Cervical Traction Device for Neck Pain Relief, Adjustable Inflatable Neck Stretcher Neck Brace, Neck Traction Device for Use Neck Decompression and Neck Tension Relief (Gray)

First of all, this CRABCLAW device is not some magical cure, but it can (and does for me) provide temporary relief for certain types of neck issues. For example, I'm a senior citizen and have spent a lifetime working out in various gyms. Over the past 10 years, my neck vertebrae have begun to compress so badly, that now, whenever I turn my head left or right, it is painful (like a deeply ingrained headache). Just sitting down and watching TV on a couch becomes painful in my neck area, or worse yet, while seated by my computer. Sure, I've tried heating pads and they might provide temporary relief, but the moment you remove the heat - well, the pain returns. So what to do? I saw this Cervical Neck Traction Device (boy, now that sounds like a fancy medical term, doesn't it) on Amazon, and at that low price, I had to order it. Now I was fully anticipating this device to be another cheap piece of junk (like snake oil)- given it's low price. When it arrived (quick shipping), I began to experiment with it. The first thing I discovered is "NOT TO USE THE VELCRO NECK STRAPS" (there are 2 of them). Instead, just attach the U-shaped device to your neck and begin pumping. What occurs then is that the majority of stretching (to use that term), occurs behind your neck, with a little on the sides. Now, if you were to fasten the velcro straps, what I found was that as the device inflates, the velcro straps can irritate the front of your neck, but more so, the device inflation on the sides "can" or "might" apply pressure to your carotid artery, thus giving you a different type of headache or discomfort. I noticed this right away, and was pleasantly surprised when I discovered that the device works better with the velcro straps not engaged. The big question is, "does it work?" Well, yes it does - to a point! It's not going to cure your headaches, but it will provide relief. Right now, as I am typing this on my desktop PC, I'm wearing mine and I have no neck pain at all. It provides added relief when you're sitting at a computer because what often occurs is that your head is being either forced down or up (depending on how you have your seat adjusted). That can provide additional pressure and give you headaches. So, this device has surprised me. I wear it for around an hour while watching TV, and also wear it while seated at my desktop computer. It provides added relief when needed. Well, what about the negatives, some might ask? Keep in mind that this device is not a cure-all or permanent fix. It does what it was advertised to do - and again, wear how I recommended it. The only negative that I can add is that the the black hand rubber inflation device (that you squeeze), easily comes off while depressing, so keep that in mind. So given its ridiculously low price and the fact that it does provide temporary relief, I find this CRABCLAW Cervical Neck Traction Device to be a pleasant surprise. That's why I'm giving it the full 5 stars. As always, your mileage may vary (YMMV) - everything is subjective.

I bought this device to help me with my neck pain and cracking. I had purchased four other devices to help me with this issue and I was desperate and in alot of pain. I really felt like for the price I had nothing to loose. I was so surprised when I began using this device the relief it has given me. I use it about 4 times a day now between 5 and 10 minutes at a time and as blown up as I can stand it. This will really help and its so easy to use. So I am getting better. Love this device.

That's about it. My situation was not resolved but the product works well as advertised. Some pain relief and restored flexibility achieved. It is a strange sensation to have y our jaw used to expand the neck vertebrae, but stretching traction is achieved. It is as comfortable as possible, and easy to inflate/deflate using the valved pump bulb. Those who missed how to use valve have not had success. Ignore those reviews. This item works!

I just got this and use it for the first time. Right out of the box it feels much smaller and tighter than the one I had before. The straps are choking me and it feels like they won't last long . After few minutes I'm not comfortable at all. Might be ok for a smaller person. I don't have any other option than give it a chance and see if it does the job. Update after the first use. It did provide some relief from the pinched nerve, but I couldn't wait to take it off.

Did just what I needed. I have a cervical stenosis that was giving me pain issues in my shoulder and right arm and numbness/tingling in my right hand. Using this device 25 min/day four or five days a week, after dinner and before bedtime, combined with targeted stretching and strength exercises cleared up my issues. I had been doing the stretching/strength work but the problem did not go away till I added in the traction pillow. After using it for 2.5 years (well outside of their warranty period) it developed a leak. I contacted their customer service group at the email address provided in the manual and received a response the same day. They helped me with the problem. Great product and great support.

I fell and had 3 herniated disks in my neck. I bought this as a desperate attempt for pain relief and it helped take the edge off my excruciating pain when I needed it the most between pain management appointments.

Works very well. Helped my pinched nerve pain. Highly recommend
