Medi Neck 3-In-1 Traction Device

When I kept it on warmth mode, it might have stung a bit—maybe it got a bit too hot—but it's so comfortable that I just dozed off. It even helps with my posture. I wish I could use it on other sore areas too (though sadly, I can’t). Since you’re supposed to use it twice a day, I do it morning and night. Seriously, it feels amazing.

I underestimated the impact this device could have due to its light weight, but I’ve been struggling with chronic shoulder and neck tension for years. I’ve tried numerous EMS devices and heating pads that hook onto the neck, but most haven’t been very effective, and I often end up putting them away. This one, however, is different: it’s designed to lie down and rest your head on, which allows you to relax your muscles completely—and that alone makes a big difference.
The heat and EMS functions feel soothing, but what really surprised me was the traction feature. It genuinely pulls in a way that reminds me of a professional massage. It’s a movement that’s hard to replicate while standing, so I think this could be highly effective.
I tried it on both a soft bed and on the floor. On the bed, my body sank in too much, which made it difficult to get the right position. A firm surface like the floor, with a yoga mat or similar padding, seems ideal for stability. Also, I noticed a big difference in the EMS intensity before and after a bath—it felt much stronger after bathing, which seemed to increase its effectiveness. Overall, I feel incredibly refreshed and really like it.

The product is great and I feel my neck is much more comfortable.

This is probably the most interesting cervical traction unit I've ever used and I've used quite a few styles. The TENS is a great touch, very relaxing. Lots of versatility in the settings and functions. Easy to set up, slightly difficult to store compared to other options, but that's the worst of it, so I'd say it's a pretty great option.

I ordered this because I spend a lot of time on the computer and also end up sleeping in poor positions for my neck, despite my best efforts. I have neck issues and also problems with my back between my shoulder blades. This device is a bit unusual compared to other things I have tried, but is pretty effective for my neck issue.The device seems to be nicely made, with quality manufacturing (fit and finish were very nice and the plastic material is sturdy) and everything worked as it should out of the box. It seems sturdy and substantial. The remote cable seems like it is made for commercial use - it is thick and solid and not some thin little wire. It won't be easy to pinch or kink. The box is ideal for gift-giving and is handy for storage (but is large) - the packaging is high-quality.For me, I found the heating and EMS functions suited me the best, although the traction function was helpful as well. I started on low and gradually ramped up the intensity over several sessions, as noted in the instructions. The remote was easy for me to use, with buttons I could readily push and an easy-to-read backlit dial.The only thing that is a little difficult for me is actually using the device, as it requires a firmer support like a carpeted floor, massage table, or yoga mat on a hard floor for the traction inflator to work against, which isn't the most comfortable for me to lie on. I ended up putting it on my carpeted bedroom floor with a plastic cutting board under it for that support, and it worked okay. It's a bit awkward to store, as the box is large, and if not stored in the box, the shape and size of it doesn't easily fit in my linen closet or armoire, but I just put it on top of the towels and it does okay. The benefit to my neck is worth the effort to deal with the device.For my use, it was most helpful for my neck and not so much for down through my shoulders. It is reasonably comfortable for me to use and cradles my head nicely. The levels of heat and EMS vary from very light to almost more than I can stand, so the range would likely work for anyone. The traction works smoothly and well and isn't too loud, but it is right under your head, so it seems a bit amplified. After several sessions on medium intensity using heat and EMS, my neck felt much better. I think the traction will take me a bit more to get used to, but seems helpful as well.Overall, I am glad I ordered it, but I am not sure I see $250 value out of it.
