How often have you got to your holiday destination (or friends and relatives for "Festivities") all vibed up to have a great time and woken the next morning to find that you have a pounding headache or neck that will only turn one way and or a grumbling low back from a sagging mattress? Most of us just grin and bear it swallowing stupid amounts of pain killers that various people pull from cupboards and hand bags.
Now you feel sedated but the actual pain and restriction is still there - "Does anyone know a good back cracker in the local area?", "It Christmas fool", come the retorts of friends and relatives caring soooo deeply for your, "Headache" or "Bad back".
People are pitiless in those situations, they usually think you are exaggerating the pain and trying to stop others having fun.
It will relieve you of the restriction of muscle spasm in 10 - 15 minutes and rid you of your headache in the same time or at least noticeably ease the discomfort (if the headache has been chemically induced).
No having to take Paracetamol by the packet or nuerofen "with food" etc.
The unique shape of Dr.
Nelson's S.
O.
S.
allows you to perform Traction and self massage to any area of your back and neck easily and conveniently - have several sessions in a day without side effects or the build up of pain killer tolerance, never mind that awful feeling of having too much Paracetamol in you causing you to feel almost as nauseas as the headache or neck pain symptoms.
The S.
O.
S.
is small and can pack into any little spare space in your luggage - it is the shape of a pair of cupped hands.
Based on the Original Osteopathic Technique of Sub Occipital Traction, it was quickly realized that the S.
O.
S.
could also be used to, "Get at" any of the tight or tender sites on your back or neck.
Place it behind your shoulders while sitting in a chair and massage away on any area of your back - use it as a posture support while traveling.
