Does the Acupressure Mat Hurt?
It provides a strange sensation which may take a short time getting used to. After a while you get used to the sensation and together with the release of oxytocin it actually feels relaxing. When getting used to the acupressure mat it maybe recommended only using it for a short time and wearing a thin t-shirt until you get fully used to the sensation.

- The acupressure mats have 6237/7293 pressure points respectively and each mat is constructed with 189/211 flowers. Each flower consists of 33 pressure points.

Who can use the acupressure mat?

It provides the greatest impact on you if you are stressed oiut, sleep poorly, have low energy, muscle tension, stiffness, headache, back or neck pain, or simply need a better and more complete sleep / rest to get more daily energy. Always consult your doctor in case of documented medical diagnoses or concerns.
Does the acupressure mat produces results?
- We receive daily appreciative calls and letters regarding the effects of the acupressure mat.
What happens in the body?
- The blood circulation and oxygen flow to the body’s muscles and organs seem to increase. Blood pressure is reduced and it is the pain signals sent to the brain which releases the body’s “feel-good” hormones. The body’s endorphins and oxytocins increase and give a relaxing effect which makes the acupressure mat suitable if you have difficulty sleeping. You gain energy, alertness, lower blood pressure and increased wellbeing. Many testify to strong pain relief and better sleep at night.
Can children use the mat?
- Sure, they experience the same benefits as adults and the mat can be used before bedtime to relax. Just be sure to put a cloth in between, as children have more sensitive skin. However the acupressure mat is not a toy and should not be used without adult supervision.
Is the mat hygienic?
- Yes. Mix a little detergent in warm water and wash by hand. Rinse thoroughly several times and drip dry at room temperature or with the benefit of fresh air. Do not use a washing machine or tumble dryer, as the acupressure mat and machinery may be damaged.
How does the acupressure mat affect the skin?
- Small pits on the skin will occur after using the acupressure mat but they usually disappear after a few hours or in rare cases after a few days. The redness that occurs is due to the increased blood circulation and is a positive effect of the acupressure mat’s calibrated pressure points.
Can I use the acupressure mat on other parts of the body than the back?
- Of course you can, but because there is no documentation of increased effects when used on other body parts, we would recommend that you treat the back first. The back is after all the body’s largest single treatment area, and the peptide hormones that are released affect the entire body. Neck and shoulder areas can be point treated to good effect. We then recommend that you put a pillow under the acupressure mat for the best effect.
I have acne and scars on my back; can I use the mat anyway?
- Yes. It should not make any difference if you have acne or scars on the body when using the acupressure mat. If you have open acne wounds or scars that have not yet healed, we do not recommend using the mat as it can make the wounds worse. But otherwise it is no problem.
Can I use the acupressure mat even though I am overweight?
- Yes. It is no problem at all. It should not be painful to use the acupressure mat; it should feel great but still hurt slightly. It is the pain signals to the brain that release the body’s “feel-good” hormones. You can adjust the pressure of the acupressure mat by using a lighter t-shirt or a sheet in between.
Is it dangerous to lie on the acupressure mat for more than 40 minutes?
- No. The only risk is that you get deeper marks on your back but they disappear after a while. We would not recommend lying on the acupressure mat for over two hours daily, but no harm is done if it only happens occasionally, many people fall asleep on the acupressure mat.
Should I not use the acupressure mat during a cold?
- On the contrary, you should feel free to use the acupressure mat during a cold! The acupressure mat produces a reduced stress level, which is when the infection breaks out, because the body’s immune system takes care of the sick cells. (The same as when you get sick during a holiday, when the body has a chance to repair itself.) You can almost never prevent a cold from coming, you have to let is progress and let the body repair itself properly.
Can I use the acupressure mat if I have or have had some form of heart disease?
- If you have any heart problems you should use the acupressure mat with caution, lie down for a few minutes at a time and see what feels best for yourself. But there is one exception and that is if you have low blood pressure. The acupressure mat can lower blood pressure further when used, which can lead to fainting when you stand up. You must also be careful if you have just had a heart attack. Always consult your doctor before use at the slightest uncertainty.
Can I use the acupressure mat if I have an inflammation of the neck / back?
- Absolutely, it can even speed up the healing process, when the blood circulation really gets to work on the inflamed area.
Can I use the acupressure mat if I have infected wounds on my back?
- In cases where the user has open wounds, infected or not, we advise against the use of the acupressure mat.
