My Review:
I purchased the neck buddy for my girlfriend that is a registered nurse and comes home complaining of neck/back pain. She often spends time stretching and doing what she can to alleviate her soreness so I thought this product might help. Set up was a breeze and it even comes with 2 different length attachments. She has incorporated the neck buddy into her nightly routine and loves it! She says that the product helps to rid tension in her neck and shoulders unlike anything she's tried so far.

For myself, a recent MRI showed some narrowing of the cervical spine, but was not severe enough for doctors to do anything about it. The muscles in my neck and lower back were extremely tight, stiff, and always painful. Many nights it was difficult just rolling over in bed because the lower back muscles did not want to move. Despite trying almost every natural and over-the-counter pain relief cream, none of them worked.

I tried everything to improve the pain including chiropractic adjustments and completing one of the best intensive physical therapy programs in the country. They only helped to a certain degree which was not anywhere near solving the chronic neck and back pain problems. I also tried acupressure and cupping (a Traditional Chinese Medicine technique of using cups to pull the muscles up which only gave temporary relief). I did not know of anything else that could possibly help with the pain.  One day while doing more research online for chronic pain, I stumbled upon the Neck Hammock.  All the reviews I read were amazing and people with much worse conditions than mine were having miraculous improvements.

It is very important to follow the instructions exactly, and to stop and readjust the Neck Hammock if it does not feel like it is in the correct spot (you will feel pain if it is not positioned correctly; I did that a couple times in the beginning).

After using the Neck Hammock, I feel a warm, soothing, relaxing sensation in my neck, shoulders, and lower back. These awesome feelings are from more blood flowing easier into those areas. When more blood can get into those areas, more oxygen and nutrients can also get into the sore muscles to help them heal. The most surprising part for me was that my lower back muscles also improved greatly along with feeling warm and relaxed from more blood flowing into those areas too.

My neck, lower back, shoulders, and scapulas feel like there is more blood flowing into them, there has been a sudden, drastic decrease in pain, the muscles are looser, and I have tons of hope for living without any chronic pain in the near future. The only remaining pain is much different from the chronic pain because it is not severe pain anymore.
