All right. The next product I want to talk to you guys about is going to be the Cervical Apex Orthosis. This is great for restoring the cervical lordotic curve in the neck. We all should have a nice backwards curve to the neck. What happens in life as we go through car accidents, whiplash or sports injuries is we maybe get rear-ended and we lose that curve. So now the neck is more of a straight curve or sometimes called a military neck. What we want to do is restore that curve back here. When we have that curve in place, it takes pressure off the individual discs, the muscles, the tendons, the ligaments and allows the body to function and move properly with its normal biomechanics. So this product is great because a lot of times we are always looking down at technology, at our laptops, at our computers, at our cell phones and when we do that, we’re looking down in flexion all day. So again all these muscles get stretched. All the ones in the front get compressed. This product is great because as you lay on it, you lay back over and it’s going to help restore that curve. So this product I recommend to use about five to ten minutes a day. You can do it in the morning, do it at night and this product is great because it has got three tiers to it, so you can break off the individual sections and I usually recommend patients start on the lowest tier first, so that’s going to be level one, the base, and again five minutes in the morning, five minutes at night before bed. After about two weeks if these progress, you can add the next level and then two weeks after that, you can go to level three and you’re going to get a nice stretch and again this is going to be great for headaches, migraine sufferers. If you get cervicogenic headaches, neck sprains and even some old bulges or herniations, it’s going to help open that cervical space back up.
