Shakti Mat

Lying naked on thousands of spikes is admittedly a bit crazy. But to help you find the right start for you, because we know we're all a bit different when it comes to spicy challenges, we have three different intensities of mat:

The most important factor in choosing the right mat is your sensitivity to pain, rather than the symptoms, as all mats have the same effect. They just have different intensities.

Many of our customers report that the mat helps them with specific symptoms, such as neuropathy, tinnitus and sleep problems.
You are welcome to take a look at our reviews in this regard https://shaktimat.de/pages/kundenbewertungen
We also have a number of blog articles on various symptoms: https://shaktimat.de/blogs/news Or you can join our FB acupressure group: ttps://www.facebook.com/groups/Akupressurmatte

And here again an overview of all intensities:

Most of our customers buy our original ShaktiMat in the color orange, lavender-pink or green, as well as our limited edition pastel green and pastel blue. This version of the mat has 6,210 spikes and is suitable for both beginners and advanced users.

The black ShaktiMat with its golden embellishments and black tips is our Premium edition. It has the same number of spikes as the orange, lavender-pink and green mat and is therefore just as intense.

The ShaktiMat Advanced is available in the color indigo and has 4,140 spikes, which are two millimeters longer than the other mats. The body weight is distributed over far fewer spikes, which can intensify the application and effect. We recommend this mat to those who like a challenge and have been using the original for some time. (Extreme) athletes often choose the ShaktiMat Advanced to use for regeneration after their training sessions.

The ShaktiMat Light is available in yellow and has over 8,280 spikes. Here the body weight is distributed over many more tips, which makes the application less intensive.

Whatever feels good is allowed. You know your body best and you know what feels good. But you're thinking ouch, how can it feel good to lie on thousands of spikes?
That's right, it can take some effort, so we recommend starting slowly and building up over time.
The first 5 minutes are all about powering through, then comes the feel-good effect, as only then are the body's own hormones released.
It is said that it takes 21 days to integrate a new habit. We therefore recommend daily use for 20 minutes. However, it is by no means harmful or unhealthy to lie on the mat for longer or to use the mat several times a day. Many people fall asleep on their mat, which is completely harmless. As a general rule, use the mat regularly to feel the best effects.

The ticking of our mats is made from recycled polyether foam, which is currently the most sustainable option on the market. But that was not the only reason for our decision.

Polyether foam (cold foam, also often abbreviated to PUR or PU foam) is an HR foam (HR = highly resilient). Cold foam is the best and most valuable material among foams and stands for the highest quality. Its advantages over conventional foams are its high air permeability and breathability thanks to its open-cell pore structure. The material also offers a more pleasant lying comfort thanks to its high point elasticity. Because your sleeping comfort is important to us.

As the original acupressure mat since 2007, we simply know how it's done. Quality, sustainability and durability are not just empty words for us, but what defines us. And fair and ethical production? Not negotiable!

Beginners start with 10-15 minutes, while advanced users often use acupressure mats such as those from Shakti Mat for 20-40 minutes.

An acupressure mat can relieve muscle tension, promote blood circulation, and aid relaxation.

The mat can be used daily or several times a week, depending on personal preference.

The material, needle arrangement, and workmanship are crucial, which is why many people rely on brands such as Shakti Mat.

An acupressure mat is a mat with many pressure points that stimulates acupressure points on the body.

Lie down relaxed on the mat, ideally on your back or neck, and breathe calmly.

It is best to apply them slowly so that the body can get used to the pressure of the tips.

In case of open wounds, skin diseases, or during pregnancy, consultation should be sought beforehand.
