Hello! Many people with restless leg syndrome have reported relief using The Shakti Mat. The acupressure helps to relax the muscles and improve circulation, which can reduce discomfort. Results may vary, but it's definitely worth trying!

@@ShaktiMat1 Cheers!

Hey Paula! I'm glad you loved the tutorial! For tight legs, I recommend starting with 5-10 minutes in each position. Listen to your body, and gradually increase the time as you get more comfortable.

Hey! If pressing down on The Mat is causing pain in your wrists, it's important to listen to your body. We don’t recommend continuing any movement that exacerbates pain or discomfort. If wrist pain is a recurring issue, it might be helpful to consult with a healthcare professional who can provide specific advice tailored to your needs.

@@ShaktiMat1 Thanks but healthcare professionals don’t know squat

@@ShaktiMat1 i’ve been to several “healthcare professionals“ and they have never been able to help me with my wrist pain. I thought you’d have more ideas on why it is hurting and what to do since you know all about the mat.

Thank you, Bobby! :)

Thank you for your question! Yes, you can use a lower back stretcher along with The Shakti Acupressure Mat and Pillow combo. They can complement each other well to enhance your overall relaxation and relief. Just be sure to listen to your body and adjust as needed for comfort. If you have any more questions or need further guidance, feel free to reach out!

@@ShaktiMat1 thank you, it’s been awhile since i used my acupuncture mat, thank you for the tutorials

We are sorry for the trouble. We will check it at the backend. Did you test it on a stable network connection?

@@ShaktiMat1 Of course I did! It looks like others have had the same issue. No-one can hear you.

Hello! The Shakti Acupressure Mats can have different effects depending on when you use them. Many people find that using The Shakti Acupressure Mat before bedtime helps them relax and promotes better sleep. On the other hand, using it in the morning can help energize your body and prepare you for the day ahead. It's like a workout for your relaxation and energy levels! Feel free to try it out at different times of the day to see what works best for you😊.

Great to hear!

Keep going!

Great to hear!

I'm glad to hear that you find your Shakti Mat so comfortable! If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out.

@@ShaktiMat1 I love it, I use it before meditating. I'm going to start (try) yoga also. This will help a lot.

Hi Melissa! Absolutely! Many users have reported feeling more energized and refreshed after using The Shakti Acupressure Mat. While individual results may vary, we encourage you to give it a try and experience the potential benefits for yourself. If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out!😊

Thank you 😊

Hey, David!Hi To use The Shakti Mat on your calves, thighs, and legs, I'd suggest: 1) Set your Shakti Mat on either a bolster or pillow. You can then lie on your back, lift your legs to a 90-degree angle, and slowly set the calves onto the Shakti Spikes. You may need to remove a layer of clothing so that you can feel the spikes on your skin directly. 2) Check out our TH-cam video tutorial here to see exactly how to use the Shakti Mat on your legs! th-cam.com/video/ugpE79XEjlA/w-d-xo.html 😊

Hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for sharing the feedback.

Thanks!

Best of luck!

You are so welcome!

Thank you for sharing your experience with us! It sounds like you had quite a profound and transformative session with The Shakti Mat. While everyone's experience may vary, it's not uncommon to feel intense sensations during acupressure sessions, especially when targeting specific areas like the abdomen. We're glad to hear that you've been feeling relief and experiencing positive effects afterward. Remember to listen to your body and adjust your sessions as needed.

Thanks!

Thank you for your question! While there isn't a strict minimum time for every position, many users find that around 20 minutes is effective for most areas. However, feel free to adjust the time based on your comfort level and individual needs.

Thanks for sharing!

Exact, the first this time I felt energized and a sense of detoxing. The next three times I reached a level of complete relaxation. Deep sleep. It is so interesting about using it on a floor, or using a blanket to customize it

Awesome!

Thanks!

Thank you so much for your kind words and for being part The Shakti community! We're thrilled to hear that you're enjoying The Shakti sessions. Your support means a lot to us.

We're delighted to hear that you're finding relaxation with your Shakti! Many users experience a transition from initial discomfort to deep relaxation, often leading to better sleep. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. It's important to listen to your body and gradually adjust to the sensations of The Shakti Acupressure Mat. If 20-25 minutes feels challenging, you might consider starting with shorter sessions and gradually increasing the duration as you become more accustomed to it. Remember, consistency is key, and with time, you may find it more comfortable.

Hi, Iwa! Essentially, the fewer pressure points on the Shakti Mat, the more intensive the acupressure experience, as the body weight is distributed over fewer points. That's why The Advance Mat has lesser spikes vs. The Original Mat.

Thanks!

I use it for years now and I don't think it ever will

Awesome!

I love my mat and neck rest - not sure what that this is called, but it’s like a spiky semi-cylindrical pillow. Bought them both four months ago, and they’re just great. I’m lying on it right now! It’s a great wake-up thing in the morning as part of my exercise routine and personally after about a week or two of using it every day, I have found it very easy. I started using the mat in the evenings, but once I got used to it, I ended up falling asleep on it. So I switched to mornings as I felt it was better getting me going at the start of the day. Slight surprise to me is that once you get used to lying on it on your back, you can also lie on it in other orientations, and it somehow doesn’t seem to hurt the way it initially did when I first tried it on my back. So maybe your body gets used to the idea of it as well as to the actual contact. The only bit that slightly hurts is peeling yourself from it at the end of a session! But I think it’s wonderful, and I’m really glad I bought the mat and neck rest - and hope my experience helps anyone else thinking of buying one.

Thanks for your comment! 🤗 The Shakti Mat is not a registered medical device, so generally we can't give any advice around this. What the Shakti does is support the body and mind through the modality called acupressure. The Shakti Mat is the leading acupressure mat, consciously crafted in India for truly mindful self-care. People most often use The Shakti to ease their mind and body from stress and experience deeper sleep. It's also amazing for providing temporary pain relief and increasing calmness. ✨If you're concerned about using The Shakti Mat for a specific medical reason, we'd suggest asking your doctor before using.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing your experience with The Shakti community!

Hi @lumiao! We are sorry if the video didn't cover the complete information. The Shakti Mat® is designed to relieve stress and tension and unlock deep relaxation through the healing power of acupressure. Acupressure is an ancient healing practice that has been used in India for over 5,000 years. Covered in thousands of spikes that press deeply into the muscles. It's an at-home alternative to full body massage or acupuncture. When the acu-points are pressed, energy (also called chi or prana) flows through the body freely. This allows the body and mind to unwind, and releases stress and tension.✨🌵

@@ShaktiMat1 I have one and I love it, I'm just curious to know why/how it works. If there is any ayurvedic or scientific explanation for how it relieves muscle tension and why it has the effect it does

Awesome! Keep enjoying The Shakti sessions!

@@ShaktiMat1 ... 10 straight days now. 30 minutes in the morning with my back on the mat and the curved pillow against my neck and upper shoulders -- followed by a cold shower. I'm a semi professional musician and practice up to 5 hours a day. Much more relaxed back and shoulder muscles throughout the day. Rotator cuff issue all but gone.

Hey @hennieboesveldable, we completely understand how getting off The Shakti Mat can be an exciting challenge on its own. We all tend to have our personal ways to peel ourselves from The Shakti. Some like to get it over with and sit up quickly (think of that way like ripping off a bandaid) while others slowly roll of it. Some lift up one side of the body, then fold the mat over (spikes to spikes) to lower the body, while others say that it is not nearly so stingy and sore if you try to get off slowly! Hope you find the best way for yourself!🧡

Hi, Yes, The Shakti Mat can be used by individuals with a hernia. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before using The Mat to ensure it is suitable for your specific condition. They can provide personalized guidance based on your medical history and advise on any modifications or precautions to take.

It's normal to struggle at first.... remember that good things can take time! Please add a thin layer of the clothing in the beginning to avoid a direct contact. Try listening to the first video on our Shakti Shala App which will guide you through those first 20 minutes on your Shakti Mat.✨ Download Shakti Shala on the Apple App store, or Google Play! Type in 'Shakti Shala' to find it. 😊

Wow, that is a fantastic question! The Best Selling Shakti Mat® is an acupressure tool that provides users with so many benefits✨. It has thousands of plastic spikes on it, which during a Shakti session, apply pressure on the focused part of the body. Most users start by using it on the back. This process leads to de-stressing and relaxation as the spikes work to hydrate the tissues, enhance circulation to the area, and rejuvenate the whole body. 😊Think of it as a supplemental tool to massage or acupuncture.

Fantastic, Filipo!

Hi Hobbes, 1. Lie down comfortably on your back and place The Shakti Acupressure Mat on a flat surface. 2. Position The Mat/Pillow beneath your upper back, aligning it with the right side of your trapezius muscle, where the phrenic nerve is located. 3. Gently lower your body onto The Mat, allowing the spikes or nodes to apply pressure to the targeted area. You may adjust the positioning slightly to ensure proper contact with the right trapezius muscle. Please note that while acupressure may offer relaxation and potential relief, it's not intended as a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment.

You can do it! Keep going!

@@ShaktiMat1 - thank you!!

Well done, Dareuhh!

Thanks, Kesha!

Yes, you can!

🎉❤

Hi, Kim! I'd suggest you use a different item to support The Shakti Mat. the sharp spikes on The Pillow may damage The Shakti Mat if you were to use it underneath. A regular pillow would work!

Wonderful, Sonja!

Wth does that even mean lol. "My Prana got wild"

Well after two minutes I felt pulsing all over my body Sorry for the inconvenient expression seems that it bothered you😊

Thanks, Tim for sharing your experience with The Shakti Community!

Hi, there! Yes, you can use your Shakti Mat in the different ways. Wrap your Shakti Mat around a towel or pillow to mimic the rounded shape of the pillow. This can be used to target the neck, back & hip areas.
