Neck Pain-TRY THIS!

Date: November 13, 2009

"I have bulging discs in my neck from a car accident several years ago which leave me waking with headaches nearly every morning and daily stiffness & pain when turning my head throughout the day. I have tried everything to ease it (including prescription medications). This device I have been using twice a day for twenty minutes a day & it helps tremendously. If you suffer from neck pain, you must give this a try!"

NICE	Date: October 21, 2009

"This lightweight relaxation tool has gone with me on several business trips since I got it and is regularly used in my everyday life. I carry all my stress in my neck and shoulders, so one minute relaxing with my head comfortably cradled in the Real-Ease tool, is a bedtime ritual I love. One warning. It felt so good the first time I used it that I stayed on it too long. I overstretched my tight muscles and was sore for a few days. This product has been very much worth the price."

Wonderful Results from Product!

Date: October 20, 2009

"I have always had problems with my neck and shoulders. I began to get a ringing in one of my ears and after I would use this product, the ringing would go away. This product releases any tension from the base of the skull to the shoulders. I love this product and would highly recommend it!"

Wow!	Date: October 15, 2009

"It's amazing that such a small plastic and foam device can result in immense relaxation and tension relief. It's not a miracle pain reliever but certainly better than anything I could have imagined. It works better than a TENS system, PT, and most massages. I make friends try it when they come over. They usually laugh at me at first, but then understand after they have tried it.
I have significant muscle tension in my neck and shoulders, bulging discs from C3-C7, and scoliosis in the upper thoracic area. This item adds another tool to my pain fighting toolbox without any negative side effects."

could be a little more sturdy

Date: July 2, 2009

"This tool is a little too low-profile for my neck. It barely stretches my neck. Although it is relaxing, it doesn't really solve or minimize any of my neck pain issues. It is a little flimsy and it's hard to get it and keep in in just the right place. If your neck is more curvy in the back this probably won't do much for you. I'm sure it would be great for people with a less curvy neck profile though."

Helps with tension headaches

"The stretching technique it uses helps release tension and relax your neck and shoulders. This is the area that usually contributes to tension headaches! I use mine daily!!"

Great for Computer Bound

Date: May 25, 2009

"If you are stuck at the computer all day like me and find yourself wearing your shoulders for earrings at the end of the day, this is the tool for you. It helps me undo all the distortion and tension in my neck and shoulders after a long day at the office. A little weird in the beginning but it works wonders."

Greatest De-stresser

Date: May 23, 2009

"I work a very physical job and have always carried tightness and knotting on the sides of my neck. The Real-Ease Relaxation Tool helps to release the stiffness and tightness in my neck and helps me to relax this area making my neck more supple and free of pain and tight muscles. It is quite a unique tool."

this is a great help

Date: May 21, 2009

"I have problems with my neck and shoulders. Just a few minutes of using this tool, either lying down or while sitting with my head back, helps loosen up my tense neck muscles which then helps loosen up my shoulders. This has helped prevent headaches and ease them. The only thing I don't like is the foam - I put it in a soft pillow case. It feels better and keeps it clean."

Helps relax neck and shoulders

Date: April 14, 2009

"It took me about a week to get the hang of how to position the Real-EASE properly under my neck. Now that I have, I used it most nights that I don't attend my yoga class. It does an excellent job of reducing the stress and tension in my neck and shoulders. I've even been known to fall asleep using this product."

Buy this product for neck pain relief!

Date: October 3, 2008

"This product is has helped relieve my neck and shoulder pain. I sleep with it every night(not recommended) and find tremendous relief. Today, I am purchasing some more for Xmas presents. My only complaint with the product is that the foam is scratchy on my neck but I solved that by putting it in a pillowcase."
