Stress Management - back pain relief, insomnia


Click here for more information
I previously had just the Nayoya acupressure mat but I gave that to my sister to use and decided to try out Nayoya's full set which includes the acupressure mat and acupressure neck pillow for neck pain. I dont have neck pain per-say, more like a stiff neck most of the time. I position my body and neck on the mat and neck pillow and just close my eyes and try to relax. After 10 minutes I am so relaxed and pain free that I almost want to sleep on the set the whole night. The neck pillow is very well crafted and contours to the shape of the neck perfectly. I love it!!!

I used to practice yoga a few years ago and this is even better. The full set by Nayoya puts an end to stress and neck cramps as well as getting rid of minor aches and pains in my back. I used to have poor sleep and wake up with a very stiff neck that would make it hard to get out of bed. This coupled with minor aches in my mid and lower back made office work difficult because of the constant sitting for 8 hours. After trying to back pain relief mat and the neck pillow for back pain relief I no longer wake up with a stiff neck. It feels like a deep tissue massage almost the way it relaxes every part of your neck and back. Feels incredible. I get so relaxed before bed that I catch myself almost falling asleep on the mat and pillow. Definitely a 5 star product

I upgraded from having the Nayoya mat to the full set so that I can help get rid of neck cramps. I sit in a cubicle for 10 hours per day and my neck gets very stiff. The Nayoya mat itself is great for back pain relief and the full set makes it 10x better.

Great for back pain relief and neck pain relief. The set is so light I fall asleep from laying on it.

I have been using the acupressure mat by Nayoya and love the positive effect is has been having on me in terms of decreasing stress levels after a long day of sitting in an office chair as well as the lower back pain relief. I decided to try the full set to relieve a stiff neck and so far so good. The full set makes the experience 10x better because it gives your body a full back and neck pain relief. Every time i use the full set for 30+ minutes I feel as if I got a full body massage. I have also noticed an improvement in the quality of my sleep as well as being able to fall asleep faster as opposed to tossing and turning for an hour and a half before falling asleep. This set makes daily life that much better.

Gave this to my mom as a gift. She's loving it and can't be thankful enough

for it has done a lot to help her sleep and reduce back pain. I couldn't be

thankful enough either, as I could find something easy to use, inexpensive and

that is actually doing something for her.



Thanks for this product!

I am in love with this mat and neck relief pillow!! This full set for full body pain relief is money well spent. The full set is a bit more expensive then the mat as a standalone but the neckupressure pillow makes it that much better. I used to suffer from mild back aches in my mid and lower back down the middle as well as a stiff neck from having a office desk job and Nayoya's set helped relieve the paints.

This acupressure set consisting of an acupressure mat and acupressure pillow is very light and gives you a new neck and back after using it for a few days. There is about 8,000 acupressure points on the set and they all touch every pressure point on the back and neck for fast pain relief and restful sleep. The full set is the complete package!!

For years I have used different products and massagers for my back and neck and other alternative medicines and nothing ever helped.

I Love Nayoya's acupressure mat by itself, it's great for back pain relief. Definetly a 5 star product. Together as a complete set this deserves 10 stars. I have had more energy since using the set, mostly due to better sleep and a decrease in stress. Also my mid and lower back pain had substantially subsided and my neck cramps completely went away. I can't wait to see what else Nayoya has.

I have chronic back pain and a very stressful life. I purchased this set. My husband thought I was crazy and could not lay down on it even wearing a shirt. I find it very comfortable, but have not noticed any difference in my back pain or muscle spasms. Sometimes I put the pillow behind my back while I am sitting at my desk or watching tv. Works great as a lumbar support.

This mat and pillow do nothing but poke you with little sharp plastic barbs, The pillow is quite high so it pushes your head up at a uncomfortable angle. Also this company's return policy is if you open the package and try it, it is yours even if does nothing for you. CAREFUL - Back Pain Relief - Insomnia - Pain Management - Stress Relief

Fibromyalgia - pain relief, stress relief


Click here for more information
I love my Shakti mat for general stress reduction & for my back pain. When I use it I feel the acupuncture points release stress in my back & heat my back area. My kids notice that I am more relaxed when I use it frequently. I have also found it helpful in relieving my lower back pain & cramps. I use it whenever I have back pain or cramps & it seems to relax my muscles & overall feeling of pain. It has been a very inexpensive alternative to massage & acupuncture treatments. The mat feels great on my back & did not take any time to get used to. I do lie on it with my clothes on. I think that people have different sensitivities to the mat. I have two boys who also love it & use it. One of them prefers to use it with a sheet over it, as he is more sensitive to the spikes. I recently realized that I can use it for other parts of my body as well, & enjoy rolling it to use on my neck area. I have found it to be a great benefit.

I've had this for about a year. I used it several times a week for a while, then it got forgotten. After a spin on the stationary bike this afternoon I saw it there and thought I really should start using that again. So I did. Had to change the rear inner tube earlier which put the back into spasm. With no shirt or cloth I slowly roll down on it from a sitting position. You will feel every one of those sharp points. Hurts a little, but not unbearable and does not draw blood or leave a mark even. In a couple minutes you no longer feel it. I place a small pillow under the mat in the neck area. As usual I fell asleep! This time with Michael Savage blaring on the radio. Very unusual and welcome for someone who normally is unable to nap no matter how tired. I woke up in ten minutes or so refreshed, rested with less aches and pains. Being 65 that's saying something. Don't know how this works, but it does. Get one, I think you'll like it.

I am very much enjoying my accupressure mat! I suffer from occaisional insomnia, and using the mat before bed really helps me to get de-stressed at night, and I have been sleeping better because of it. It helps with my tension headaches too. I have also discovered that if I use the mat lying on my stomach, it helps calm an upset stomach, and menstrual cramps. I use my mat at least 5 nights a week, sometimes more. I haven't quite built up to the point where I can use it without a shirt on yet though. But I love using it, and I am quite pleased with my purchase. There are some accupressure mats out there that are pretty expensive, so I was very happy to find one of the exact same design as a pricey name-brand one (I won't mention the name)at such a great price! - Pain Relief - Stress Relief - Ache - Acupressure

Pain Management - pain relief, stress relief

I see the American reviewers are much more positive about the mat than the British. But I agree with you Americans on this point.



I have used it naked (otherwise I can't feel the spikes) and up to an hour at a time, though I began gradually.



At first it feels extremely painful. though I suspect this appplies only to us unhealthy people who are already suffering from this and that and have intense need of stimulation of the various points. (My 12-year old granddaughter when trying out a Shakti cushion claimed she felt no pain when using it while other members of the family - adults - felt it to be extremely uncomfortable.) However after about ten minutes, generally, the pain subsides and one can hardly feel it. In my case, however, when using the mat on the buttocks, firstly, it was more painful than usual, and secondly, the pain at first did not subside, though it does now slightly, though only after a long time.



When exposing only the back area to the mat, after about ten minutes I generally feel a wonderful, extremely comfortable inner heat spread throughout the area, similar to leaning on a hot water bottle, but as stated a deep inner warmth. The feeling is almost orgasmic - it feels like the exposed cells are feeling ecstatic, and extremely satisfied. This is a wonderful feeling - in fact I'm becoming addicted to use of this mat!



I suffer from MS and several other auto-immune diseases. I had had most of my left buttock numb for several years. After about three applications of the mat on my back (not buttocks) suddenly my left buttock felt normal. This was fantastic. Also when being scanned with something called Meta therapy (a treatment used in Russia and other East European countries for about 20 years in their hospitals - something I get done regularly in Denmark where I live - but not administered by doctors!), it could be seen that my heart and circulation were extremely improved, apparently functioning perfectly. The therapist found it amazing and told me to use the mat twice a day from then on. However, I don't generally do that.I use it when I can, and when I feel like it. But the improvement that occurred did so after only a handful of "treatments".



Sometimes I feel extremely relaxed after using the mat, though I don't always notice this effect.



I'm not saying this mat is a miracle worker, but it definitely has an extremely beneficial effect, and I feel that users should try it out on various parts of the body. I feel that the more health problems one has, the greater will be the benefit. But even if you do not suffer from severe health problems, use of the mat will surely have an immense preventive effect.



I recommend it highly. Who knows what its use could lead to in the way of dramatic health improvement?

It really is a wonderful product. I use it regularly, with relaxing music, and always feel invigorated afterward. I also take it with me while traveling. 10-15 minutes on my Shakti mat is so restorative! And as far as it being faddish, I understand what the other reviewer is trying to convey...but if you're into maintaining your health or improving it, I recommend it. I've had mine for nearly a year and my husband and I both use it regularly--mostly on our backs, but sometimes on our feet (after lots of sightseeing!). And I can't say that the Shakti is the main reason for my health or well being, but it feels great and I feel wonderful after using it. Highly recommended.

My boyfriend bought this for my anxiety and lower back pain....it hurts at first, but only for a few minutes. Then you feel warm and then you...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. I have yet to use this thing without falling asleep. It's great for relaxation. I highly recommend it--might really work for insomniacs!

The Shakti Mat is simply amazing! This is the original Swedish spike mat and I actually bought mine while I was in Sweden last year.

I still use it several times a week when feeling stressed or tense at night and most times I even fall asleep on it :)

It's so relaxing you just melt away...

I received my shakti mat from [...] and I'm very pleased! I've had chronic pain since I was a child but was not diagnosed until my mid-twenties as having hypermobility (which caused fibromyalgia). I've found the shakti mat to be a very helpful pain management solution, particularly since my acupuncture appointments and other alternative means can be quite costly. I've also found it helpful in relieving neck tension and overall stress. While people with no pain or non-chronic pain may have difficulty getting used to the mat and may find it initially uncomfortable, in areas like my back that are very desensitized to pain it took no time at all to get used to it, it actually feels great! I would definitely recommend this product particularly for those who suffer from chronic nagging pain. - Pain Relief - Stress Relief - Fibromyalgia - Pain Management

Stress Relief - stress relief, reflexology


Click here for more information
For most of my life I've been practicing all sorts of sports, from football (high school), lacrosse and now Jiu Jitsu (for the last couple of years). Consistently putting my body under intense stress without breaks (I thought I was superman) resulted in severe muscle tension and lower back pain. I travel a lot for amateur competitions and I kept coming across people who would carry a mat with little spikes on it. This mat got me really interested, so when I asked about it I heard nothing but good things. Obviously I was skeptical but thought I had nothing to lose. When I researched acupuncture mats I came across Nayoya and thought I'd give it a try because of the low price.



Within a few days of use (2 times a day; after training & at night for 25 minutes each session), I've felt results that I doubted I would ever have. I actually started going to an acupuncturist recently, but after trying the Nayoya mat I decided to save my money and use it exclusively to test its benefits. My lower back pain has been decreasing every day! The way that this mat is allowing me to relax my body and reduce my muscle tension is quickly making it one of my favorite possessions. My back pain is reduced significantly and my attitude towards my training is way brighter than it has been in the past couple of years! I was so impressed that I decided to share my joy with you all and HIGHLY recommend anyone with migraines, back pain and even a poor mood to look into one! I'm sure there are other benefits that people may experience, this mat is great!

I have three mats in the house one for me one for my mother and one for my wife and we all love it.

It helps me fall asleep if im having cases of insomnia due to stress or if i am too tense. I've also found that it helps untie the knots in my back. If there's something in particular thats bothering you--say your lower back or neck then you can put a rolled up towel underneath the mat and under that area to intensify the healing process and removed knots from that particular area . The mat also seems to make the blood start circulating again and give a tingly sensation.

Everyone should get one. The hundreds of plastic spikes might look scary but they feel so good on your body, very tingly feeling and relaxing!

My mother who is 64 years old uses this every night also before going to bed because it helps her relax and puts her in a good stress free mood.

My wife uses the mat after her yoga sessions and sometimes falls asleep on it after meditation.

I have Fibromyalgia and Myofascial Pain Syndrome and am in pain every waking hour, a lot of the time severe pain. My whole upper body is full of tender points and knots. I have pain throughout my whole body, but the bulk of it is in my neck, shoulders, back, and down both arms. I've been out of work for over a year and am getting ready to go back. Since I bought this, I have confidence it will help me enough to handle a reduced schedule. I also have a shoulder and neck massager and a back massager, but this seems to help the most. I lay it on the floor with a yoga mat under the top to get into my neck. I wear a very thin shirt or use it on bare skin. If it's too much for you, just wear something thicker. When I lay on it, it's like I experience euphoria. I roll around on it and bring my knees into my chest and rock back and forth on my back and the pain is drastically diminished or goes away. The pain does come back, but I do it several times a day and look forward to doing it. I've also had many more bearable days since I started using it, so it just may have some longterm healing properties. I just can't stress enough how much this is helping me. If you have pain, you need to buy this. It could change your life, or at least, help you make it through the day and give you some relief. This is the best $30.00 I've ever spent!

I found out about the Nayoya Acupressure Mat from my aunt who uses it with her physical therapy patients and recommended it to me. For a while now, I have suffered from poor sleep cycles, bursts of migraines, stress and slight lower back pain. I was skeptical of the mat because I've never heard of it before but ordered it during the Cyber Monday sale.



I want to report that the results so far have been terrific. I am currently unemployed, therefore I have the freedom to use this mat 2-3 times per day for 20 minute sessions. I had a migraine the other day so I used the mat barefoot and stepped into the spikes for 5 minutes and the migraine went away.



My lower back feels much better and I am sleeping 6-7 hours per night now instead of 4 so I guess all in all this mat works the way it is advertised to work. It definitely exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend it.

I was in a car accident last year june and i had to stop therapy bc the stuff they were using actually made my back worse. I have been going to the gym to sdee if my back get better and it has been making it a little better. But i still had a tingling in my lower back and my upper back was hurting from where i had acupuncture. I got this mat fast from amazon like in 4 days and i used it immediatly. It hurts like crazy if u lay on the floor with it without using a shirt. but after like two minutes the pain goes away and u can feel the circulation happeneing in your back. it felt so weird and my back felt hot and warm after i got up. but in less than 5 minutes of laying on it my lower back pain decreased a lot. I used it 3 times since for 5-8 minute sessions and this mat is great. My back pain is going away so fast and i am so happy i got this mat...if i can lay on it longer im sure with time my back pain would be illiminated. Please get this mat if u suffer form back pain it will help a lot!!!! - Stress Relief - Reflexology - Acupressure - Health

Swedish Massage - acupressure, stress relief


Click here for more information
I've only had the mat for a few weeks, but I am using it regularly and found it to really help with relaxation. It does take some getting used to, and still sometimes can be too sharp for me depending on how I lie on it (more intense when on side; more diffused on back). That said, I've fallen asleep on it a couple of times and found it's helped with back and hip pain, too. If you are interested in alternative methods for pain relief or stress reduction, then I'd recommend it. However, it's not like just getting a blissful massage-- it's definitely more like drinking a tea that helps you relax but still has a bitter taste.

My neighbor suggested my husband and I try this mat since I have a problem with sleep deprevation and him stress, lack of energy. This mat is simply amazing. After the initial shocks of pain subside, your body goes through a wave of flushing warm heat. It instantly relaxes you. It normally takes me 45 minutes to 1 hour to fall asleep. The second time using the mat I remember laying on it and looking at the clock setting myself mentally for 10 minutes, the last time I looked, I had fallen asleep for over an hour! I since then have recommended it to everyone I know.

The Shakti Mat is simply amazing! This is the original Swedish spike mat and I actually bought mine while I was in Sweden last year.

I still use it several times a week when feeling stressed or tense at night and most times I even fall asleep on it :)

It's so relaxing you just melt away...

Wow! A few minutes of using this and I was hooked. I practice martial arts and yoga and this is a must have. Start slow, this is an exhilarating product, and is really powerful. It is well made and has no artificial smell or anything. The spikes are sturdy and well made - but they are sharp and can hurt you if not careful. When used as recommended with patience and care, this is a great product!

I got this mat for my husband for his birthday. He has lower back problems and read an article that this would help. He still uses a shirt when he lies on it, and he does like it. His whole back is red after he uses it, but I think it increases circulation thus helping the muscles to relax. Definitely a different experience and if you endure some "pain" it does relax you. Our dog on the other hand stays clear away from it after his paw touched it.

Having lived in China for a year, I wanted to try something similar to the massages I'd get there. No, they don't usually use oil in China, and it's acupressure, not puncture, being used for massages. So, I figured that since my muscles felt great there, and the government subsidizes the massages for the public, that there must be something to it. I've been using the mat now for 2 months and I can say that I really do feel more relaxed after using it. It takes getting used to, but I can now have my wife lay on top of me and it doesn't even faze me anymore. Give it a try, I recommend it.

I have used this mat every day since it came. It is a great circulation booster. Typically, I incorporate it into my stretching routine at the end of my daily workout. It's great for the back, neck, shoulders or basically any part of the body which requires tension relief. Standing on the mat provides a great foot massage. I recommend keeping a light fabric between skin and mat to begin with, but with repeated use skin to mat contact provides even deeper benefits. I have poor circulation, particularly in my hands and feet, and using the Shakti Mat definitely helps.

I haven't used this product in all the ways it can be, mostly use it only for the feet, and tried lying on the back a few times. It feels great, and does seem to release tension in areas. I keep it in my office, and walk on it frequently during the day. - Acupressure - Stress Relief - Acupuncture - Back Pain Relief
