The weight
you carry
isn't yours.
Your head is 12 lbs. Tilted 60° to a screen, it's 60 lbs of pressure on your spine. ARC 01 is a 15-minute unwind: EMS that tells the muscle to let go, heat that brings blood back.
No app. No loud buzzing. You can wear it on Zoom.

How a 12 lb head
becomes a 60 lb load.
Dr. Kenneth Hansraj, Surgical Technology International — measured with a 3D spine model: tilt your head 60° to look at your phone and your neck carries 60 lbs of effective force. Not 60 lbs of weight. 60 lbs of load.
Remote workers average 187 flexions / day. Over time that load compresses discs, throttles circulation, and creates the low-grade headache you think is normal. It isn't baseline — it's compensation.
At 60°, your neck holds 5× its neutral load — all day. That's why 15 min of decompression works: you remove the multiplier.
Three tools PTs use.
One you’ll actually use.
EMS Pulse
Low-frequency pulses interrupt the pain-tension loop. Not a massage gun hammering muscle — a nerve signal telling SCM + traps to release.
Infrared Heat
107.6°F held constant by a sensor, not swinging. Warmth that stays, so blood returns. 98–113°F range, calibrated.
Weightless Cradle
130g U-shape that barely grips. Silicone needs light skin contact for EMS to conduct. So you can work while it works.
On. Breathe. Off.
Mist + Place
Light damp on neck, loop it on. Whispers mode. No gel.
Heat opens, pulse releases
Shoulders drop an inch without you trying.
Auto-off at 15
Safety timer. No overuse. Toss in bag. USB-C, 7 days per charge.
Cost of feeling
better, per session.
“I bought it to avoid a $1,200 PT package. Evening sessions while answering email. My trap tension I thought was personality was gone by Thursday.”
Field notes.
Better than Theragun for neck. Passive. Wear it during standup. Heat is instant, no aggressive pounding.
Migraine days 8 → 2. My neuro said cervicogenic. 15 min after laptop, before dinner. Buffer, not cure, but massive.
My husband steals it. We fought over it after daycare dropoff. Get the Duo. Seriously.
One for your desk.
One for your bag.
