In the beginning it feels like lying on spikes, but after a few minutes it feels as relaxing as a massage. It’s not magic, it’s acupressure–an ancient practice that’s been around for thousands of years. Expect thousands of hours of relief whenever you need it.

Take your wellness to new heights with the tried and true acupressure duo that’s so much better together. Target tension from the back of your head to the tip of your tailbone to unlock tight muscles, release inner tension, and rediscover deep sleep.
This bundle includes
-
Shakti Acupressure Mat:The spiky mat that could change your life, designed to be your base of relaxation.
- Shakti Acupressure Pillow:The classic neck pillow that amplifies every acupressure session with targeted relief in your achy neck and shoulders.
We get it, shopping for spikes to relax on is tricky when you can’t try them first. If Shakti isn’t right for you, you can return or exchange yours within 60 days. That being said, only 1 in every 271 customers returns their Mat, so we’re confident you’ll be converted too.
We’re not relaxed until you are. Everything we make is guaranteed from day one, and we’ll fix or replace anything faulty on arrival.
The first few minutes of lying on spikes is the hardest thing you’ll do. After that, you’ll wonder why you didn’t get on them sooner.
We developed the world’s only acupressure mat app from scratch to make it as easy as possible, so you can leapfrog the initial discomfort and double the benefits of your Shakti Mat.
1 Mat = 1 tree planted

What you need to know
• Deeper sleep
• Tension-free muscles
• Calm and focus
• Mental clarity
The most popular way to Shakti is in bed, before sleep. Combining the Mat and Pillow lets you target tension from the back of your neck to the base of your tailbone. Lie with the Shakti Mat under your back and shoulders first, and then place the Pillow under your neck.
Both tools can be used on their own to target tension as you need to. You can also combine them with yoga and meditation–either seated or through in savasana–to help incorporate acupressure into your recovery or wellbeing routine.
20 minutes is all you need for each spike to work its magic. To make it easy, you’ll receive free access to the world’s only acupressure mat app with purchase.
There are two things to consider when looking at intensities:
1. Acupressure is personal
2. Shakti spikes are much sharper than anything else out there.
Like the firmness of a mattress or the pressure of a massage – acupressure is the opposite of ‘one size fits all’. If you go too far in the beginning you’re less likely to build a solid habit. It’s why we offer three intensities that all unlock the benefits of acupressure.
Light
Lying on spikes is weird, so we made this a less intense option. Expect less initial discomfort thanks to more points per spike. Ideal for anyone unsure about acupressure.
Original
For the bold and brave. Fewer spikes = more discomfort, so commit to pushing through to unlock the deeper release on the other side if you are contemplating Original.
Advanced
Our deepest release isn’t the last stop on your journey – it’s only for the most experienced. Expect a serious sensation to start, with plenty of reward if you can handle it.
Organic Blissfoam™
• 100% plant-based foam
• Processed under the industry’s leading organic standard
• Encased in organic cotton for natural rubber sensitivities
• Cradles your body for next-level tension release
Classic
• The same stuffing used in bedding and furniture
• Lightweight
• Hypoallergenic
• Tried and tested to ensure all the benefits of acupressure
Will it hurt? Yes. But only for a little in the beginning.
Each spike responds to tension in your body, so more tension = more sensation. The initial “Ouch!” you feel activates your body’s pain response and tells it to send happiness hormones and pain-relief chemicals to the area you’re targeting. If those spikes aren’t sharp enough—or you’re beyond relaxed already—you won’t feel much.
After a few minutes, the tingling sensation fades into a deep, relaxing warmth. The redness is purely a circulation boost. You might even fall asleep.
Where acupuncture uses needles to pierce the skin, acupressure uses spikes to press against it. The key difference with a Shakti Mat is that you can activate multiple acupoints in as many seconds as it takes to lie on them, and you don’t need to book an appointment either.
HANDMADE IN THE HOME OF ACUPRESSURE
The first Shakti Mat was handmade in Varanasi, and everything we've done since has been with India in mind. Our craftspeople live, our raw materials are sourced there, and we continue to give back in every way we can.
GET TO THE POINT FAST(ER)
The world’s only acupressure mat app is your one-way ticket to doubling the benefits of your Shakti Mat. Shakti Shala is free with purchase, and it will guide you through all the initial discomfort faster than you can on your own.
