Lying down on Shakti spikes activates hundreds of acupoints to promote circulation, release tension, and naturally restore the energy that flows within you.
It’s a sensation to start, but after a few minutes the tingle turns into a soft warmth that brings a meditative state with it. We call it Shakti bliss.
Skin-to-spike contact lets the spikes work their best, and focusing on your breath will help you sink to relaxation sooner.
The most popular way to use The Shakti Mat is by lying down. Make sure your neck, shoulders, and back are in contact with the spikes. Other areas include the back of your legs, and your feet if you’re feeling brave.
Think of Shakti Pillows as an extension of your Shakti Mat. The most popular way to use them is while you lie on them.
The Wonderball is our on-demand acupressure tool: perfect whenever you need a quick reset. Using it is as easy as picking a tense area and getting your roll on.
Roll it between your hands, up your arms, into your side body - even over your face - and feel tension release after a minute.
The cork stand it comes with is perfect for releasing tension under your arms and wrists, too.
Take it to work and keep it on your desk as a reminder to relax now and again. Or keep it at home to get a little more from your downtime.
Acupress Back & Belly Band
You can't always lie down when your back and belly give up. It’s why we developed a targeted acupressure tool that moves with you.
Apply the Acupress Back & Belly Band by choosing where you’d like it to work its magic. Attach the spikes to the centre of the band to release your lower back. Move them to the inner strap to relieve your belly.
Now comes the fun part. Fasten the inner straps so that the band fits comfortably around your waist, then tighten the outer straps to adjust the pressure of the spikes.
The straps can be tightened independently, so you can adjust them to match your mood.
Removing the acupressure pad entirely lets you support yourself without the spikes.
ACUPRESS LEG WRAPS
Wrapping a few thousand spikes around sore legs sounds like the opposite of relaxing. Sometimes, it’s just what they need.
Unlike The Mat and Pillow, the Headband works best with subtle pressure. It doesn’t need to be strapped tightly to activate the acupoints around your head.
Pick a Ring and place it on your finger.
Roll it up and down the entire length of each finger 20 times to stimulate each acupoint. Repeat this for each finger.
It’s that simple.
3 levels let you adjust the intensity as you need to, so feel free to experiment and discover which works best for you.
