What was shipped to me looks a bit different than the picture shown in the ad. It has the 3 layer balloon inside of an outer covering with only 1 velcro strap in the front. Also, it only has 1 air tube going into it. It is fine, and seems to work well. The outer covering is a soft, sort of velour material and the velcro strap is nice and sturdy. I was concerned that these apparatuses might feel like they were cutting off my jugular vein, but when the velcro strap is properly adjusted the balloon pushes up under the jawbone and doesn't squeeze inward on the neck. I've had it on for about 2 hours now and it feels like it is giving my neck a nice stretch. I'm very satisfied with the initial quality of the device.

This is by far the best money I have spent in years to relieve my neck pain.
Great for after a stressful day at work. I Simply wear this for 3-5 minutes
When I get home from work to alleviate stiffness in my neck & shoulders.

The Device works great, but in my case maybe I should not have used it.
I felt it was working good, but after a week of use my neck started to get worse.
I used it for a couple more days then HAD to stop as my neck was hurting more that it ever had.
I have been almost afraid to retry it for fear the Pain will return as with the first use.
So I am NOT CERTAIN I can blame it on the device.
So use it Carefully and I suggest start slow and stop soon if discomfort increases.

Just got it and was a bit nervous that it would be junky and have leaks but I am very happy to say that is seems well built and I am using it as I write (right now). This is a powerful device that really stretches the neck - much better then the over the door device I had to send back. Highly recommend.

Having suffered neck problems since being hit by a taxi neary two years ago, I underwent regular physical therapy but still found my neck tightening up and limiting motion, sometimes causing pain. My physical therapist recommended this traction device and in fact sold it for $80. They were out of stock, so I went to trusty Amazon and found it for $23!!. It is worth $80 but I enjoyed the savings! More importantly, using it once or twice a day -- which requires pumping it up as far as is comfortable -- works amazingly to keep my neck loose and pain-free. I recommend it without reservation (except of course checking with your doctor to see if it is the right treatment for you).

I have a cracked disc in my neck that tends to herniate. I bought this product even though others have it cheaper based on reviews. I've used it two weeks, once a day for 10-15 minutes and it has helped me manage the pain of the herniation. It doesn't smell, it hasn't leaked etc. I usually go through 2-3 months of pain before it gets better, and this has made a huge difference. While it's not a miracle cure, it and an ice pack after has kept me moving. I'm sure if I used it 2-3 times a day it would do better but I don't want to look like a goober at work. After each use I repackage it carefully in hopes of making it last awhile. I love it!

The Neck Traction worked very well however it smelt like piss. Sprayed it with febreze for a couple days it didn't help... Maybe I just got one that was pissed on O.o

I find this product to be pain relieving for my neck. I have had 2 herniated discs diagnosed and maybe another one soon. I put the neck traction on for 10-15 minutes and it feels a lot better for a while. Relief is spelled INSTAPARK CERVICAL NECK TRACTION! :)

This worked great ~ once! The bulb kept falling off the tubing, which I could have lived with, but then one of the bladders sprung a leak. Also, it did not come with a lot of instructions and acutally said put it on with the velcro in back and that is not the way it should go on. I took it to my PT who said the theory was sound. Sure beats other methods of home traction. Now I just have to find one that works!

My item when pulled it out of the box stunk to high heaven. It was filthy..smelled of bad BO. Would not recommend this seller. Disgusting..going to file a complaint with Amazon.
