Neck cloud

Has anyone ever tried one of these? I keep seeing ads for them on facebook and have just bought one. I am hoping it will get rid of the hump at the top of my back, relieve some tension and help with TMJ? Worried that I've been reeled in by some scam or something!

It's like this

Another hopeful bump (a bit like the scary one in the ads...)

@TheUntiedShoelace are you thinking about getting one yourself?

Bumping for you as well, because I have been thinking about buying something similar that keeps appearing in ads. I have a very pronounced neck hump from years of computer use and I'd love to get rid of it. Please report back and tell us what you think!

@TheUntiedShoelace are you thinking about getting one yourself?

yes, I am, because I think I'm developing a laptop hump - but I keep going round in circles as there's the 'official' one for £30 or so, then the usual horde of cheap knock offs on Amazon, all with accompanying fakey reviews. I'm wary of messing around with my spine! Would be really interested to know how you get on. (From someone who bought an Aldi Shakti mat, reeled in by the Facebook ads, and used it twice.)

I bought the 'official' one! I am also a bit worried - but I will report back after I have given it some time.

@MoggyMittens23 how did you get on with the neck cloud? Would you recommend one?

I have a knockoff version that I've had for years and it doesn't work when I can be bothered to use it. Its just I don't have time to lie on the floor for 15 minutes a day.

@MoggyMittens23 I just came on here to start exactly the same thread, please can you let me know if it is it working for you? Thank you

I can’t speak for that but years ago I bought something similar called a back magic which is concave and used for the lower back and it was brilliant.

Hello,
I suffer with headaches, pain and terrible posture so I was looking at buying one of these too. Was trying to decide between the ‘official’ one and a cheaper version on Amazon, but the bad reviews on Amazon made me nervous. Would love to know how people who already have one have got on with them? Many thanks!

rayssunshineeverywhere · 03/02/2023 01:01

Also bumping, as I would love to know too.
