Ten minutes on the Release can undo a whole day of desk-hunched neck. It is a cervical traction arch: lie back and it cradles your neck into its natural C-curve, gently opening space between compressed vertebrae to take pressure off the nerves and let tight muscles let go.

It bends flat to slide under your neck, then springs back to its supportive curve, thanks to a spring-steel core wrapped in firm foam and soft-touch silicone. Use it on the floor, bed or a mat for 10 to 15 minutes a day.

28 x 18 cm, 400 g. Made for neck pain from desk work, tech neck, tension headaches, cervical disc compression and post-injury rehab.

Wipe outer silicone surface with damp cloth and mild soap. Do not machine wash or submerge in water—internal spring steel frame will rust. Air dry completely. Clean every 1-2 weeks. Store flat in cool, dry place. Avoid excessive bending or twisting—while device is flexible for positioning, repeated extreme bending can fatigue the spring steel core. If device loses its ability to return to curved shape, the internal frame may be damaged.

Flexible Core: Spring steel frame (medical-grade stainless steel) encased in high-density foam. Spring steel provides firm, consistent support while allowing device to flex during positioning. When bent to slide under neck, steel frame stores elastic energy; when released, it returns to ergonomic curved shape, creating gentle upward lift on skull base and downward support at C7. This dual-point support creates cervical traction (decompression of vertebrae). Foam encasement cushions the steel frame, preventing pressure points.

Cervical Traction Mechanism: The device's curved shape creates two support points: (1) base of skull (occiput) and (2) base of neck (C7 vertebra). When lying flat with device under neck, gravity pulls head backward while device lifts upward—this creates gentle traction that increases space between cervical vertebrae (C1-C7). Increased space decompresses nerve roots (reducing radiating pain), relieves pressure on intervertebral discs, and stretches tight neck muscles. Traction force is gentle (approximately 2-4kg)—enough to create therapeutic effect without causing injury.

Restoration of Cervical Curve: Modern lifestyles (desk work, phone use) cause forward head posture, which flattens or reverses the natural cervical lordosis (C-curve). Loss of cervical curve increases stress on vertebrae, discs, and muscles, causing chronic neck pain. The CalmEden Release™'s curved shape mirrors the natural lordosis—when used regularly (10-15 minutes daily), it gently encourages neck to return to proper alignment. Over weeks/months, this can help restore natural curve and reduce chronic pain.

Outer Layer: Soft-touch silicone (charcoal grey) provides comfortable, non-slip surface against skin and hair. Silicone is hypoallergenic, easy to clean, and doesn't absorb sweat or oils. White accent trim along edges adds visual definition and premium aesthetic.

Flat, Flexible Design: Unlike rigid foam neck stretchers (which are bulky and difficult to position), the CalmEden Release™'s flexible core allows you to bend the device, slide it under your neck while lying down, then release—it springs back to curved shape, positioning itself correctly. This eliminates the awkward process of lifting your head to place a rigid device. Flat profile (2cm thick) also makes it portable and easy to store.
