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.

TRIED AND TRUE INNER

Lightweight and hypoallergenic – this is the foam that put the Shakti Mat on the map. It’s thoroughly tested to ensure all the benefits of acupressure, day after day, year after year.

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.

• Tension-free muscles
• Increased circulation
• Mental clarity
• Calm and focus
• Deeper sleep
• An ongoing sense of wellbeing
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.
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.

Amazing
New to Shakti a friend had mentioned the experience and personal benefits they had found using the mat and pillow. I thought I would purchase and try as a gift to myself as part of my own wellness journey. I have been pleasantly amazed at how positive my experience has been. I felt personal benefits from using the mat and pillow very quickly. The positive effects of using Shakti has been a wonderful experience. I look forward with enthusiasm to using the mat and pillow as part of my daily wellness routine.

Love it!
I debated getting a mat and pillow like this for years. I wish I’d done it sooner. I absolutely love my Shakti and highly recommend it!

No pain no gain
I prepared myself for the pain. It was as expected an 8 out of 10 for the 1st minute but at the 6 th minute your body adjusts and this amazing heat and calm takes over your body. Amazing for relaxation and healing. Don’t hesitate. Invest today in tomorrow’s wellbeing

Painful at first. But worth it.
So, at first when I lay on the shakti mat and pillow, it hurts. It’s like laying on a bed of hypodermic needles and/or broken glass.
I’m not going to lie.. it’s uncomfortable.
But then that eases and then you feel an intense heat all across your back and shoulders and neck.
The heat calms down into a comfortable warmth and then you relax and feel unbelievably comfortable.
Before you know it your 20 minute timer has gone off and you tell Siri to do another 10.
When you’re done, you peel yourself off.. and it kinda feels like pulling black masking tape off your back (but weirdly not as painful as you’d imagine) and within seconds you actually feel good. Your back feels better, your neck feels better and that’s when you realise that the first 1-2 minutes of discomfort were actually worth it.
Honestly, I was sceptical at first, but it really does work. Stick with it and reap the rewards.
I’ve struggled with pain in my lower back and mid back and tightness across my shoulders, traps, and neck for a while and this may and pillow is really helping!

Topper!!
Enorm deugddoend! Mijn nek is achteraf helemaal ontspannen. Klein minpuntje, het duwt soms ook enorm op het bot van mijn hoofd.
