How much is the distance between the wall and neck cushion? Will it curve my body if use it against the wall?

Mine sits up right next to the wall. I use the wall for support and it does not curve my back. The neck cushion is right next to the wall.

With it pushed up against the wall the distance is less than 8 inches. There may be a curve in your back if you can't support yourself with your core.

Agree with C. Hunt. You shouldn't use the wall to support your body while upside down (definitely will cause your spine to be curved backward, not a pretty sight). Head stand is a balance pose which should be done with your spine in straight line from crown of head to pelvis, while engaging your entire body especially the core.

It is somewhat curved, but it might work in a very small chair. I have a camp chair that I could put it in with the front down. It is a great back cushion.

Had it for a month now, sat on in with cushion as well as without. I weigh 185 lbs. No indication of stretching. Think it will not happen if you use cushion. Time will tell. The fabric seems much stronger than the typical fabric used in relatively cheap beach chairs of foldable chairs, etc.

The whole back sits against the wall! Unless you have angled paneling, but even then it works with the right positioning. Hope that helps!

No, it is not a wall-hugger. Reclined length is 63", from top of headrest to end of footrest.

I'm sorry I can't answer this question. I returned the item after getting the smallest one and it was still too large for my 5' 4" frame and my body and neck were not at all aligned. I took one look at it in the box and put it down without even opening the package and knew it was not going to help my neck. I went with the water center fill pillow and it is the best after trying so many!

It cannot be placed close to a wall as it reclines all the way back. It is not the kind of recliner that can be used that way.

The chair will compress slightly when you sit on it. The cushion is 33 1/2" when the chair is empty, but the chair settles down to about 32" when I sit in it (185lb).

Hmmm...well, I bought the Core Products Mid-Core Gentle Fiber Neck Pillow Model # 222, which was too big for me because i'm 5'2". Might be a good size for you but I don't really recommend this pillow for bad necks. I've suffered chronic neck pain for 2 years now and this pillow didn't help at all. I've also tried millet pillows, hotel pillows, and even the micropedic pillows from Tony Little. The only solution I've found to get good rest from my neck pain was to use a stomach pillow as a head pillow (flatter than most regular pillow...got mine at ikea) then roll up a towel and place it where the arch of my neck is (till its comfortable for you). This way you can adjust your pillow to fit your head and neck. All pillows come in different sizes, so its hard to recommend something since everyone is different. Its very frustrating. You can always go to Bed Bath and Beyond (use 20% coupons) and try their many pillows too.. If you don't like it...you can always return it. Buying pillows on amazon and returning it is difficult so never buying pillows online again. Oh and if you are a side sleeper, you can place pillows between your leg and under your arm to rest your shoulders from dropping. My physical therapy taught me that. Helped a lot with the shoulders.

The cushion on me..(5'5")reaches my head. But the rollers don't go to my neck, which would be nice! I'm buying a smaller one just for the neck area. Saying that, it is still a great massager for my shoulders down to my lower back.

You wouldn't be comfortable because of the hard plastic pieces on the back. Sometimes they bother me when I am reclining. Give it a try and find out for yourself how it feels.

I fastened it in the last place where the padding would meet because I thought it would be uncomfortable if I extended it. All there would be in the back part of neck is velcro. I think your neck would need the cushioning when you sat in a tall chair or were trying to sleep. I measured the interior where it would fit against the neck and it measured 21 1/2" and you need some "slack" to be comfortable.

The contour part is on either end of the 15" width and runs down the 10" side. If you want the contour part under your neck, you only have 10" to turn your head. The pillow is designed backwards, in my opinion.

This cushion will not flatten. I would say it is 2 inches when sitting on it and when you get up it goes right back to the original size if over 2 inches. I am 300lbs and this works for me in the car as well as at home.

As a rule, a person's neck would rest at the top of the cushion. But as with any chair, it depends on the height of the person. La-Z-Boy Outdoor

I suggest you to place it about 2.5/3.0 feet away from walls. It should be enough... Have a good workout!

I would say you can put it against a wall as a wall hugger, but it could also serve as a stand alone chair in a room. I bought this for my son's room because of the fact that it wasn't real wide and big. The width including the arms is 33 1/2 inches; the back is 43" high, and the length without it reclined is 30". It does fit nicely in a small room.
