TissueReset™ by Wellnessentials

The screen day
that stops hurting
starts here.

A complete recovery program for stubborn neck & shoulder tension: where to place it, how long to go, and how to build a routine that compounds week after week.

TissueReset device in use on neck and shoulder
Welcome

Welcome to your recovery.

Most tools for neck and shoulder tension work by pressing or vibrating against the muscle. TissueReset™ works in the opposite direction, using gentle suction that lifts the tissue upward and draws fresh circulation into the areas that have gone tight and under-circulated.

This guide shows you how to use it well: where to place it, how long to go, and how to build a routine that compounds week after week.

Follow the protocol. Stay consistent. Let the results build.

Quick Start

Your first session, in five steps.

Nervous first-timer? Start here. The deeper science can wait. This is what to do right now.

1
Charge it.
USB-C, until the indicator shows full.
2
Power on.
Start at the lowest suction and heat.
3
Find your tightest spot.
4
Let it work.
You'll feel a firm pull. That's correct. Sharp pain is not.
5
Remove it cleanly.
Press the release button and the cup lets go instantly.

Full controls, charging and cleaning are in your User Manual.

01Why your neck keeps hurting

Ease the cause,
not just the symptom.

When your head sits forward at a screen for hours, the muscles across your neck and shoulders never get to fully relax. Over time they stay tight and stiff, and that tightness presses on the small blood vessels running through them.

Squeezed vessels mean less fresh blood getting in. The area gets less circulation, and that tight, under-fed muscle keeps feeling sore and stiff long after you've left your desk.

Heat pads
warm the skin, but the heat doesn't reach the muscle underneath where the tension actually lives.
Stretching
lengthens the muscle for a moment, but can't reach the hardened bands beneath, so tension returns the moment you sit down.
Massage guns
push down into tissue that is already compressed, working against the problem, not into it.

Everything above works against tissue that's already being crushed.

TissueReset lifts.

Dynamic suction
Lifts the tissue upward, creating space and drawing fresh circulation into tired, tight muscle.
Infrared heat
Reaches past the skin to the muscle underneath, warming and relaxing the tissue at the source.
Red light
Signals the cells to recover, so the relief lasts beyond the session and builds over time.
02Where to place it

Your tension maps
the session.

Everybody's tension sits in a slightly different place, so instead of following fixed points, you'll find your spots. Press around the muscle with your fingers. The spot that feels tightest, ropiest, or most tender is your knot. Place the cup right there, and work the area around it. That's where your results come from.

Back view with green safe-placement zones and red off-limits zones on the neck, traps and upper back
GREEN: place here, on your knot and around it
  • the upper trap shelf, on either side of the neck
  • where the neck meets the shoulder
  • the muscle ridges beside the spine (never on it)
  • the upper back, between the shoulder blade and the spine
  • the base of the skull (gently)
RED: never place here
  • the front or sides of the throat
  • directly on the spine or any bony knob
  • the tip of the shoulder or collarbone
  • any broken, irritated, or marked skin

Green is yours to explore. Red is off-limits, always.

03Your session

Let relief set the clock.

Not a stopwatch. Stay on a spot while it's still releasing; move on when it eases.

Pick your 2 to 3 tightest spots for today.

A good starting session is around 15 minutes total, split across those spots.

Relief sets the pace. If a spot is still giving you relief, it's fine to stay longer.

To move on, lift the cup and reposition on the next tight spot. Place and hold, don't drag it across the skin.

Have more than one device?  Place them on two spots at once to cover more ground in the same time, and enhance your results over time. More devices working in tandem means faster, more complete sessions.

04How much is enough?

A strong pull is right.
Sharp pain is not.

Start low and build as your tissue adapts. Suction and heat/red-light are two separate controls, 12 levels each, raised independently. Most people tolerate more heat before they tolerate more suction.

Week 1
1–2
Your skin and tissue are adjusting.
Week 2
2–4
If a session feels easy, size up right then, don't wait for tomorrow.
Week 3 & beyond
4–12
The tissue is more receptive. Deeper suction, deeper release.

The rule: a strong pulling sensation is exactly right. Sharp pain is not. If it hurts, drop two levels and build back up gradually.

Read this before your first session

The marks are the work happening.

Circular marks may appear where you place the cup. This is a normal part of cupping, not a bruise, and not an injury. They usually fade within 3 to 7 days (a little longer at higher levels).

Seeing them is not a reason to stop. It simply means your body is recovering. Those marks are the sign that fresh circulation is finally reaching tissue that's been tight and under-circulated for so long. That's the work happening. Keep going.

05How often

Consistency is what
changes the tissue.

Your device runs a 20-minute session and shuts off on its own. Take that as your ceiling for any single area, not a target to chase.

Weeks 1–2
Every other day
Leave about 48 hours before you work the same area again, so the marks fade and the skin recovers. Keep each spot to just a few minutes while your skin adapts.
Weeks 3–4
Every other day, deeper
Same rhythm, but at higher levels and closer to a full session as your tolerance builds.
Ongoing
A few times a week
The maintenance sweet spot. To go more often, work a different area. Never return to the same marked spot inside 48 hours.

Rule of thumb: give any area at least 48 hours, and let the marks fade before you go back. With cupping, more is not better. Steady sessions across the week beat one intense session in a day.

06Lock it in: the NeckReset™ patch

A little warmth to carry
the session forward.

After your session, apply one NeckReset™ heat patch over the area you just worked. It adds soothing warmth to the tissue while it's still relaxed from your session.

Peel, apply to clean dry skin, and press to secure.
One patch per session. Single-use. Discard after use; it isn't made to be reworn.
Do not apply over broken or irritated skin.

Full patch instructions and heat-safety guidance are in your NeckReset Patch guide.

07What to expect, week by week

Progress is quiet,
until it isn't.

Session 1

You'll feel the tissue give during the session, and looseness right after. Marks may appear and fade within a few days.

Week 1

Morning stiffness starts to ease. Your first sessions show you where your tightest tissue actually lives.

Week 2

Many people notice they move through the workday differently. The tension that used to build early arrives later.

Week 3

The baseline is dropping. Mornings are usually where you notice the change first.

Weeks 4–6

Results compound. This is the tissue changing, not just relaxing for an afternoon.

Beyond week 6

The protocol becomes maintenance. Tissue that spent months or years tightening stays mobile because you keep it that way.

08Make it stick, between sessions

Three small habits
that hold the gains.

Hydrate
A glass of water before and after each session. Simple, non-negotiable.
Chin tuck
Sit tall, draw your chin straight back, hold 5 seconds, repeat 10 times. Resets your head over your spine.
Stand every 45 min
A brief stand and shoulder roll during the workday. Thirty seconds of movement undoes a lot of screen time.
09 · Beyond the neck

It works wherever tension lives.

Your neck and shoulders are the priority, but the same method works on the upper back, the shoulders, and tired legs after a workout. Once your neck routine is dialed in, the device goes wherever your tension does.

This is the start of feeling like yourself again.
