A 2011 study published in the International Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics found that 53 percent of mobile phone users suffer numbness or neck aches. Although our heads weigh between 10lb and 12lb, as we angle them down to look at our phones, the effective weight on our necks increases - at a 15-degree angle it is about 27lb rising to 60lb at 60 degrees, placing huge strains on the neck bones and muscles, resulting in this painful condition known as "text neck" The Neck Pain Relief Massager helps alleviate text neck and the discomfort that goes with it. A mains adaptor and a 12v car adapter are included, so you can use your Neck Pain Relief Massager anywhere, even on the go! The Neck Pain Relief Massager takes a 3-pronged approach to alleviating discomfort and pain.
- Firstly, it has a proper Shiatsu type massage, not just a vibration or a thumper. The massager loosens tight muscles, providing relief within minutes.
- Secondly, the attached straps allow you to increase the strength of the massage by increasing downforce with your hands. This provides relief to muscles that are extremely tight, or won't release with a standard kneading massage.
- Thirdly, the Text Neck Pain Relief Massager has an optional heat function. Use it where necessary to warm muscles up as you release them.
Comfortable & Versatile.
The massager area has two different materials. One is a soft leatherette, comfortable and cushioned against the back of the head. The second is a vented, soft comfort fibre that reduces friction on the skin and allows any moisture or sweat to be released, preventing discomfort to the skin at the back of the neck.
