OPTP Original McKenzie Cervical Roll - (703) Pillow for spine and neck support during sleep by OPTP

Worst thing ever bought on Amazon. Just a roll made of sponge, totally bullshit, isn't worth 6572 JPY, I'll only pay 500 JPY for it!

Very easy to get used to and it has helped my morning neck ache immensely. Worth its weight in gold ! Slips easily into pillow.

Acabou com minhas dores no pescoço

I liked the fact this roll fits comfortably under the neck at night to support it so the head does not tilt during sleep leading to stiff neck and cervical disc pain. As a person who sleeps on their side at night I was susceptible to this difficulty without knowing it till I read about the problem and found this roll could help. The product does do what the company says it does and was shipped on time. I would recommend this to fellow side-sleepers like myself who want to alleviate their pain caused by this problem.

it works

I have really severe chronic neck pain secondary to 2 auto accidents (both whiplash injuries) which later resulted in neck surgery as I got older. I have suffered with chronic neck pain for 30 years. Sleeping at night is difficult because I will have severe neck pain if my neck is not in an anatomically correct position while I am sleeping. If I happen to deviate from the correct position during the night then I will wake up with severe neck pain & muscles spasms that will continue throughout the next day. This cervical roll was recommended to me after the second injury by my physical therapist. It has been a life saver as far as helping to control my neck pain. I am now on sixth cervical roll. You need to replace them every 1-3 years as the foam will soften up over time & not give adequate support. You place it inside your pillowcase on top of a SOFT (extremely important that it be a soft fluffy pillow) in a position that it be at the base of your neck when you lay your head on the pillow. You will know when you have it in the correct position as it will be comfortable with no strain on your cervical muscles. It will work for side or back sleepers. It keeps me for curving my neck (I am a side sleeper) while I am sleeping. I will not wake up with neck pain from sleeping in an incorrect position as long as I use this cervical roll. I was starting to wake up with severe neck pain that lasted throughout the day before I realized that I needed to purchase a new roll. My morning neck pain was gone after sleeping on the new cervical roll the first night. Sleeping & sitting in the correct positions will help control your neck pain better than anything else you can do in my opinion. Of course you also have to use good body mechanics when performing tasks & no heavy lifting.
