Vive Cervical Collar Neck Brace for Neck Pain and Support for Women & Men - Soft Foam Brace for Pain Relief - Comfortable Corrector Wrap for Posture, Sleeping, Radiculopathy, & Spine (Beige, 3 inch)

I purchased this brace over others because of the added height option available. I have a long neck, and anything shorter would have been a waste of money. It took a couple of wears before it broke in, but it is quite comfortable and very supportive. Today is the longest amount of time I have worn it at about 6 hours straight now, and it is still comfortable after doing all of the Christmas decoration take-down I've been busy with. Great value, quality and fit!

It's a neck brace. The thing is, if you need this, you're likely in a lot of pain and there's no real way to make you comfortable. So, taking into account the reality of this situation, I've had this brace for a while now. It is of very good quality. It is stiff, which is both uncomfortable, but necessarily uncomfortable. It needs to be stiff to stop my head from irritating my neck. So, It has helped to reduce the pain in my neck. So, due to the inherent discomfort of having to use this product gives it four stars I believe. If you have significant chronic neck pain, you're likely a little unhappy all the time. It's tough to deal with. The product itself is 5 stars. 1. Durable. I've now had it for years. 2. Stiff. Holds the head up effectively to reduce pressure on the neck. So, it's effective at reducing pain as well. It doesn't make the pain disappear. it helps significantly. 3. Shaped about as well as it could be considering it has to work for a wide range of people.

Had neck cervical surgery and after having to use a "hard" cervicle colar moved to this product. Fits very well and provides the support I need. Good valuer.

I'm in my early 40s and I have cervical spine issues that cause pain in one of my arms and numbness in my hands if tilt my head forward for very long. It's still manageable as long as I don't look down for extended periods of time. Considering how much most of us look down at our phones these days, it's easy to loose track of how long we have actually been looking down at them. Then all of the sudden I realize I have overdone it when I get the unpleasant but familiar tingle in my left arm and hand which is the precursor to numbness and pain. I had no idea that I had any kind of spinal issues until roughly seven years ago when I started having severe pain in my left arm and hand. Eventually my doctor ordered an MRI and that's when I learned that the pain in my arm was originating in my cervical spine due to nerve impingement. Long story short, one thing I needed to do to help relieve the pain and numbness was keep my neck straight as often as possible. That's when I bought this collar. I've used this collar countless times over the past seven years. I wear it a lot around the house. Especially when I'm sitting at my desk working and when looking at my phone for extended periods. I also wear it on long car rides when riding with colleagues to the airport or to meetings. It's great for sleeping in vehicles or planes even if you don't have neck problems. The collar is firm and holds my head up great. Even after using it for so long it doesn't seem to have lost any rigidity that I can tell. It's comfortable and easy to clean. I steam it and wipe it down occasionally just to keep it fresh. I'm buying another one of these just to have an extra. I have tried other brands and they do not support nearly as well as this collar does.

The brace is not comfortable to wear. It’s not comfortable at all. Its purpose is to support your neck muscles. The smiling personality in the picture is not required to wear the Cervical collar 4 medical reasons. Does this BRACE support conditions to alleviate neck pain, it lessens the situation which requires the brace. Healing will be slow and tiresome, the brace is a Tool, helping you recover, “A REAL PAIN IN THE NECK.” Delivery was painless though, arriving sooner than later. Good choice 4 me. Not too expensive also.

This is a very nice neck brace - support. I use it for stress and pain relief. This is a good thick brace and it took a couple nights to break it in but now it is really good. I purchased a black 4 inch size and it fits fine (I have a 17.5 inch neck.) I have slept in it and it provides good support and comfort throughout the night.

Great !!!!

this neck brace is in my opinion very firm not soft foam it looks well-made and probably would hold up it comes tightly packaged so it ends up with a fold set [bad wrinkle in the center] i returned it so do not know if the set would go away or not i gave it 4 stares because it might be ideal for someone that needs a very firm support i do not so i returned it thanks amazon

The collar is very stiff and uncomfortable. It’s almost like wearing a plastic immobilizer. Though its width is of the correct size, the sponge is so hard. You get a pain in the neck if you wear this for some time. The width was the only reason I went in for this, the others being much wider, but the pain you endure by wearing this is just not worth the buy. Would have returned it if it was returnable.

Great item but be sure that it fits because the customer service is extremely poor quality :(

I can't really give a good review for this neck brace because I think the problems I have with it are because I bought it too big?! Plus it is too high and keeps my neck at a painful angle. I have arthritis in my neck, and scoliosis and it was just too painful for those ailments. But, I do believe that may be because I bought the wrong size and the wrong type. Sorry I can't be more helpful!! :o(

This neck collare is perfect in every way. Although initially it felt a little tall and was rather hard and uncomfortable after wearing it on and off over a period of a month, it moulded and softened a little and is now very comfortable to wear when I need it. I have spondylosis in my spine and get flare ups from time to time. I used to have an NHS collar which I threw away about ten years ago as I hadn't had a flare up in the time. A bit silly really because I bought several collars recently from diferent sellar costing a lot more than this collar, which were a disaster. They were soft and spomgy giving no support at all. This one is more like the one I had from the NHS which was also uncomfortable to start with. I have had this collar and have worn it on and off for about two months now and can say I an blisfully happy with the way it feels when I werar it and it gives me the support I need. This is a brilliant product at a sensible price. I am thinking of buying another one as a back up. If you try this collare and give it time, I'm sure you will find it will soften slightly to give a more comfortable fit.

Helps with the pain relief like it to be a little bit more softer.
