Roughly 70% of Americans report having had neck pain at some point in their lives.

Cervigard™ Forward Head Posture Neck Collar. It is designed to properly support and correct the alignment of the head and neck. Daily use of this neck collar can gradually restore normal cervical lordosis by correcting head and neck posture in patients who experience pain and abnormal lordosis, which may result from “text neck” and other causes of forward head posture pain.

The device may be worn as little as 20 minutes a day or for several hours, depending on the patient’s needs. The process of correcting the deformity with this brace has been likened to straightening teeth with dental braces. This eventually retrains the muscles and corrects abnormal soft tissue tightness that has developed over time.

NESS – Nevo Sports and Spine now offers fitting and dispensing of the one-of-a-kind Cervigard neck collar. After initial fitting, the collar is worn for 20 minutes a day for up to 8 weeks with periodic adjustments by the doctor as your neck realigns to a healthy position. In some cases, physical therapy may be recommended as an adjunct to the Cervigard program.

The Cervigard collar (PDAC Code L0180) may be covered by your insurance provider with DME coverage. Appointments for physician adjustments may also be covered. Please call our office at (818) 817-6377 x 1 so we can verify your coverage for you.
