Calmness Acupressure Pillow

Using an acupressure mat has serveral benefits. They include improved relaxation, clarity, and pain reduction. It also boosts energy and sleep. Here's a summary of the advantages:

Enhanced Relaxation and Mental Clarity:

The acupressure mat helps you relax. It does this by stimulating pressure points. This promotes calmness and reduces overstimulation.

Regular use can clear the mind and improve focus. It makes it easier to manage stress and anxiety.

Reduction of Discomfort and Pain:

The mat's pressure points improve energy flow. This can reduce discomfort from muscle tension, headaches, and chronic pain.

Endorphins: When your body experiences pain, it releases endorphins. Endorphins are your body's natural painkillers and mood enhancers. They reduce pain perception. They can create euphoria, often called the "runner's high." Using an acupressure mat triggers the release of endorphins. This helps to ease pain and improve well-being.

Oxytocin: Your body responds to touch and pressure, such as the sensation from the spikes on an acupressure mat. When you experience this touch, your body produces oxytocin. It is called the "love hormone." Oxytocin links to comfort, relaxation, and bonding. The initial pain from the spikes triggers the release of oxytocin. This can lead to a sense of deep relaxation and reduced stress over time. This hormone boosts mood, relaxes the body, and makes the mat more enjoyable.

Improved Energy Levels and Sleep Quality:

Energy Levels: Using it regularly can raise energy. It's doing this by easing pain and discomfort. This leads to a sense of well-being.

Sleep quality: The relaxation and pain relief provided by the mat can improve sleep quality. This benefits energy levels and overall health. Who doesn't want to start their day rested and energized?

In our experience, and that of most users, 20 to 40 minutes per session of use gives the best results for improving circulation, reducing stress, and managing pain.

We recommend that beginners start with 10 minutes to get used to the pressure points. When this feels comfortable, increase the time by 5 minutes.

Choosing the right acupressure mat depends on the comfort and quality you expect. The Calmness Acupressure Mat is our bestseller model and a great model from which to start the journey. It gives you all the benefits you are looking for.

The Calmness Eco Acupressure Mat will suit you if you want a more durable choice. This mat is made of linen and has a coconut fiber filling. This makes the mat stiffer and makes it last longer. Plus, because the mat is sturdier, it gives a more intense feeling.

You can use an acupressure mat in a variety of ways to treat various parts of your body. Here are some popular uses:

Back and shoulders: The most common way to use a nail mat is by lying on your back. This helps relieve tension and pain in your back and shoulders.

Lower back: Place the nail mat under your lower back while lying down. This can help relieve lower back pain and promote better posture.

Neck: Use a nail pillow in conjunction with the mat. Place the pillow under your neck for extra comfort and to reduce tension in your neck muscles.

Feet: Stand on the nail mat to stimulate the pressure points in your feet. This can be particularly effective for relieving pain and improving overall energy levels. If standing on the mat is too painful, sit in a chair with the mat in front of you. Apply pressure if you want more intensity. Read more about using an acupressure mat on feet here.

The ideal frequency of using an acupressure mat depends on your personal preferences and needs. Some use the mat daily. Others find once a week sufficient. On average, most users like 3 to 4 times a week. Experiment to find out what works well for you.

Start with a frequency that feels comfortable for you and adjust it based on what you feel comfortable with. Listen to your body to avoid overuse. If you feel discomfort or pain, it is a good idea to take a break. There is nothing wrong with putting the mat aside for a while and rediscovering the benefits.
