Wearing it as sleepwear promotes the parasympathetic nervous system, which is active in a relaxed state.


Combatting Neck and Shoulder Stiffness from Smartphone and Computer Use: The "2WAY Comfort Light"


VENEX, a developer and seller of recovery wear for rest and sleep, has launched the "2WAY Comfort Light." This new product uses a proprietary fiber material blended with minerals like nanoplatinum, designed to cover the neck area, promoting fatigue recovery and restful sleep. It is available at department stores, sports goods stores nationwide, and on the company's website.

A Summer Version of the "Neck Wrap" That Has Sold Over 10,000 Units


The "2WAY Comfort Light" is a new product that adapts the fabric of the "2WAY Comfort," launched last September and selling over 10,000 units in six months, for summer use. By switching from the conventional polyester blend to a mesh material, it improves breathability, absorbency, and moisture-wicking properties, addressing nighttime sweat during the summer.



VENEX "2WAY Comfort Light"


The "2WAY Comfort Light" is a slip-on type that covers the neck area, designed to promote recovery from fatigue around the neck, often caused by prolonged use of smartphones and computers.


The weak electromagnetic waves emitted by nanoplatinum and other minerals blended into the fabric stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, which is active in a relaxed state. This system controls autonomic nerves (parasympathetic and sympathetic) that regulate internal organs and blood vessels. By activating the parasympathetic nervous system, it relaxes the neck muscles and promotes blood flow, thereby alleviating neck and shoulder stiffness.


Furthermore, the blue light from smartphones and computers is known to cause sleep disturbances, such as shallow sleep, by activating the sympathetic nervous system, which is dominant when the body and brain are active. Wearing the "2WAY Comfort Light" as sleepwear at night helps to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, leading to restful sleep. It is also recommended for relaxing at home.




Also Useful for "Napping at the Office"


The previous "2WAY Comfort," which sold over 10,000 units in six months, was popular not only among athletes but also among business professionals suffering from chronic fatigue and housewives with non-specific symptoms. The new product also promotes sleep when worn while relaxing in a chair, making it ideal for "napping at the office."


It can be slipped on over the head and has a generous vertical length of 26 centimeters, allowing it to cover the entire face, making it useful for office workers seeking a moment of respite.
