Bonsai Occipital Release Tool | Chiropractic Alignment Pivot Device Provides Gentle At Home Cervical Neck Traction | Trigger Point Therapy For Headaches Migraine And Stress

I’m so glad I got this product. Having intense pain in my neck, shoulders and recently a few migraines, I was looking for a natural way to help alleviate them. I’ve been hearing about this product, so figured I could give it a try. The first day I used it, it was very uncomfortable. I aligned the elevated points with the base of my skull and allowed it drop. After a few minutes the pain went away. I’ve been using this daily now, and I’m really starting to see a difference. The best part is that I’m not having migraines like I use to. PROS: * Natural remedy to alleviate tensions in your neck, shoulders and forehead (migraines). * Compact and travel friendly. * Helped stop the need of medication to deal with the pain. * Also helps with spinal alignment (slumped posture). I’ve been having less back pain and can sit up straight without issues. * Helps relieve stress as well; very relaxing. * It has a removable interconnecting layer, so you’re children can use it too. * Saves you A LOT of money on medication, ER bills, unpaid sick days, etc. (Migraines can be pretty expensive) CONS: * Uncomfortable at first, but you have to start off slow and increase time the next day.

So you must be aware that this is more of a pressure point devise. Yes, it works to stretch the curvature of the neck but get ready for some muscle release. And oh my gosh...is this fantastic. I'm a retired dancer my neck is Kyphotic due to an old injury. The material has some give but not tons. This is how I used it: Make sure you start using this on the lowest level. If it hurts...stop...drink lots of water...and try again the next day. Your neck might need to adjust to this over the course of a few days. Shoot for no more than 3 days per week. But I can assure you that this little device is worth it's weight in gold. My sleep is better, and my jaws feel so relaxed. So glad I purchased this.

I have had severe occipital nerve pain for 12 years that affects me daily. This "tool" is very helpful to relax the muscles at the base of the skull which helps reduce the nerve pain. I love that it is not all hard plastic but there is a little give to the knobs. This helps prevent too much pressure on the nerves. I also love that the base is removable so it is close to the correct height for your body. If you use it at too high of a height (if you are small framed) your neck will be stretched out in the incorrect position and can cause more pain in the area. It is extremely important to use this only for a minute or two to begin with and slowly increase the time you use it. If you start using it 10+ minutes at a time it will be too much for the nerves and muscles and cause more pain. About the only way I can think of to improve this product is for it to be human fingers from a physical therapist. ; ) Both me and my physical therapist recommend this as long as you follow the instructions on how to use it.

I've head crushing headaches since maybe March of 2022. Face pain. Aches. Jaw pain. Cheek pain. Throbbing pain at the base of my skull and neck (that went as far back to January/Feb of 2022). Left arm aches. Shoulder aches. Primarily all on my left side. Ice pick headaches. The last few weeks the right side had started to act up as well. Eventually, I essentially demanded a script from my doctor for physical therapy as a massage therapist felt good, but was inadequate at fixing my issue. I bought this product as a last ditch effort. Since July I have seen my physical therapist over 25 times. I felt like progress was being made as I was, am, in good hands. But I wanted more. For the last two weeks I've heated my neck/head just about every night and used the Occipital Release Tool for 10-15 minutes a night. While my physical therapist is top notch, it seems this tool has helped significantly. I would call my case relatively severe. I had to quit two jobs due to my inability to be relied upon in pressure circumstances. For me, this took was huge and I recommend it to anyone who thinks they are without hope. I'm hoping I don't relapse. But, at this point and time, I continue to improve.

This device literally, after 5 minutes, managed to undo about 2 months of having really jammed up my occipital region with much discomfort. Had to move about slightly when positioning but once your own spot is found it will give some discomfort, just be patient and relax - it will work itself out. Pretty amazing I'd say, I have only used it once and it brought some pretty quick relief! Once up and about things will move into place, just take it slow for 1/2 hour to an hour and repeat if necessary the next day etc. Also used a doubled over piece of duct tape to anchor the device to the floor, the base is quite slippery. Thank you!
