Why I bought the pillow: I have cervical spondylosis, which, when it flares, results in neck pain, neck muscle spasm, severe headaches – and when the disc impinges on the nerve, arm pain and numbness and tingling in my hand. I’ve bought endless different pillows over the years, and given away the majority after a few nights of trying and finding symptoms got worse. I bought the Arc4Life pillow after a month of neck pain and continuous headaches which were at their peak in the morning, started to improve by bedtime, then escalated again in bed. I was impressed by reviews from professionals and customers alike, but was initially put off by the price including postage and tax to the uk. Then my partner asked me what price I would pay for a chance to be headache free – that and wondering how much I’d spent on discarded pillows over the years… I needed no more persuasion. The pillow: …is weird, but wonderful for me. Within 2 to 3 days of using it, my headache had gone, and I’ve been headache-free for several weeks now. I can’t quite believe it, since none of the other neck pillows I’ve tried ever did as promised. The traction side is an odd thing to lie on at first, I can really feel the stretch and it was a little uncomfortable initially – and my neck muscles still sometimes ache in the morning... but it’s an entirely different type of ache. It’s not the deadening, sickening pain of constant muscle spasm, it’s the sort of ache you get when you’ve been exercising and doing gentle stretches – feels nice to me, because my neck has always felt like it’s abnormally contracted due to the muscle spasms. The advice leaflet with the pillow suggest you should start with only a short period lying on the traction side until you get used to it. That’s good advice, because it does take a bit of getting used to. In fact, several weeks in and I still don’t lie that way all night. The sides of the pillow are the perfect height and give a great level of support for lying on your side, and though I start off on the traction section, I usually wake up lying on my side. Most importantly I have remained headache and neck-pain free. I am very happy indeed.Read full review

This pillow is marketed towards people with spinal conditions, it is mainly for cervical traction but from my experience it is just as helpful with customers that have a spinal degenerative disease. I have severe spinal stenosis and usually wake 4/5 times a night with back spasms despite being on very strong pain relief. I have slept on this pillow for under a week but everytime I have slept on it I wasn't woken by painful spasms. I have found it to be such a relief. I expected that it would take weeks to get used to it, not so, I slept 8 hours without waking, my daughter woke me because she was worried that I hadn't been walking around the house trying to stretch the severe cramps that encompass both cervical and lumbar spine. If you have a spinal condition and are thinking of investing in this pillow, please heed my words it has made a significant difference in a short time. I have nerve damage in my legs and left arm and cannot work. This pillow was an investment I had to save for, it was a risk but thank goodness I picked the right pillow, it will go with me anytime I need to stay elsewhere and I'm already saving to buy a second one for the other side of the bed. Buy it try it you'll be happy you didRead full review

We have been using these pillows for a few years now. The latest MRI on my neck showed a variety of problems from bulging discs to bone spurs. It is quite amazing how using this pillow has improved my neck. My wife loves the pillow also and her neck is more like average.

Had the c5c6 thing in my neck and was suffering. Tried all sorts of pillows, but to no effect. This cervical linear traction neck pillow really helped. The numbness in my finger and pain in my hand/wrist area is eased greatly each morning I wake up. Thank you.
