Questions & Answers

Comparing this to a craniocradle, what do you think?

Compared to a traditional cradle, the Craniocradle is much gentler. In fact, you can't spend as much time in the Occipivot, so it almost feels like a strengthening tool. To work up to longer times, you need to work up to a certain point. Although it's still a great tool, I think the Cradle has more of a feel of Myofascial Release to it.

Can you please tell me the type of material it is?

Despite its weight, it's a very light item. In the same way as polyurethane. The material is made with rubber outside and hard foam inside, making it very durable. No matter how you bend it, or how you cut it, it can't be altered.

What is the country of origin of this product?

The product is manufactured by Magister Corporation in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

By using this device routinely, did you keep the natural curve of your cervical spine?

My experience with it has been positive, but it has just been a few weeks. I can tell a big difference when I do not use the shaper for over 2 days (the bone moves out of place and puts pressure on my slowly. Then, next week, you can add more time if you want. If you use it faster, you won't see benefits, and you'll be sore and discouraged. As long as there is no loss of firmness, you can rock your head and get rid of Placing your arm right up to your shoulder will be the best method for best comfort and use. Often, it is helpful to do it after a gentle stretch

5/5

As far back as I can remember, I have had TMJ disorder. In a moment of sheer desperation, I searched Amazon for "TMJ" and came up with this result. It was instinctive for me to buy it as soon as I saw it. In the past three years, I've gone through multiple dental procedures, from shaved down teeth to braces as an adult, to massage therapists and chiropractors. In the last two years, I have even received Botox injections in my jaw flexors and temple muscles. I used this for 30 seconds on my hardwood floors the first time I used it. I felt like I had bruises on the back of my head for at least three days after I tried to balance on it. Despite the way it kept slipping around, when I actually tried to balance on it, it hurt! There must have been something wrong with what I was doing. Several weeks later, I picked it up again and began playing again.

I threw it in the corner and considered it money lost. As with the last time, I used it on my very comfortable The only problem was that I could only lie on it for 30 seconds before it hurt. Once again, I convinced myself I was doing something wrong, but this time, it felt less bruised! In spite of my resistance, I used it for a few minutes the next day. The original two days were painful, but not as much as the third! This is what I did every day, adding a few minutes each time. The mere act of resting my head on the pillow at the end of two weeks caused my head, neck, shoulders, and FORTUNATELY AND, JAW (! It has taken thousands of dollars to get braces, Botox injections, and There is no such thing as a dumb question. The problem is that I keep looking like I'm slouching, regardless of how straight my spine is, and that puts a tremendous amount of stress on the muscles in my neck and shoulders. I didn't get rid of my TMJ disorder after using this occupivot, but it made it much easier to cope with. I've told everyone I know who sits at a computer all day to get one after I got my computer. The reason why I am here purchasing another is because I lend mine out so much that I need one that At least two other people who have lent it have purchased more than one of them for friends. Every single person I have loaned it to has gone on to buy their own. To be honest, I should have a distribution company for these. Despite continuing to grind my teeth, my TMJD isn't cured (I'm still a terrible teeth grinder), but I got to put off getting more Botox injections for another 6 months. It was painful and awkward, and I wanted to make sure I wasn't hurting myself, yet I couldn't find any clear pictures of people in the field using it. I am attaching a picture as I was really confused at first if I was using it correctly. Thanks for reading, hopefully this was helpful! I am on my third or fourth day of using it in the photo. I'm not having any difficulties with my neck muscles. They're trying to relax but they're having a hard time! In fact, I have the device positioned to appear as if it had fingers that curled like rainbows upside down if I looked at it. Please forgive me if the picture isn't very clear, but it works best on me if those fingers hit on top of the head. When I am able to relax my neck, I move my chin slowly upward until the fingers are under After I got the hang of it (and my muscles acclimatized to the pain of first using it, I was able to do Since I go directly to that spot), I don't have to enter any other places. I have also found that meditation and focus on calming my muscles enhance my ability to cope with my stress. During the first couple of weeks I tried staying on my phone or watching television, but I found that focusing all of my energy on relaxing helped many more. It's a three!.

Now you don't have to worry about headaches keeping you up at night! During the last several months, I have been experiencing headaches that start at the base of my skull and travel around my head like a band
5/5

My chiropractor explained that it was caused by a misalignment in my occipito-temporal joint. There is an Atlanta Junction. The muscles became so tight that after the chiropractor adjusted me, the bones misaligned within a day. One night when a headache was preventing my sleep, I searched Amazon for a solution to save myself the financial strain of more frequent chiropractic appointments and massage therapies. As an occipivot novice, I am delighted i had the opportunity to try it out. This is exactly the solution I was searching Towards the end of a few minutes with my head cradled in this contraption, I feel my occipital ridge relax and release My headaches and discomfort have been eliminated whenever I feel any tightness behind my ears or at the base of my skull. I use this when any tightness appears and my problems are solved. After just over a month of using this product, I did not need the occipito-dental adjustment at my most recent monthly chiropractic appointment A correction has been made to Atlanta. It has been months since I have seen my family! It takes me awhile to get used to the occipital pivot because it doesn't perfectly center my head so that pressure is applied to my entire occiptal ridge before I feel it. Turning my head a bit to the right and left, as well as holding my head at an angle, is one way to gradually release some areas. Even if it takes just a few minutes longer, it will be worth it in the end. In addition to TMJ, I also suffer from headaches and would recommend this purchase to people suffering from TMJ. (My headaches were caused by clenching my jaw and jutting out my chin. In addition to being aware of not doing that action, being aware of NOT doing it has also been helpful. There are no words to describe how incredible this thing is. You will no longer suffer from chronic headaches or neck pain that keeps you up at night. A brief update The product has been on the market for 5 months and I am still impressed with its the past five months, I had not needed any occipito-conceptional scans As a result of the adjustment I received at my chiropractor, I have not suffered severe headaches or lost any sleep. The purchase of this mattress has been an excellent investment into my comfort and overall happiness.

I found it to be very helpful
5/5

Thanks to Occipivot, I found what I was looking for! My neck and back pain seemed to be getting worse after using really bad pillows (still looking for the holy grail for side sleepers) that were more uncomfortable than anything I have ever experienced. All of the pain and tension in the body has been relieved following three days of Occipivot treatment. The reason why I chose this particular product was because the mold resembles a person holding their fingers in the position of The following update has been posted on The present piece has been in my possession for close to 2 years and is still in new When I experience discomfort, I use my Occipivot. I've finally found a pillow that minimizes my neck issues.
