Soft Cervical Collar and Heat Retention
#1
Soft Cervical Collar and Heat Retention
I have been using the Caldera Releaf Neck Collar in a large size.(https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CN97R8O?psc...ct_details) I like it a lot better than my KB chin strap, but find it hot.  I do like the way that it fits, and overall I have a decent leak rate depending on the night.  Is there a SCC that tends to be cooler?

RE: Soft Cervical Collar and Heat Retention
I have tried probably a dozen SCC’s and the Caldera Releaf was the coolest I have used. It is an individual preference, so ordering a few from Amazon to try given their return policy is worth a shot.

A few to consider giving a go

Caldera (already there but included for a comprehensive list)
Velpeau (popular with many)
Core Products (another popular one)
Futuro (what you may find at a local pharmacist)
Medline (works for some)

Others may chime in with different vendors. Those are ones I’ve tried.

Thank you.  I find it kind of crazy how a SCC can lower mouth leaks without having to worry about tape or a chin strap.

I tried and used several different soft collars and liked the Caldera the best by far.  Then I tried mouth tape and I like that WAY better.  For me, it stops the leaks better and I find it much more comfortable.
