Alignment first. Comfort follows.
The Nap series uses physical therapy–inspired design to decompress and realign the cervical spine in short, targeted sessions.
Watch our how-to-use video to see it in action.
Designed by a physical therapist. Built on physical therapy.
SOMA Nap is shaped around two manual therapy techniques used to support cervical alignment and release deep tension.
CV4 — Compression of the Fourth Ventricle
Calms the nervous system through sustained pressure at the base of the skull.
OCBR — Occipital Cranial Base Release
Supports the cervical curve and relieves tension at the base of the neck.
No App. No Electricity.
Place it, lie down, gravity does the rest.
Firm enough to work. Comfortable enough to stay.
Hard plastic gets uncomfortable and collects dust.
Reaches What Foam Rollers Can't
Surface tools miss the smaller, deeper muscles where tension actually lives.
Calmer Nervous System
Stress and bad posture affect more than your body. Kanuda tells your nervous system it's safe to let go.
“I've tried several suboccipital release tools before, but most were too bulky and never seemed to target the right areas—especially for a smaller neck frame. The Kanuda is thoughtfully designed and anatomically shaped to comfortably hit the right spots without causing pressure or pain.
The best way I can describe it: you know that gentle traction feeling when a massage therapist lightly pulls on your skull and neck? It feels exactly like that—except you can do it every day at home.
”
“I use the suboccipital nap daily for about 20 minutes to release the tension in my neck and upper back. The combined use of a Kanuda pillow every night and the suboccipital nap daily has helped immensely and reduced the number of migraines I get per month. I can now turn my head freely without feeling neck stiffness or pain.
”
“It has helped tremendously with my cervical neck pain and sciatica nerve issues. Takes awhile to figure out where the exact position is but once you do it becomes muscle memory!
Highly recommend. Great quality—you can tell it's not going to fall apart like others do right away.
