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.
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.
Your first session, in five steps.
Nervous first-timer? Start here. The deeper science can wait. This is what to do right now.
Full controls, charging and cleaning are in your User Manual.
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.
Everything above works against tissue that's already being crushed.

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.
- 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)
- 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.
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.
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.
The rule: a strong pulling sensation is exactly right. Sharp pain is not. If it hurts, drop two levels and build back up gradually.
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.
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.
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.
Full patch instructions and heat-safety guidance are in your NeckReset Patch guide.
Progress is quiet,
until it isn't.
You'll feel the tissue give during the session, and looseness right after. Marks may appear and fade within a few days.
Morning stiffness starts to ease. Your first sessions show you where your tightest tissue actually lives.
Many people notice they move through the workday differently. The tension that used to build early arrives later.
The baseline is dropping. Mornings are usually where you notice the change first.
Results compound. This is the tissue changing, not just relaxing for an afternoon.
The protocol becomes maintenance. Tissue that spent months or years tightening stays mobile because you keep it that way.
Three small habits
that hold the gains.
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.
