Soft Foam Neck Brace Universal Cervical Collar, Adjustable Neck Support Brace for Sleeping - Relieves Neck Pain and Spine Pressure, Neck Collar After Whiplash or Injury (2.5" Depth Collar, M)

I travel frequently for business, and the search for a perfect travel pillow has led me to take a shot on a lightweight cervical collar approach recommended by some travel vloggers instead. This was exactly what I needed! Far more supportive than even the most high-end travel pillow while taking up much less space and still very lightweight, this is ideal for long flights where a travel pillow just doesn't quite offer enough chin support. The foam still has some give, but it does a fantastic job of positioning the head so the awkward nod of drifting to sleep doesn't disturb neighboring seats. The fabric is pleasantly soft. If you're not comfortable with slight pressure around your neck, you might not enjoy this approach, but once you're used to it, it's hard to go back to the regular style squishy horse shoe travel pillow design. Pay close attention to your neck circumference when picking the right size, you might benefit from going a size up if you're on the edge of the size range. This has earned a treasured place in my carryon from now on.

My neck is fine and I don't need the support that this collar provides. What I do have is severe sleep apnea which requires that I use a full face mask. When I wear the collar at night, it keeps my lower jaw from opening and prevents my head from slumping towards my chest. As a result, I get a good night's sleep with no apnea "events" and minimal air leakage from my mouth. I've tried elastic straps and other gadgets to prevent air leakage but none of them even come close to the effectiveness of this neck brace. My primary care physician is impressed with my repurposing the neck brace and encourages me to keep using it as long as I continue to get excellent results.

Seems a little tight , but think it will take some time in getting used to

Feels good but has a defect that takes away from its purpose. I cannot figure out how it’s worn the end piece is large and sticks out.

Great value at a great price. Works well to keep neck aligned and prevent over rotation.So helpful and like the black option for daily use to maintain clean appearance.Does the job intended to do!

I was looking for relief as my neck and shoulders muscles were very tense and felt weak. I had recently injured my left shoulder, rotator cuff. I was given a sling, but that aggravated it and caused my back to tense in my neck and my shoulders. I used heat to help relax the tension. I was in excruciating pain.I had gone to see a doctor and was referred to PT. In the meantime, I purchased a back brace to help support my back. The back supporter helped, but I was beginning to have trouble lifting my head up. Also, I was getting tingling in my fingers.I went to PT and was put in a traction apparatus and it helped. I only went twice and only on the apparatus once. I was still in pain still using heat to help the tension.I looked into a neck brace and I'm happy I did. This brace is a lifesaver! I put it on and what a difference it made! I had it on for about an hour and the relief was immediate.This brace is simple and it is so comfortable. It is relieving the pain in my shoulders and helping my head from tilting downward. The brace is soft, but holds its shape for ultimate comfort. I am very pleased with my purchase.

Have nerve problems and disc disease in my neck and I hoped to be able to sleep with no pain of pinched nerves but it is not possible. Might not be able to correct without surgery. It felt good but it did get extremely hot and I did start to sweat in just a few minutes. I don't think that it's comfortable without a place for the chin. It will hold the neck but it gets so very hot. At least if you don't have a very long neck it will fit but it's not very comfortable at all.

Takes a little getting used to, but does the job in the end. I had to figure out how best to fit the cut outs for my ears.
