This is the best back “gadget” I’ve ever tried. It fully relaxes the tight muscles between my shoulder blades and I use it every evening after getting sore from a long day typing at work

5 Stars - Compact, Effective, and Easy to Use!After a couple of weeks of using the HALO Spine Stretcher, I can say it makes a difference! Just a few minutes on it each day helps ease the tension in my back. It’s like getting a deep-tissue massage. The acupressure points dig into those tight spots, and I feel so relaxed afterward. I love how compact and effective the Halo Spine Stretcher is! It doesn't take up much space but delivers incredible back relief.

I get deep knots under my shoulder blades that create tension from my skull to my tailbone. A few minutes of stretching with this product and I feel the tension release through my entire back. I can gently rock while stretching and feel those deep knots releasing. Nothing I’ve used does this so effectively. Finally the relief I need!

I waited to write this review as I really wanted to use the product and understand it's effectiveness. Well, not only am I stretching but I am back to working out. This was the relief I needed. Well done.

I've been trying this spine stretcher for a few days now and it's been fantastic. I'm sitting constantly and have lower back tension/pain. I felt immediate relief after laying on this for just 5 minutes. My spine felt more open just like I came back from the chiropractor. This is a great, quick and easy way to relieve some tension in my spine and neck from the convenience of my home. I would definitely recommend this product to anybody.

As soon as you lay down on the spine stretcher you can feel it working right away, I lie on mine daily. It keeps my back really loose for golf as well as relieving the tension from working grounds crew all day. It made a great addition to the other halo products that I already have!

The Spine Stretcher definitely gave my back some well needed relief!

My back tends to tighten up after a long run. The HALO back stretcher hits all the right spots and helps me stretch all the right places. This is my home chiropractor. Love it.

I saw this for the first time when Amazon was having a sale. I wish I had bought it at the sale price because this is pretty expensive. I love the length of this device; it is longer than any of my foam rollers. I can't believe there were no suggested exercises or stretches or some kind of a link to show you various ways of using this device. That is why I only gave it 3 stars. That really stinks! Quality seems good, though.

This is a very unique therapeutic device from others I've used in the past, but I've come to really enjoy the relief it offers. It's constructed with a series of foam balls that align nicely along my spine. The balls move around enough to sort of land where they're needed. While it doesn't seem like it would provide much by the way of stretching, however, it's *just* the right amount of decompression for my spine. I also find that I can change position just enough to work the balls into trigger points and provide some release. Overall, I've really come to enjoy using this daily to provide consistent relief from back pain.

This may not replace more expensive methods or a visit to a masseuse/chiropractor but it certainly does feel good! It feels like several lacrosse balls stitched together. I'm not sure it's quite a one-size-fits-all deal but it does fill a difficult to reach need for massaging the muscles lining the spine and decompressing.

Very simple to use with good results if your back is sore and needs some stretching. The item is pretty long and will most likely exceed your entire back. It does feel good when you lay your neck on it as well to help alleviate cramps and stiffness. Good product!

This device seems pretty simple, but I can also see how it might provide some relief for some people. It is basically just individual massage balls that are woven into this pattern. I am pretty flexible, and tend to just use a massage gun on my own back when I have back issues, so I'm not sure if I'm the target demographic for this. So I only found it to be mildly useful, but others might get more benefit from it. I suspect people that have less flexibility/mobility, or maybe chronic disc issues? In that though it might be wise to consult a doctor first.

Great placement of balls to cradle your spine

This product has been a great addition to my home - I am a yogi, a competitive dancer, and an office worker. The hours in a chair of office work leaves me with a pelvic tilt that wreaks havoc when I dance, that I use yoga to correct. This spine stretcher has been a god send with helping with the pelvic tilt that causes a lot of lower back pain, and has been more effective in ways than yoga on its own. This product has the appearance and feel of a lot of care and research put into it - it is thoughtfully packaged and well-branded, and the claims seem reputable. This is a brand selling on Amazon - not an Amazon brand. The price is a little steep, but I think the product, especially considering the benefits on long term spinal health, are worth it in the long run.
