Acupressure mat - Effect: How the Shakti Mat can help you

A mat with spikes. If you think of fakirs and nail boards at first, you're not far wrong. This is because acupressure in the form of our mats goes back to traditional Chinese medicine, just like acupuncture. But what do acupressure mats do? Put simply, you lie down on the mat and at that moment several thousand points press into your back. What sounds strenuous at first is actually the complete opposite - pure relaxation and regeneration. The basic idea behind it: Various meridians or energy pathways run through your body. If these are blocked, this can cause pain or illness. While yogis and fakirs used to use nail boards to release blockages, we make it a little easier for you with our acupressure mats.

The points on the acupressure mat are pressed against the acupuncture points when used. This stimulates the blood circulation, which can release the blockage. This can help with various problems, such as back pain, muscle tension, sleep disorders and stress.

The less, the more intense - which Shakti Mat is your acupressure mat?

Did you know that the number of points on the acupressure mat has an impact on the effect? Our acupressure mats are therefore available in different versions: with a few points and many points. The different degrees of intensity are easy to explain. An acupressure mat with a large number of points also offers your body more contact surface. The weight is therefore distributed over more points and therefore over more of the body. The fewer tips the acupressure mat has, the smaller the contact surface, as you are distributing your entire body weight over fewer tips. The lower the number of spikes, the greater the intensity. Shakti Mat offers acupressure mats with between 8,280 and 4,140 spikes. But which one is right for you?

Your new acupressure mat: just the right intensity for your level

Whether you should choose an acupressure mat with more or fewer points depends on your previous experience and your sensitivity to pain.

If you are generally very sensitive to pain, you should definitely start with the beginner's mat. It has 8,280 spikes and therefore offers you a large contact surface for your body. The effect is slightly reduced so that you can start slowly. This mat is also ideal if you want to treat sensitive areas of the body such as the abdomen or chest.

If you are looking for a balanced intensity for your daily massage with the acupressure mat, our mat with 6,210 points is your new daily companion. The number of tips is in the medium range, making this mat a good choice for almost every user. It is used by 90% of our customers. Are you looking for a unique design in addition to the effect? Then our Shakti Mat Acupressure Mat Premium in black might be your new favorite.

Do you already have acupressure experience and already own a mat? If you want to increase the intensity of your acupressure application, our advanced mat with only 4,140 points offers you a spiky but soothing feeling of relaxation. The effect is more intense due to the smaller contact surface and is therefore not suitable for beginners or people who are sensitive to pain.
