Case Study: Neck Pain Relief & Hair Care Benefits for a Thalidomide Victim
Background
A user—who is also the President of the Canadian Association of Thalidomide Victims—has arms measuring only seven inches long, leading her to rely heavily on her neck for day-to-day tasks. This dependence resulted in severe neck pain, significantly disrupting her sleep and overall comfort.
Introducing Slipssy
After seeing Slipssy—a two-layer, friction-reducing pillow cover—featured on television, she decided to give it a try, thinking, “I have nothing to lose.”
Reported Outcome
According to this user, Slipssy delivered remarkable results:
-
Neck Pain Relief
- Nights are now free of neck pain—a significant improvement given her previous discomfort.
- “I am very satisfied because...I had severe neck pain, but since I use their product, my nights are now without pain.”
-
Improved Hair Care
- A persistent parting at the back of her hair disappeared.
- Hair is easier to comb, with fewer tangles.
-
Reduced Sleep Wrinkles
- “Even your sleep wrinkles will almost disappear.”
Public Recommendation
She publicly shared a written review and photo with Slipssy, stating she recommends the product to other Thalidomide victims who might benefit from the friction-reducing design. In her words:
“I have to give Slipssy’s founders 5 Stars because they changed my life... I recommend it to you without hesitation.”
