UpGuard Neck Support System
UpGuard Neck Support System

Designed for those whose work requires them to look upward for extended periods of time, the UpGuard Neck Support System prevents over-extension of the neck to reduce neck pain, fatigue, and injury. Via its strap attachment, the support rests on the upper thorax and approaches the neck when head is extended and tilted backwards. This restricts further backward motion, which could otherwise cause pain or injury. The universal-fit, molded-design support is made of covered polyurethane foam; the straps are adjustable, with large clips for attaching to the waist.
