Neck King invites guests to reconnect with posture, presence and sustainable living
– Mirko Malec, founder, Wooden Toolz
Chronic forward head posture and neck tension – often due to excessive screen use – contributes to muscular imbalances, headaches and overall stress. In addition, nearly half of all adults regularly report neck pain.

That's why German firm Wooden Toolz has collaborated with medical professionals and physiotherapists to create Neck King: a neck stretcher with a 26˚ angle to help decompress the cervical spine, improve circulation and aid relaxation.

Made from a choice of sustainably-sourced wood, such as maple or abachi, in a minimalist design, Neck King is specifically intended for use in saunas.

However, founder Mirko Malec, says it's also an "excellent tool for meditation", that it could be used before treatments to enhance efficacy or bridge the gaps between services, or could simply be placed in cool-down areas or relaxation spaces for guests to discover.

"True luxury lies in nature's simplicity," Malec says. "Neck King invites guests to reconnect with posture, presence and sustainable living."

The solution to the modern neck problem Excessive screen time, lack of exercise, or a lack of recovery after exertion lead to poor posture of the cervical spine – often with painful consequences. According to the BURDEN 2020 study by the Robert Koch Institute, around 48% of adults regularly report neck pain. Common causes include myofascial tension, muscular imbalances, or even degenerative changes. This is precisely where the NeckKingz comes in. Its anatomically sound design returns the cervical spine to its physiological curvature. The biomechanically optimized angle of 26° helps to sustainably reduce asymmetrical strain.
