Customer Reviews of Arc4life Cervical Linear Traction Neck Pillow
Customer Review: I love this pillow
Summary: 5 Stars
I have have been diagnosed with military neck (loss of curvature in the neck) for over 15 years. The chiropractor wants me to lie on a rolled up towel periodically but who has the time. Often, I will wake with a stiff neck making it difficult to rotate my head. I spend all my time at work seated and looking down which could be the cause of my troubles.
I looked at a number of products and finally settled on the Arc4life traction pillow. I'm very pleased with the quality of the product and it's gentle action. From day one I've slept very comfortably with it and highly recommend it to others experience neck discomfort.
Only negative experience is that my mother in law tried it out when she came to visit and she liked it so much I gave it to her and ordered 2 more for myself. The pillows aren't cheap, but when compared to therapy and even high end pillows, they are a bargain.
Customer Review: Very comfortable
Summary: 4 Stars
I've had neck pain/spasms/stiffness for 33 years.
I've been using this pillow for approximately 6 weeks. I mostly use the traction side. I didn't need a break-in period and used it the whole night from the start. I start my night on my back, but sleep mostly on my side. While it's very comfortable either way, I think this pillow is best suited for back sleepers. That being said, I like it enough that I wouldn't stop using it. I can feel the traction when I lay on my back and it helps relax my neck muscles before I go to sleep.
It hasn't significantly reduced my pain, but I believe a back sleeper would derive more benefit just because they'd spend more time in traction. It doesn't contribute to my pain and that's a plus because most pillows make my neck feel worse.
I don't regret my choice and probably would buy it again.

Customer Review: Nice pillow, it works
Summary: 4 Stars
I've had this pillow for about 3-5 months now, using it every night. I was having issues, while sleeping on my back my head would turn all the way to the side and when I wake up I was have very bad neck/back pain (lasting for many days/weeks). This pillow helps keep my head from turning to far to one side. I also sleep on my side, and there is a nice little pocket off to one side where I can rest my head and my ear is not squished. The pillow takes a bit of getting used to, but you can turn it around to get less traction or more on the other side. It does seem to be breaking down a bit more, maybe I've just totally adjusted to it and it only appears to be "softer" providing less traction. Regardless, my head is no longer turning to far to one side as I'm on my back, so I'm pleased with the purchase. I would buy another one.Customer Review: Great Pillow
Summary: 4 Stars
I have a slight reverse curve in my neck and routinely get migraines. I purchased this pillow hoping it would help and have been using it for about a month now. At first it made my neck hurt more and made my neck very stiff because my neck was not used to being in that position. After a few days though, it made my neck feel really good. My neck actually hurts more now if I do not use the pillow. We will see how much it helps my headaches long term, since it takes time to work.
The one negative I have is that you have to sleep in a particular position for the pillow to work. Yes, you can sleep on your back or either side. However, if you sleep on your right side, you have to sleep on the right side of the pillow (not the center or the left). It is not a big deal, but is a minor inconvenience.
