FULL FACE MASK : How's new OCEANREEF's NEPTUNE SPACE?

[medictom]

I can relate to the TMJ pain, I had it!I went to my Dentist to ask about it and was really amazed with the treatment plan he came up with, he knew I dive A LOT being a PSD and Insructor for rec/tec students,He put me on 200mg of Celebrex 2x a day,and called his brother-in-law who is Chiropractor, so I went over right away.
He examined me,did some sort of adjustment on the jaw, and connected me to some kind of muscle stimulating electrodes that looked like the machine came out of a bad BDSM porn movie.The first treatment was kind of weird as the elecricty makes the muscles around your eyes open and close your eyelid, and it worked its wonders around the jaw!The treatments were every 2 days for 2 weeks and voila!!I can use my handy AGA and my CCR (Megalodon) again.
Maybe you should see the Chiroprator, it won't! Oh!! It might a little at first:11:

Hope this helps you out some!:14: Dive Safe!!!

Before I spent the money on the Neptune Space, (which I have a couple dozen dives using mine and can't rate it higher for fit, comfort and useability) I think I'd give either a Wisdom mouthpiece or the Seacure mouthpiece. They both work on the same concept of spreading out the tension caused by keeping the mouthpiece in your teeth throughout your entire mouth. I've found many times that is more than sufficient to ease the pain of jaw fatigue and tmj. If that works, you are off cheap. If not, the Neptune Space is a great choice. Ocean Reef has done a great job of continuing to evolve a nice piece of gear.

Hey all... first off I have a Neptune 2 and I have not (yet) had any of the problems u have mentioned.... ppl bash on it because they don't know how to use it so it seems.
The only problem I see with it is that it does add a bit of positive buoyancy to your chin and sometimes it feels that the mask is ready to leave your chin and float up - though its just a feeling... I have not dived the AGA but I tried it on.. same comfort, btw AGA is also A gas mask first and a dive mask later

Scuba.com - have an interesting question for u, I have a Quick Disconnect on my Neptune and was wondering whether if I buy the MALE part if I can use it with my Octopus Second Stage... what I am trying to do is make the Octopus QD this way I do not need to constantly change hoses on my First Page when I don't wish to use the FFM?!?
