My Neck Was Sore After A Night Of Sleep On The Traction Pillow

Soreness after the first night on a new neck pillow is normal. That's why we recommend using the pillow gradually. It's even recommend to use the gravity sided gradually first. Now, don't take me the wrong way, you can be sore from using the gravity side also. We have found that this side is slightly easier to get used to than the "V" side. Soreness can actually be a good thing; then we know we're making change. I have a family member who feels like she's getting a neck hump or hunch-back. I told her along with the pillow, to start doing some head retraction exercises. I explained the to her - I don't know if she got it though? At least she's got the traction pillow...

Relief From Neck Soreness!

I recently strained my neck. I went to a chiropractor for the 1st. I also just started using my new neck pillow.  My chiropractor said I may have soreness because it was my first treatment plus I strained my neck "pretty good".  I know too that using a different pillow than I'm used too can cause some soreness also.  The actual pain is much better but I have a soreness or ache going on, how can I speed the recovery?

Neck Soreness

First of all, congratulations on doing all the right things.  Using a chiropractor along with getting one of our neck pillows is a great combination to get rid of your neck pain as quick as possible.  The next thing to do to speed the recovery and limit the soreness is to use ice.  For neck soreness try the tri-sectional cold pack which you can rest on your shoulders while sitting up.

This should diminish the soreness.  The other factor is time, and based on how badly you strained your neck may determine how long it takes to heal.  The fact that your already free from major neck pain is a good sign.  Make sure to use the pillow gradually, this will help you get accustomed to it; but with most it doesn't take long at all.

Something else I often recommend for muscle strains is biofreeze gel.  It is an all natural pain relief gel that works really well and that I prefer over taking meds.

Neck Pillow Success Story #137

Sara had been suffering with neck pain for over 4 weeks. She tried a number of different pillows and neck pillows to help relieve her neck pain. It wasn’t until she tried the cervical linear traction pillow that she awoke for the first time in weeks with no neck pain.

Some people, like Sara, may get results almost immediately, others it may take some time. In this individual’s case, she has tried neck pillows before and she has also seen a chiropractor. So, for Sara, it will be able to adjust to a new neck pillow or neck roll.

For a customer that has never used a neck pillow or neck roll, he or she may have some neck soreness when they first start using the traction pillow. It will also depend on the severity and amount of time of their condition.

So, in a lot of cases, people will take to this pillow right away, but it is also completely normal to have soreness in the beginning with this neck pillow too. In fact soreness or feeling good are both good signs that change is occurring. People with neck pain that are the same day after day is often a sign it will take longer to fix the pain.
