What Can I Do Right Now For My Neck?

So you have some neck pain, and it’s the middle of the night? Do some muscle work and stretches to help.

These can often be done right in the bed! 1st, start by doing some lateral bends bring one ear to that shoulder. Tilt the head forward or back depending on where the pain is.

For example, pain on the right side of the neck might feel best from stretching it to the Left. Tilt the left ear toward the left shoulder.

Neck Pain Sleeping In A Bad Position

I always sleep next to my wife. Although it’s usually very nice (especially if it’s cold), sometimes one of our neck's gets in a bad position or I end up on her pillow or something similar...

Anyway, I did just that. Actually, I was on her pillow and my neck was in a bad position! I ended up moving to my pillow. I rotated it from the Gravity side back to the Traction side, which took my pain away.

We all often cuddle up to our spouse, make sure you are in a good position to begin with. The chance you awake to a painful neck are a lot less.

Sitting Outside In The Sun Is The Best Way To Get Your Vitamin D

It is. Just like it is best to get your nutrients tomorrow real, whole food, you get more better vitamin D from the sun. Now depending on your global latitude will let you know when during the year you will get the most,

Here in Florida, if you are south of Orlando you will probably get Vitamin D all year. But keep in mind that the higher the angle of the sun, the more intense the rays.

Basically, in the summer, the sun is high over head making the rays stronger, and therefore giving more vitamin D.

Remember, if you feel that you are getting burnt then cover up.

I Had A Headache From Using A very Flat Pillow.

Very flat pillows tend to flatten the spine when you are on your back and tilt the spine sideways when on your side.

What does that mean? Your neck should actually have a "C" curve viewing it from the side, and it should be strait up and down when looking at it from the front or back.

When things are not in the normal/correct alignment we often get nerve pressure, and that can mean pain!

I am desperate for some sleep and physical relief...

Hello there! I want you to know how delighted I am to have received the Cervical Traction Pillow two days after ordering it. I am eager to use it tonight, and because I am desperate for some sleep and physical relief, I intend to spend the entire night on the pillow. (My rationale is that I've been in severe pain anyway, so I doubt the pillow will make a significantly negative contribution in that regard.) Yes, I am optimistic that this custom pillow will assist in ultimately eliminating the post-whiplash pain which has been keeping me awake for some time now, and put me on the road closer to recovery. By the way, insomnia due to pain is a spirit-soul-body killer, I can tell you - I need restorative sleep! Thanks again."- Karen. C , 04/05/2008 West Hartford, Connecticut www.scrapartistry.com

Best Pillow I have Tried

BEST pillow I have EVER tried! Hello, I purchased the cervical traction neck pillow from you earlier this past week, asked for it to be delivered before I leave town, and received it ONE WEEK EARLIER than I asked for, 4 days earlier than projected by FED EX!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Not only that, this is by far the BEST pillow I have EVER tried! I have ordered 4 pillows claiming to reduce neck pain in the past 6 months from different distributors, and the cervical traction neck pillow is the only one that has succeeded. Thank you for your exceptional customer service, and your exceptional product. I will recommend you to ALL of my friends!!!!!!!! D.C, 01/05/2008 Eagan, Minnesota

I have now been using it for 6 days and feel like I have a new neck...

"I received my Arc4life pillow a week ago and am very impressed. After the first night of using it, I felt considerably less pain in my neck, upper back and shoulders. I have used several other chiropractic pillows that were about double the price, so I was a little skeptical about the Arc4life pillow helping me. But I decided to give it a try. I have now been using it for 6 days and feel like I have a new neck. This pillow helped me more than going to the chiropractor and doing physical therapy (which I had been doing for a year). Thanks for a great product. "

Best Neck Pillow I have tried

"The first time I lay on the pillow, I could actually feel my sinuses drain immediately. My breathing during the night has improved substantially. Most importantly, the effect it has on my neck pain has been dramatic. I wake up with my neck completely relaxed. I am sleeping better than I have in months. My range of motion has improved. Everything just feels better. Another great thing about this pillow is its standard size and shape. It actually looks like a "normal" pillow on the bed (unlike all the other neck pillows I have tried).
