Using 10 minutes, then when I moved my neck, I heard some cracks which is a good feeling.

It wasnt comfortable the first time I used it, but thats only because of how much tension was in my neck. After a few minutes my muscles started to relax. So every morning, I turn on some meditation music and use this for 10 minutes before my daily yoga routine. If I gently roll my head side-to-side, it massages the muscles and works out some of the creakiness. The bump on the back of my neck has gone down a little bit, but mostly importantly, I am experiencing less neck pain throughout the day and night. Im glad I found it here on Amazon because its the same product Ive seen advertised on social media that is being sold for much much more.

eye use this because I had a pinched nerve in my neck. I cannot get relief from anything, and I ended up using this quite a bit for a few weeks. It was one of the only things that give me relief.

Ykes, started to notice the development of a forward head tilt and rounded shoulders posture (together with a creeping increase in the frequency and intensity of tension headaches!) — given the increasing amount of time having to spend in front of computer screens and personal devices, I can well imagine fast-forwarding 10 years down the road & seeing myself permanently locked in an exaggerated iHunch posture, with chronic neck pain & recurring brutal headaches! (omg, looking & feeling like my complaining grandpappy!) Countering this alarming health trajectory was the motivating factor behind the purchase of this traction device (as well as a multitude of other similar, but tested & returned, products) . Since receiving the Restcloud traction device, I have been using it for 3 times daily (approx. 10 mins each session) for the past 6 weeks... and my verdict, thus far? — its been really effective for me! When I first started out, my shoulder (esp. pec/scalene/levator scapulae muscles) were sooo darn tight, that even while lying supine my shoulders were still rolled forward — the muscular tension being so taut that it prevented the breadth of my entire upper back from lying appropriately flattened against the floor surface! Due to the amount of dysfunctional baseline tension, initial stretching sessions targeted to relax those habitually tense areas totally failed to feel comfortable or relaxing! Initially, while in the recommended stretch position, I could even feel my arms becoming mildly numb & tingly (probably caused by the brachial plexus being compressed by especially tight pectoralis minor muscles)! But I stayed disciplined with my self-prescribed daily stretching routine (plus, also kept extra focus on maintaining good posture habits throughout the day)... and now about 6 weeks later, I can totally feel a significant drop in the baseline level of dysfunctional tension being carried in my neck, shoulder, upper body areas! The personal results Ive gotten so far is enough to convince me into making stretching with the Restcloud traction device as part of a necessary, daily, well-being maintenance hygiene routine — just like brushing my teeth and eating a healthy breakfast! Stretching has been a no-brainer-easy & gentle process — I dont have to futz around with any complicated contraptions (omg, has anyone else experienced the fun of trying to work one of those neck traction hammock thingys???), nor get locked into some kind of time-suck routine! So you bet Im clearly a fan of this lil traction device. Hope this review helps other peeps trying to find effective countermeasures against their own iHunch related issues!...or maybe we should all just unite and collectively ditch our computers & personal devices?!? ;D (Usage Tip: to achieve an optimum shoulder tension release — I found it most effective to follow the stretching posture as depicted in the included direction-graphic, and to also CONSCIOUSLY focus on keeping the shoulders relaxed while at it)

I figured this was just another one of those crazy things I bought that wouldnt work. It brought amazing relief (which didnt last for long but Im hoping it will over time). Well see if my neck issue improves over time. Currently using for 5 min. twice a day but will work up to longer time and see if a permanent change happens.

Works well…satisfied with purchase

I have been having tremendous neck pain/strain from too much computer work lately and took a chance ordering this. It came the same day I was scheduled for a chiropractor appointment. My chiropractor actually had this exact same item and recommends it to his clients! I felt fancy telling him I had already purchased one! Lol. It is such a simple concept but works great. It helps to align your neck properly and stretch it. I was pretty nauseated from the pain my neck was causing and this helped greatly. It will take a few days but works. I was instructed to start out in short increments and to stop immediately if there was more pain. Ten minutes max, too. Check with a professional, of course, if you have complex neck issues!

I have had ulnar nerve entrapment at the shoulder since I broke my arm 3 years ago. I have done countless hours of PT, I do yoga, I still do my nerve glides, but it pinches when I lay down. 4 days of using this thing has brought me relief. I almost can’t believe it. I have done 10 mins every day for 5 days and today it feels so much better. This is worth trying for sure if you have neck, shoulder or back pain. It really does work.

This product really works. Ive had neck pain off and on for more than 20 years. Just using it for a few minutes several times a week, it helps realign my neck region. It took me about a week of daily use before I started noticing the effect. Fo the first 2 weeks, I used it every day for 10 minutes. It is really fantastic!

Not exactly what I was hoping for, but it does a better job of the little pillow I was trying to use before getting this. I like to use it in the morning and sometimes before bed. It gives a good little stretch and helps if you have curvature issues in your neck.
