The problem

Neck pain is a growing problem. And the way we live is the reason.

Over 20 million suffering, like you

Over 20.2 million adults in the UK are suffering with neck, shoulder and upper back pain right now. Most have no idea what's actually causing it.

The cost of modern life

British adults now spend an average of 7 hours and 27 minutes every day in front of screens. Phones, laptops, tablets. All pulling the body into a slumped position, day after day, without you even realising.

British adults now spend over 7 hours a day in front of screens. Add driving, desk work, or just the habits of daily life, and you've got a spine that's constantly being pulled out of its balanced position, without you even noticing.

You already know the feeling. You wake up with a stiff neck. Again. You roll your shoulders, slowly move your head from side to side trying to loosen it up, maybe feel something click or shift, and get on with your day.

It builds up in ways you'd never think to connect. The way you sit. Lifting the kids. Hours in the car. Years of small habits, loading up the same joints, day after day.

As the day goes on it may loosen up a bit (or just get worse after hours at the screen). The niggle is there but it's manageable. "I can live with it," you tell yourself.

And that's exactly what most people do. They live with it. For years.

Sound familiar? Maybe you've tried painkillers. Maybe you've booked a massage. It eases off for a bit and then it's back. So eventually you stop trying to fix it and just accept it as part of life.

It isn't.

Neck pain, in the majority of cases, doesn't start in the neck. It starts further down your spine, in the way your body has slowly been pulled forward by years of daily habits. Fix that, and the neck pain goes with it.

The real reason your neck pain keeps coming back.

Every painkiller, every massage, every heat patch. They all have one thing in common. They try to treat where the pain is, the symptoms, not what's causing it.

Most neck pain doesn't start in the neck. It starts further down your spine, in the way your body has slowly been pulled out of its natural balanced position. The neck is where you feel it. But it's rarely where it begins.

Until you address that, the pain will keep coming back. Time after time.

And that's why so many people end up thinking they just have to live with it. Not because there's no solution. Because they've never been pointed at the right one.

Neck pain is not normal.

It's become so common that most people assume it's just part of life. But common and normal are not the same thing.

Ignoring neck pain is like seeing the warning light come on in your car and just carrying on driving. It'll be fine for a while. Maybe weeks or months… Until it's not.

Your body is trying to tell you something. The question is whether you listen.

Whether yours is a constant nagging ache or a pain that's starting to seriously affect your life, the earlier you address it the better.

Hoping it will get better, or waiting until it gets worse, is not a strategy.

The solution

11 minutes a day.

In just 11 minutes a day, the OptiNeck Balance Wedge® helps your mid and upper spine return to its balanced position and relieves the stress you've unknowingly been putting it under.

When you're upright, gravity is closing you up (be that standing or sitting). When you're on the Balance Wedge, gravity is opening you back out. It's not just about lying down.

The shape of the Wedge is what does the work, specifically designed to target the part of your spine that needs it most.

No complicated routine. No effort.

Just gravity working for you rather than against you.

STEP
1

Finally, some relief

The Wedge works directly on the mid and upper sections of your spine, the part that's been forced out of its balanced position for years (through no fault of your own), and starts to free up that feeling of stiffness and nagging discomfort from the very first session.

STEP
2

Relax and Reset

For the first time in years, the overloaded muscles and joints responsible for your pain, achieve the relief and reset they need, allowing your body to relax and function as nature intended.

Life without the niggle

11 minutes a day is all it takes. And you don't even have to think of it as exercise. Lie on it while you're watching TV, listening to music or a podcast. Simply lying on it gets straight to work.  However, if you want the maximum benefit from your Balance Wedge, following the very simple exercises (included with your purchase) will accelerate your results exponentially.

Why nothing has worked

Tried the foam roller. Tried the posture straps and gadgets. Tried the massage gun. Still got neck pain? Here's why...

Massage guns, foam rollers, heat patches. All perfectly good at what they do. Which is giving you short term relief from a problem that's been building for years. And the reason you're lying awake at 2am wondering why your neck won't let you sleep.

Think of it like a blister. A plaster helps in the moment. But if you don't change the shoes causing it, you'll be reaching for plasters forever.
What you've been reaching for
The OptiNeck Balance Wedge®

Painkillers

They work. For a while. But it's not long before you're reaching for them again. And again.

Heat patches

Feels good. That clicking and releasing tells you something's happening. But notice how quickly you're back to square one.

Massage gun

Like a cuddle from your mum when you're heartbroken. Comforting in the moment. But the problem's still there when it's over.

Foam roller

You think you should use it but it can be too painful and is difficult to use. It only helps to point and then you stop doing it. Lots of effort, little reward, no lasting change.

The OptiNeck Balance Wedge®

It works on the thing that makes you reach for everything else. So over time you don't have to. Your massage gun, your heat patches, your foam roller. They can still be there, but you probably won’t need them.

Michael oreilly
Where it came from

He didn't want to keep seeing people suffer needlessly.

After treating thousands of patients, Chartered Physio Michael O'Reilly kept seeing the same pattern. The ones who got lasting results were the ones who did something consistently between sessions.

The problem was that traditional exercises just weren't effective, are easy to forget, take time to remember, and honestly, after a long day, are just another thing on the list you don't get round to.

He needed something so simple that there was so simple and rewarding that you look forward to doing it. No complicated routine to remember. No effort required. Just 11 minutes, lying down, doing whatever you were doing anyway.

The alternative didn't exist. So he created it.

Got questions?

We've probably got the answer.

I've tried similar things before and they haven't worked. Why would this be different? +
The Balance Wedge is unique. It targets where the problem actually starts - the mobility and bio-mechanical balance of the trunk (mid and upper spine). By correcting and resetting the fundamental bio-mechanical drivers it gets to the root of the problem. It is easy to use and, in most cases, you feel a difference after the first session. This leaves you looking forward to your next Wedge session!
How will I know what to do with it? +
Included with your Balance Wedge are 2 links: 1. The Foundational Exercise Series videos 2. An option to sign up to the Posture Programme which will help you get the most out of your Balance Wedge and help you move better for longer.
How is this different from a foam roller? +
It was in trying to solve the problems that are inherent to foam rollers that the idea for the Balance Wedge was formed. Where foam rollers are unstable, often painful and difficult to use, the Balance Wedge provides stability were you need it and mobility where you want it. The wedge shape and support for the head provide invaluable (and essential) mobilisation of the thoracic spine (mid back) while taking the strain off the neck and head. The ease of use and immediately tangible benefits of using the Balance Wedge means that users look forward to their "Wedge-time". This helps users form the habit of regular bio-mechanical resetting, as essential component of balanced and sustainable movement and keeping symptoms at bay. The Balance Wedge is to the foam roller what the modern EV is to the 1920's car.
How long before I start to feel a difference? +
Most users feel a difference in the first week. Significant change usually arrives between weeks 3 and 6 of regular (3-5 times a week) use. Remember, the way we live (screens, phones etc) is a big part of the problem. Therefore, getting into the habit of regular Wedge-time is invaluable in helping us move better for longer.
How often and how long should I use it? +
11-15 minutes a day, 3-5 times a week, is the sweet spot. The answer to this is also down to how much time you spend sitting and using screens. The more screen time, the more Wedge time. A good rule of thumb is, for every hour you are at the desk (or using a screen), do 2 min on the Wedge. So, for an 8 hour work day, 16min on the Wedge at some point in the day. While the exercises (included with your purchase) will help you get more benefits, a lot of the time you don't need to do anything but lie on it. Gravity and simply breathing will do most of the work for you.
How will I know it's working? +
You'll feel it. Less stiffness, more range of movement, fewer niggles through the day. Many users report they only realised how much pain they'd been carrying once it was gone. Most users report feeling taller, lighter and more upright within a few sessions.
I'm not very flexible and don't really exercise. Can I still use it? +
Yes. The Wedge requires no flexibility or fitness — you simply lie on it. The shape does the work. Start with 5 minutes a day and build from there. The Balance Wedge will help you regain a lot of the flexibility you have lost.
I've had surgery or a serious injury. Is it safe for me to use? +
If you have had recent surgery, a series injury or are in severe pain we suggest that you check with your GP, Consultant / Specialist, Chartered Physiotherapist or relevant treating clinician before using the Balance Wedge. The Balance Wedge is used in physiotherapy clinics across the UK, so your physio should know about it. There is a list of precautions for the use of the Balance Wedge and the Foundational Exercise Series in the checkout process. Please ensure that you have read and heeded these before completing your order.
My pain is really severe. Will this be enough? +
For severe pain we recommend using the Wedge alongside a Chartered Physiotherapist, Osteopath or other relevant clinician. While clinical experience and user feedback shows that many patients with severe pain and other symptoms have experienced real and lasting change as a result of using the Balance Wedge, we will always advise caution and, where appropriate, the face-to-face input / treatment of an appropriately trained medical professional. There is a list of Precautions and Contra-indications in the check out process. Please ensure that you have read and heeded these before completing your order. We cannot take responsibility of the inappropriate use of the Balance Wedge.
My pain isn't that bad. Is it still worth it? +
Yes - the earlier you address it, the easier it is to fix. Niggles tend to become problems, not the other way around. The Balance Wedge is not only about treating the cause of pain and stiffness today, it is about helping you move better for longer!
Will I need to use it forever? +
You will probably want to! Once your spine has returned to balance most users get in to the habit of using it a few times a week as maintenance - the same way you brush your teeth daily without making it a project.
