Summary: 4 Stars
I have bulging discs in my neck and my neurosurgeon had prescribed a water bag type of traction device a few years ago to stretch my neck when I was having numbness in my hands, but it was always a pain in the neck (pun intended) to find someplace to store a full water bag or to have to refill the bag every time I wanted to use it. So, when my neck discomfort and hand numbness returned, I decided to try the NeckPro.
The first issue was the same one another reviewer mentioned: the harness tends to smash your head. Luckily, I had the spacer bar from my water bag device, which has notches for the harness rings at various distances from the center, so I removed the harness from the hook and put the bar in its place. The harness rings fit perfectly in the notches. Problem solved. I agree with the other reviewer that a spacer bar should have been included in the package.
The second issue was that the straps on the harness are too short. I have an 18" neck and the harness was literally choking me when I got the straps to where they'd stay put. I ended up having to extend the straps with some industrial strength Velcro. I don't know why they made the straps so short.
Other than those two issues, I didn't notice any difference in comfort level between the two devices: they both hurt my jaw the same amount. It's something I had to get used to previously and I'm sure I'll get used to it again.
I really like the easily adjustable force on the NeckPro; it sure beats having to adjust the water level in a bag. It also makes positioning the harness on my head much easier because I can take up the slack to get everything situated and then crank up the force, all without leaving my chair.
Product Review: Worth every penny

The device is well built. It allows for a controlled pull at an excellent price. To avoid extreme pressure on the jaws, I recommend using a mouth protector, like those used to avoid biting teeth while sleeping. Another point to keep in mind is the tightness of the nut to avoid getting while loose under pressure. Otherwise, it is an excellent product.Product Review: best device ever

I kept wanting to stretch my neck for relief from arthritis. Went to a physio who was great, but this device does the same thing as the physio. And it is such a relief! Did not want a device that required a bag of water as a weight(?!) Well engineered and well built. Highly recommended!Product Review: cervical neck traction

I am happy with the cervical neck traction device. It is easy to use,and does help my neck/shoulder pain. If you put too much traction on, it does make your neck muscles sore- which defeats the purpose. So start slow.
