ABSTRACT:
A support is provided for a user's head and neck which provides varying degrees of support depending on the combination of support members utilized. A posterior shell which supports the occiput can be combined with either ear protectors or an anterior shell, or both and an overlying posterior shell can be utilized to provide increased support. A single posterior shell could include all support features such as the ear protectors formed as an integral port thereof. The anterior shell can have molded contours to increase its rigidity and jaw engaging side walls to reduce lateral movement.
