For people with the following conditions: neurological conditions including motor neurone disease (MND); cerebral palsy; whiplash; head and spinal cord injuries; MS; arthritis; ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease). It can also be used for those without a medical condition but who need to stop their head falling forwards on long-haul flights / coach / car trips. 

The heads first collar is a head support / neck brace which provides firm cervical support.  It is available in four sizes: large, medium, small and junior.  It was developed and manufactured in the UK using Heads First patented technology following consultation with both clients and professionals.  It can be adjusted for comfort, and can be used for a variety of medical conditions.  The covering material is softer and more comfortable than alternatives.

Unlike other cervical collars on the market, the heads first collar is latex-free (at no extra cost), and so there is no risk of an allergic reaction.  The open design allows visual access and air movement in the neck area.  Both the heads first collar and its accessories are the lowest-priced products of their kind on the market.

Measure from the angle of the jaw to the middle of the chin. Normally this is the shortest distance underneath the jaw, but if this is not possible, measure along the edge of the jaw and then subtract one centimetre. Once you have this measurement (‘X’), check the table below to see which size collar you need:

Size ‘X’ Product code
Large 13cm (5 inches) HFC1
Medium 11.5cm (4.5 inches) HFC2
Small 10cm (4 inches) HFC3
Junior 9cm (3.5 inches) HFC4

Note:  if the measurement is halfway between two sizes,                   choose the smaller size.

Dear Sir/Madam, Earlier this year I purchased a Collar from you to try and limit the neck and shoulder pain I always experience for some weeks after long distance flying. I have just returned from a round the world trip including several 12 hour flights, using your Collar and I am delighted to report that I have no resulting pain. Previous attempts with other neck braces failed completely. I can therefore strongly recommend your Collar for flight comfort. Many thanks and kind regards,

Maurice L

Really happy with my purchase thank you, will recommend and buy again
