Acupressure mat ShantiMat – Pure linen and coconut fibers – Turquoise

Features

• Therapeutic acupressure massage mat for personal use
• Stimulates blood flow and lymph circulation
• Aids relaxation, revitalisation and pain relief
• ShantiMat can release endorphins that help to boost energy levels, relieve stress, reduce headache and back pain and improve circulation.
• This modern "bed of nails" combines the best experience an acupressure mat can offer with a beautiful design and the highest quality materials. The underlying principle of Shantimat is simple: over 5000 tiny spikes stimulate your body's bioactive points to boost your energy, reduce pain, relieve tension and stress, thus improving sleep and overall health. Their action on the skin triggers the release of endorphins, a natural painkiller, as well as oxytocin, which produces relaxation. It can also compensate for a lack of physical activity in such cases as plane flights, prolonged travel by car, prolonged work at the computer or illnesses connected with immobility. It took nearly a year and lots of cooperation and consultations with therapists working with acupressure, massage and yoga to create this inspired-by-nature design. Shantimat is 100% natural: pure linen exterior cover, coconut fiber mattress and pure un-dyed cotton mattress cover. A zipper allows you to remove the outer cover. Wash by hand.

Product Description

How to Use: The most common position is to lie on your back. The nerves branch out from the back to the rest of the body, so a back treatment affects the whole body (However, the mat can also be used on specific areas of the body). The first time you lie on the mat you may want to use a special cloth to soften the pressure of the spikes. Using Shantimat should feel nicely painful, but not too painful. The flowers on the mat have rounded tips and cannot harm you if you are using it properly. The main rule of lying on the mat is applying the weight of the body evenly over the whole surface. We experience pressure differently depending on the shape and weight of our body. Lie down slowly and carefully, leaning on your arms for temporary support. Relax! Try not to move around. Sit back up and lie down again if you wish to alter your position. The first 5 to 20 minutes Shantimat acts as an energizer, and after 25 minutes it acts as a relaxant. You might experience some discomfort during the first moments due to the new sensation. Some people even consider it very uncomfortable at first. That's OK. It means that Shantimat is doing its job. This is exactly how it works! You will feel the discomfort gradually decreasing in one to four minutes. Remember: it's worth it! After using Shantimat a few times, you will be longing to come back home from work and lie down on it, as it is such a relief after a stressful day! Our advice is that you lie on Shantimat approximately 30-40 minutes. You can use Pranamat 4-5 days a week or, in cases of pain or illness, it can be used for 21 days straight and then allowing your body to rest for 1 week followed by usage 2-4 times a week. Your body needs some rest to avoid addiction. Using Pranamat is like a massage; you do not use it every day. [Not recommended for pregnant women, hemophiliacs, or people suffering from psoriasis or heart conditions.] Dimensions: 18" x 29" with 221 flowers.
