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.
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 your items free of charge for an exchange or refund within 60 days of receiving your order, provided the goods are in the same condition as when you received them and purchased at full-price or on a limited-time promotion. We do not accept change-of-mind returns on limited edition items, clearance (sale or marked-down) items.
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.
WHAT MAKES CLASSIC, CLASSIC?
SOFT FOAM INNERS
Choose between tried-and-true Classic Foam or our signature organic Blissfoam™. Classic Foam is firmer, lightweight and hypoallergenic. Blissfoam™ is soft enough to sink into, yet firm enough to push back. Both are perfect for deep tension relief.
ORGANIC COTTON OUTER
Soft enough to lie on for hours, strong enough to last a lifetime. Developed with nothing but your wellbeing in mind. Responsibly-dyed, GOTS-certified, and handstitched, too.
SIGNATURE SHAKTI SPIKES
The sharper the better, and regardless of which intensity you choose: ours are the sharpest around. They nestle into tension and activate your acupoints instantly. Anything less and you’re wasting your time.

The most popular way to Shakti is in bed, before sleep. Using the Pillow as an extension of your Shakti Mat lets you target your neck and get even more relaxation from your downtime. Its shape is also perfect for releasing tension in hard-to-reach curves.
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.

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.

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.
Level 1
Lying on spikes is weird, so we made sure this is the perfect place to start. Expect a balance of initial discomfort and deep release. Ideal for anyone new to acupressure.Level 2
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 Level 2.Level 3
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. -
Blissfoam™
• 100% plant-based foam
• Organic in Premium Mats, recycled in Premium Pillows
• Encased in organic cotton for natural rubber sensitivities
• Cradles your body and molds each spike into deep tension for a next-level release.Classic
• The same stuffing used in bedding and furniture
• Lightweight
• Hypoallergenic
• Tried and tested to ensure all the benefits of acupressure -
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.
