Thank you for showing all the different ways to use the pillow🎉
You are so welcome!
Excellent tutorial thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Ever wonder if those acupressure mats actually work or have one and wish you knew more ways to use it for pain relief and detox? Here are a few of my favorite ways to use an acupressure mat as well as some tips on getting the most out of your mat! Peace, Aprille
Do you have the official Shakti mat or a copy? I'm asking because I like saving money but I also like a quality product. I see a lot of copies on Amazon and I thought I would ask you about what you recommend
I have 3 different ones and they aren't all that different (from 20-60 in price range). I did find the Shakti mat was a bit harder or more firm but that's probably the only difference for me. I do like the sets that offer the pillow too. Look for some good ones with high ratings and reviews under $35 and I think you can find some great ones there!
@@YogaRangerStudio thank you for the info. I went on Amazon and Google and I was overwhelmed by all the choices in price points.
The mat knocks me out it’s great. However, when I use it during the day I have no energy left. Therefore, I recommend it before bed with meditation and you will sleep like a baby 👌
Does it drain energy from you, i thought it would just make you muscles sore.
This is the best I bought them few months ago and I use it before I go to sleep also, I just love it....
They work amazingly well, right? Glad you are enjoying your and thank you for watching! Peace, Aprille 🙏
This is so comprehensive and helpful !!! Thank you so much
So glad this helped you find more ways to use your acupressure mat - I definitely love mine and find new ways to use it all the time. Thanks for joining me here : )
Just found your channel how do you know if it’s a good Matt if it’s in a health food store? Tempted to buy one now lol what level is it ? Thanks so much for demonstrating how to use it subbed❤
I look for a couple of things - feel the spines and see if they are too sharp (I tend to like them a little less pointy and more soft rounded). How long is it and how wide? Will it cover your entire back? How many spines are on the mat (circles) and how many spines within each circle? Usually the label will say. More is often better as it distributes your weight more evenly across the multiple spines. You can Google Lens the brand to see comparisons and reviews on the internet as well. TJ Maxx and Marshalls often carry them at much lower prices if you have one of those near you : )
Hi Aprille, I wanted to ask you where you purchased your acupressure mat? Would you recommend getting one? Thanks for your help!
Hi Linda, I received one as a gift and the other came from Amazon.com. Most mats are pretty standard (some have more little spokes than others which I tend to like as it feels more comfortable to me). I think if you have chronic pain issues or insomnia, this is a great little investment. I have recommended them to several clients and they have had rave reviews. They can help release tension, soften the body and because the spokes get a little deeper into the skin, they stimulate the lymphatic system. Prices range from $20-125 depending on the company but I don't find that the higher price gets you much more : ) Having tried 3 of them - I don't see a huge difference really! Let me know if you have any other questions! (BTW, I use mine weekly - either in bed while reading/before sleep or for rolling out on tense areas). Peace, Aprille This is the one I use in this video - amzn.to/2L1L3xa
Yes! Even for this mat you have a video! I just got mine a week ago and it feels so helpful in relieving my tension and connecting to my body. Thank you Aprille!
Wonderful! I definitely love my mat and find it super helpful in relieving tension throughout the body. Enjoy Wendy!
Really nice of you to respond to every comment. Very unique and appreciated😊
Always! I love to read the comments and connect.
Thank you Aprille - I have one (mat only) that I use with my chi machine but never thought about how to use this in other ways. I will look into the pillow now. Another incredible innovative idea for us. ❤️❤️
I bet it works wonders with the chi machine! You can use these mats in so many ways and I love how it stimulates lymphatic health as well. Hugs! Thanks for watching! Peace, Aprille 🐈🐾💖💖💖
Thanks for all of this info. The best video i have seen on various uses!
Wow, thanks!
I also love to use mine on my face and ears ,resting each side of my face on my mat .Also too on my tail bone .Top of ones head ,right on the crown chakra is brilliant for relaxation and hair growth .Simply place the crown of your head on the mat ,as if about to go into head stand , only omit an actual head stand .
Thanks for sharing!!
Im so pleased I have found your channel. Seems like I could learn a lot from your teachings. Have a Blessed day.💖🙏
I'm so glad! Thank you for joining me here!
Just bought one of these and your tutorial was great! Your voice is so calm & relaxing as well xD
Thanks!
Glad I could help! They are really useful and I find myself finding all sorts of ways to use them each day to relieve tension and pain. Enjoy and thanks for watching! Peace, Aprille
Yep and they sure are :) Will be using them most days now to help relieve the pain and tension. You're welcome and thank you!
Peace =D Justin
Love this! I have had my mat for years and have been thinking I needed to use it for more than just my back.
I love my mat and use it when I watch TV or read a book. I even loaned it out the other day to a friend who had back pain and they said it helped SO much! It's amazing how relaxing it is!
I'm excited to start using this mat pillow combination and my question is how does one use it for help with sleep
You can use it right before bedtime to relax the entire body. I don't suggest falling asleep on it but maybe sitting up with it or lying down on it right before bed will help release tension.
I bought a mat and pillow yesterday. Before I went to bed I layed on it for about 10 minutes with a t-shirt on. When I got up, I felt very energized for a few minutes, then got very sleepy, went tot bed and slept for over 9 hours. I'm amazed how simple this is. So I think the best way to answer your question is, just do it and find out. How did you get on?
Crazy.. yesterday I knew I had to get one… I’m still nervous but watching videos and I came across yours… not too may Aprille’s out there❤️❤️❤️✌️
Glad I could help! Very true - not many out there! In fact I think you are the 3rd ever I have met : ) Choose one that isn't too expensive (around the $20-30 mark) and I think you will be surprised at how useful it is. In fact, I will be using mine later today to relieve some back pain.
My aunty 70 yrs+ had two spinal surgeries working mainly around L4/L5. Had replaced the screws & adjust the nerves around this area. The back pain came back again. Can this acupressure help ?
It might. Acupressure helps release the tension in response to pain. For me, when I have pain, my muscles and body tense up and tighten up therefore causing more pain and the cycle continues. This helps you fully relax and my clients have had incredible results with back pain - feeling much better!
Thanks! Now, I have more uses for my set.
Glad I could help!
I have the pillow and the cushion. I gotta get this mat.
It's amazing!
Does this help with muscle recovery after training?
Yes... Helps with circulation, tension release and reduction in pain and stiffness post workout. These also work great for sleep if used right before bed.
Great video thank you
Wonderful to hear Pamela and I hope you have a great day!
Where is the link for the back pain video you mentioned?
I have several on my channel. There is an entire playlist dedicated to this subject:

Thanks!
@@YogaRangerStudio I mean the one about the accpressure mat for the back.
@@barbaraferron7994 You mean my other acupressure mat review I think? th-cam.com/video/HBVWgq87u-M/w-d-xo.html
Can I benefit from this as I have a very painful sciatica problem?
If it's inflamed and super painful right now it might be better to rest it for a day or two then slowly integrate some stretches and the mat in.
The Yoga Ranger Studio with Aprille Walker this has been a problem for 2 months, go to 5 different med.professionals- accupuncture weekly, Physio weekly, chirop.weekly, remedial msg therapy bi-weekly, reflexology, no relief, I’m doing stretches but I’m also at work Mon-Fri computer work for 8 hrs daily. Need relief, otc meds going to give me ulcers eventually.
@@johannafriedt6362 me to 🙁 sounds exactly like my story , had spinal epidural , worked for couple of days , but back to meds , trying this matt now
@@coinshooters I’m in hospital now. Dr had ordered mri and shows I have extra bone that has to be removed on my spinal column pain is nerve pain
@@johannafriedt6362 hope all goes well , I had MRI too was recommended spine decompression surgery, but being a bit if a coward , trying alternative , 🤞
