The Shakti Mat™ combines the ancient practice of acupressure with cutting edge technology, allowing you to regularly engage your body’s healing functions for the cost of a single professional massage.
The bed of nails is an ancient tool with its roots in Indian mysticism. With its origin, dating back thousands of years, the bed of nails is a well tested tool for healing the body and releasing emotional, physical and mental blockages.
6000 acupressure points make the Shakti Mat™ a very effective tool for releasing tension and inducing a state of deep relaxation. When you use the Shakti Mat™ regularly for 20 to 40 minutes, you enable your body to release endorphins which stimulates the release of oxytocin, the ‘feel-good hormone’. As a result, your body relaxes and releases stress, promoting restful sleep as a result of relief from stressful back and neck pain. The Shakti Mat™ has been used to: Relieve neck and back pain; Reduce stress; Get a good night’s sleep; and Increase energy. The Shakti Mat™ promotes the release of large quantities of endorphins, the wellbing hormone, as well as a range of other calming hormones. This has a very rejuvenating and relaxing effect. The Shakti Mat™ increases blood circulation and the uptake of oxygen. It has been used to increase energy, decrease stress levels, get a good night sleep, muscular tension, sciatica, migraine, digestive problems, depression etc. Shakti Mat™SPECIFICS Size: 68 x 42 cm Color: THIS LISTING IS FOR A GREEN MAT.

The orange color is commonly used by yogis due to its positive effect on the consciousness, as it yields an open and more accepting mind. How to use the Shakti Mat™ The Shakti Mat™ can be used pretty much all over the body. From the spine, the nerves reach all parts of the body – which means that the effect on the back will affect the whole body. Place your Shakti Mat™on the bed or on a soft surface. Use a neck pillow or a rolled up towel underneath the mat to support your neck. Lie in a comfortable position so that your skin rests in contact with the points. Relax and breathe deeply. Initially, 10-15 minutes spent on the mat may be enough, but you may gradually increase your sessions to 20-40 minutes. It is not dangerous to spend more time on the mat, or to fall asleep on the mat. Use it when you have time and feel the urge, every day if possible. Rest and relaxation or gentle activity is recommended after the session, so as not to disrupt the released energy. Use the Shakti Mat™ to renew your energy and recuperate for example at a short break at work. You will soon find yourself less stressed out and more efficient at carrying out your tasks. We recommend daily use of the Shakti Mat™ for optimum results. As is the case of therapy or exercise, regularity is the key to success. With regular use the deeply held stress and tensions are released and you will experience a permanent feeling of ease. Cleaning your Shakti Mat™ When required you may handwash your Shakti Mat™ with some detergent in lukewarm water, rinse thoroughly and hang dry. Avoid washing machines and tumble dryers as it may damage the points. Using the Shakti Mat™ on your travels
Take your Shakti Mat™ with you when travelling, to save space and keep the weight down you may remove and leave the styrofoam at home. If you use the Shakti Mat™ in bed you don’t need the styrofoam mattress anyway, as it will be soft enough with the bed’s own mattress – which will shape itself to your body.

What People Say “I started using my Shakti Mat™ bed of nails in January 2008 and have been lying, sitting and standing on it literally every day since then. After having practiced Kundalini yoga for 15 years I can say that my yoga has reached new heights since I started using my Shakti Mat™ in my morning practice. I use my Shakti Mat™ för the long rest and it has given my practice a new dimension. I feel fantastic.”— Göran Boll, Institutet för Medicinsk Yoga”I have been working as a teacher of active relaxation and meditation for many years. When I first found the Shakti Mat™ it instantly appealed to me. I get into a deeply relaxed state of being after 20 minutes and I then feel the tingling sensation in the shoulders and arms where my tensions used to be. I bought a couple of mats to allow the course participants to try it out and after 2 test sessions 75% of the participants bought their own mats and it took off from there. It is a true joy to sell this product as the jungle drums are calling all by themselves and I keep selling more and more.” — Marie Levin “I think back to the old iron beds of nails used way back. They were used and did help then, so why should it not work today! I have been using my Shakti Mat™ for 8 months. It has become a comfortable evening routine before the lights are switched off. The points differ in sharpness depending upon how my day has been, they clearly tell me about the level of stress and hurry. A nice feeling of warmth spreads after a few minutes. I tend to fall asleep on the Shakti Mat™ and wake up after 30-60 minutes. When I travel I always bring my bed of nails.” — Maret Moks, 80 years old, yogateacher “I hear a lot of positive feedback about the Shakti Mat, like: the second best invention after the wheel, positively addictive, better sleep, have found an inner calm, etc. ”
