Acupressure Mats have been used since thousands of years ago for relaxation exercises, meditation and yoga, as well as for healing the body and releasing emotional, physical and mental blockages. This acumat has shown to improve people’s well-being on a daily basis. The regular usage of the acupuncture mat may bring you many positive effects: Gain of energy, better sleep, alertness, lower blood pressure, decreased muscular tension, reduced pain, stress relief, state of deep relaxation, increased metabolism, improved blood circulation, strengthened immune system and increased uptake of oxygen. Pressure from the spikes on the acumat activates the body’s own production of 2 substances: endorphins – natural painkiller hormone and oxytocin – feel-good hormone.
