fit underneath the user's shoulders and neck, has two sections that can be removed. The height of the foam can be 2.5" high, 3.5" high or 4.5" high. I am a 5'6" tall, 165-pound female who has a bulging disc at C4. I purchased this block to use to encourage my neck to decompress, bringing back essential blood flow and hopefully relieving some of the discomfort and damage in this area of my spine. The block is indeed 'firm' with little or no give, so it does not feel cozy or squishy in any way. Highly unlikely that with regular use it will break down at all. The directions for use of this product indicate the importance of using it under the direction of a professional. I am currently under the care of a doctor for my spine and neck issues. I did ask him about this, and he said "If it makes you feel better, but it may hurt at first." NOTE: The directions also indicate it's recommended you use this product only for 2 minutes the first few times, and then follow with a cool pack on your neck. Working up to a 20-minute session of use. There is also mention of rolling off of it versus sitting straight up after use. I am going to plan on using this twice a day for 2-3 minutes each day for a week before increasing the time. I am somewhat pained after using it the first two times, followed by the recommended cold pack. I do think individual results may vary, but it definitely works as promised and does place your neck and shoulders in the proper place for a stretch if you have the height correctly adjusted. (I took out the bottom 1" slab.) Overall, a good product and one I'd recommend to others with similar issues. If you are uncertain about 'how' this product works on your neck, check out YouTube for some videos by chiropractors to learn more about how it can increase blood flow and encourage healthy curvature of the neck.
